PvP and ZvT were the matchups that really delivered in this tournament.
Dimaga and MorroW delivered some stellar ZvP too, but unfortunately toss is now reverting to the MinChul solution for late game PvZ "weakness": Don't play long games.
It's kinda sad to be honest. I actually think it's above all else due to the prevalence of 3 base strategies in the last few months that these 2 base all ins seem to succeed so much now, so I think this rampant 2-basing will go away with time. It'll ofc be there, but it won't be the go-to strategy in the next big event for toss.

Yeah Zerglings get so much more surface area to cover, when zealots start to split up. It helped a lot!

UGH -- I miss the TvZ's of old!
It is only boring because the Zergs are just rolling over to the 2-base push. They can defend it, but they keep making poor decisions and choosing poor builds. People keep saying the 2-base push is an all-in and it really isn't... but Zergs just keep dying at that stage, lol.
