FYI the tournament was massively delayed by Hon matches lasting for ages, the first match of hon went on for over an hour. wasnt it 30 min delay when they started pre match talk ? wouldnt call that massive, but yeah there was a delay.. though, nasl doing an pretty nice job so far, i hope more ppl will show up, but thats not their fault - they have to start early to make the matches bo5. | ||

Control in those fights is absolutely insanely taxing. It's not like ZvZ where whoever has the better Roach concave wins, you are: - forcefielding off Zealots around Archons - using Archons to break forcefields - Blinking Stalkers out of melee range - Blinking Stalkers to pick off Colossus - focus firing Immortals on Stalkers/Colossus - spreading out units so opposing Colossus don't do too much AoE - focus firing Colossus on clumped units - warping in units, which unlike the other races directly takes you away from the battle as you can't do it just from hotkeys, you need to move the camera and click a bunch - chronoboosting gateways/robo/upgrades It's still incredibly monotonous and even though there is a lot of subtle positioning, none of it actually has any of the 'wow' factor as a spectator that good marine splitting, blink micro or a well executed 3-way flank from a Z. My current PvP is literally based around surviving to the lategame and getting double robo collosus with attack upgrades, they wipe out everything on the ground it's just silly. As a Protoss player I really wanted this unit taken out of HoTS and replaced with a more mechanically interesting and strategic unit, but apparently that's not happening this pvp sucks thing is really stuck in peoples heads... sad in my opinion its far more interesting than zvz and tvt if it involves bio pvp these days offers a lot of different openings and ways to play the midgame (all of them involve blink stalkers but well you have standards in every race) the lategame army is often the same (and its rarly mass colossus like in the last game (in tournament play at least) but thats also pretty much the same with every other mu whats more interesting is ofc opinionbased but saying pvp sucks and is always colossus-wars is just wrong | ||

I think in the last few months PvP has been SOOOO much better than ZvZ, and TvT often hinges too much on a 1 second mistake(not having your tanks sieged up against bio) that turns even the most dominating game into an instant loss. | ||
