There is a huge difference between proleague and star league matches. They play at a total different level.
Leta deserved to win in MSL but made some little mistakes which cost him a/some games.
And moletraps last report about the game was very bad. Luxury had to go for more eco instead of pumping muta. He had already succesfully contained Leta=secured 3rd gas.
I guess Leta learned his lesson against Luxury: build Bunkers and Turrets and prepare for super aggression! Maybe the new TvZ standard will be to put up 6 bunkers, lol. Too bad he learned the lesson after he lost the series. Luxury could never do a 2-hatch build again and it wouldn't matter because he still beat Leta with it in the MSL.
is it just me or does it seem like neither player was really playing up to their usual game? a lot of poor decisions were made by both. perhaps that's why most commentator-greats agree that Luxury and Leta don't deserve to be called "S class" players? i agree that S class players are the ones that play their best every game, and clearly that did not happen in this game.
man i was really hoping to see the zerg win out in that one. i think it's too easy for the terran to win in t v z just because all you really need are mm and science vessels. idk im biased against terran
Hahaha, go try TvZ dude. It's so ridiculously difficult. Building marines/medics from 6+ rax and then having to micro them along with everything else requires so much APM and multi-tasking. IMO Zerg is difficult for timing and managing the economy but lurkers are so damn easy to use. Just compare lurker usage to MnM usage. EASY.
its hard for z too because if t pulls it off right then you must time everything really well and micro really well. Also its hard microing mutas while macroing etc etc.
Both races are hard to use. TvZ/ZvT hinges on micro and a single micro-mistake can cost you the game. Why is it so hard to just admit that it's hard for both.
honestly at lower levels t tends to beat z, not a wide margin, like 55-45, its about the same as p over t at low levels... don't forget map has a lot to do with that as well
from my mind it seems that you pay more dearly as zerg when you make mistakes then w terran.

Luxury is the only player that I've seen going mass mutalisks more than once. He's pretty good with it in fact.

I don't have any Links, but JD has done this quite a few times in the past with even more Mutas, it's pretty cool.
stevethemacguy 3 years ago
Jaedong/July has done it tons of times.
RealmEternal 3 years ago
Not pure mutas more than once. Jaedong always adds in some Zerglings and July just cripples his opponent with mutas.
neobowman 3 years ago
No, it was all muta. Anyway this was a horrible game. leta lost 6 tanks for no reason. wtf

Lux onced cancelled his lair, losing him the game.
Leta's still relatively new.
They're not S class.
neobowman 3 years ago
leta not s class?... where have you been?
helgi111 3 years ago
Lol!
Saying that Leta is S-class is like saying Bisu is Bonjwa. They're both very close, but definitely not there yet.

Watching Leta vs Luxury's Bo5.
He's cooling off recently, definitely not S-class in my mind.
neobowman 3 years ago
lol at the assumption of that medic trying to sell drugs to the drones... :D
maybe they needed more than just the usual stim packs from their marine friends.

And this, ladies and gentleman, is why we don't see mutalisks past the early midgame.

*sigh* such subpar play from [loser], who's one of my favourite players...so sad to see.
On a side note: I don't think I've ever seen 6 bunkers in such a short pro game

Also hard to defend against a Zerg player with good muta-micro. However at a newbie level a Zerg can just go 2 hatch lurkers and win off of that.
kreternal 3 years ago
youre right, ofcourse.
but you need insane precision with zerg.. its just not lurkers aswell.. its lurker/ling/ultra/defiler/scourge at the same time.
well that makes starcraft! :D

yea i know, it's just that everytime i play TvZ the T always wins whatever side im on

Perhaps your Zerg play is sub-par as well as those of all the opponents you play?
