ThorZain vs Revival

This is the third tournament in a row where Thorzain has lost due to going mass ghosts. Massing ghosts simply isn't beefy enough and doesn't cut it in the end. It's a cool strat to watch and works in theory, but in practice you have some much shit going at you, banelings, lings, fungals etc that mass snipe doesn't cut it. Not to mention you can't kite while sniping.

It should also be noted that Thorzain has amongst the lowest APM of all pros, which hardly helps going mass spellcasters.



it wasn't the ghosts that were the problem. zerg opened with the greed-meter pegged to ten, and terran applied precisely zero pressure. find the moment the terran first initiates any action, and then look at the purple on the mini-map. thorzain is a great "full-map" player but that's not enough to play his way out of basically the six minute build-order loss that was the opening of this game.



edit: "pegged to ten" is inaccurate. Z was safe"with respect to drones vs. units, but the expansions came fast and furious.



I thing both Paladia and Misant are right! Theme, zerg re-max are to much easyer compared to Terran, so, changing units are not that good!
