    Ilion: "So, how do you uproot more than one Spine at a time? How do you avoid them getting shot one by one while they move forward individually? Also, he has Cannons so my Roaches will get shot at! And what in the name of Jebus is a trans fuse? Sounds like a Terran upgrade. Silly Lowko, I'm playing Zerg.

Watching the pros go at it is fun and all, but watching low level matchs are a riot, and far more entertaining, along with being alot more informative as you can actually see what bad plays look like, where as in the pro matches, if you see a bad play, its still a great play compared to what a lot of the lower levels do.

  • @Cowclops

    Easy to armchair quarterback a silver game as a plat but I still like to frame stuff like this as "even if I was bad at splitting my attention, even if i was bad at micro, even if I didn't know when to expand..." all the zerg had to do was start cranking out 4 queens and piles of hydras and then a-moved. Seems like his biggest issue was NOT a-moving because he'd walk past stuff without shooting at it while also taking damage, like giving away half your hitpoints for free while doing no damage.
    I guess the silver lining is it would be pretty easy for him to improve his play - spend your money, and know when to a-move (which is very close to always when it comes to zerg, especially at this level).

    honestly? that protoss wasn't half bad.
    sure he got absolutely ruined initially, but instead of panicking and giving up, he took his probes, went ahead and rebuilt in an unexpected spot, defended like a champ, didn't wait for the protoss death ball to build up but instead did genuinely good smaller attacks which in the end won him the game, he knows what upgrades are, he micro'd a bit, and he was constantly producing, or at least trying to, and he didn't even get cocky once he got a lot of void rays but instead was fully prepared to go carriers and tempests if his void rays were pushed back, he had the confidence that the void rays will clean up, sure, *_but he had a backup plan._*
    good going, tricks.
