He lost 3-2 to Sen
Tough draw.
Game 1: Frost, loses to mass speedling all-in that I think was completely unscouted until it hit his wall
Game 2: Habitation Station, GC returns the favor with a speedling + baneling all in and wins
Game 3: King Sejong Station, GC starts off gasless and goes into quick-ish lair + 1/1 roach upgrades, while Sen both takes a fast-ish third and makes a bunch of slow roaches and speedlings to attack. GC cancels the armor upgrade to get as many roaches as possible out and holds with an advantage of roach speed and +1, and chases Sen's army all the way back, kills all the drones at his 3rd; then he basically maxes on roaches, gets burrow/burrow movement/+2, attacks and wins.
Game 4: Overgrowth, goes muta vs muta, Sen takes a slightly faster 3rd and then also cancels Guitarcheese's 3rd with a ling runby, GC is a little down in both lings and mutas for the rest of the game as a result and it snowballs as Sen constantly attacks at the 3rd
Game 5: Merry Go Round, GC goes for a big speedling/bane attack again but Sen scouts it, holds it off with his own banelings + a spine, winds up with basically every advantage (faster 3rd, faster lair -> faster roach speed, faster upgrades, more roaches) and GC can't hold the attack
He talked about switching races after WCS cause he isn't enjoying playing Zerg a lot anymore, we'll see if he goes through with it
