    I do this ALL the time on ladder. I know its BM.

    If I know, for example, that I'm on 4 bases to their 2 and I just killed their army, I sometimes just say "dude, I'm on 4 bases - this is probably over"

    pretty fun to see how hard rain is outplaying DRG and still can't finish the game

    if Rain loses, I'm not even going to finish watching this series.

    Lategame PvZ is a total joke. Bring on fucking HotS.

    Disgusting.

    Nobody can say that DRG deserved that win. Not even @Anzekay could deny that Rain outplayed DRG tenfold.

    Fuck off PvZ.

    Oh well, guess I have a free evening now.

    Good to see the crying about Zerg has already begun :)

    'Zerg too stronk, always win PvZ!'

    Rain does three immortal timings and wins with DTs in game 4.

    heh

    Do we all remember what MC said in an interview about ZvP? Lategame sucks for Protoss, early and mid game sucks for Zerg.

  • DhalphirDhalphir don't you open that trapdoor you're a fool if you dareRegistered User regular
    Yeah but at least zerg CAN win in the early and mid. I can't remember the last lategame Protoss win in a PvZ, that didnt involve a lucky vortex

    And thats fucking stupid

  • AnzekayAnzekay Registered User regular
    Everytime someone says that X 'can't' win in some certain situation I just wanna call bullshit all over.

    Parting's interview after allkill against LG-IM.

    Apparently his "soul filled" immortal allins PvZ has never been stopped in practice, despite doing it 70 times against the zergs in his team. He says that "There are no Zergs who can defend against my Immortal rush in Wings of Liberty. If a Zerg player ever comes out who can stop my attack, he will be able to beat me."

    Also, if he wins GSL, he'll reveal his secret to unbeatable PvZ, so I guess pray for that, everyone! Sentry immortal all ins ALL DAY.

    I predict "the community" being perfectly fine with the idea that there's one build, one timing, that will win every PvZ at the 11 minute mark. I further predict all of the following arguments being used without irony, or self-awareness:
    "Hey, look - if you know the Parting sentry/immo allin is coming, you just have to stop the P from getting to that point!"
    "Have you tried drops or harrass?"
    "If you're not <arbitrary skill floor> you have no business commenting on whether this is good for the game or not"
    And finally, from Zergs:
    "I hate this fucking disgusting bullshit. This matchup is so boring and predictable. Bring on LotV!"

    Alright guys, I've got 3 different brands of white Belgian beers to try tonight, since those are typically the only beers I like.

    the new thing I'm nervous about is that this will be casted. So many of my games... they're really scrappy, especially tvp. It will not be pretty, one way or the other. I can't wait to hear meeks rip on me.
