When the scene is this competitive, game is so volatile, nothing weird at all. For top 100 players, everybody can beat everybody, they all have the potential to be code S champion.

I don't mind 3 base timings because zergs are never prepared the same way, so it plays out differently usually. I really do like PvT though

After the action packed epic ZvZ MLG final?
ZvZ hasn't been too bad since the queen patch TBH and a lot of them are really entertaining.

I'm not surprised that Bogus pulled through in the end. With the exception of Flash, Kespa players have almost all looked strongest in their respective mirrors.
As for matchups, TvT is clearly the most exciting and dynamic imo.
TvT TvZ is close second, then a huge distance back to
TvP ZvZ PvP PvZ

Can you hear the screams from code A? It almost seems like there are better players than in Code S atm lol

I used to hate ZvZ since it was either earlypool into win, get a lucky baneling or max on just roaches and win.
All of this can still happen, but so does a host of other things now. The variety and cool play we're seeing from high level ZvZ players (Leenock vs Life for example) has gotten me on board.
I'm still yet to see a series of PvP that's been good. Some one-offs in team leagues have been ok. Too much collosus pew pew nowdays though, but immortal WP harass is something I'm excited for.
And PvZ is fine. As long as it doesn't involve soulless wonwonwon and gglords they can be quite interesting. Pheonix harass, void ray all-ins, roach busts, roach-hydra drops, nydus worms, infestor hit squads, sentry drop harass, etc. Mid-game PvZ can be really interesting. Honestly it's one all-in Protoss have and the infestor-BL combo lategame that basically makes the matchup amazingly linear which ruins our enjoyment of it.
It's not PvZ. It's that two builds/compositions are so much better than everything else, there's little sense not doing them.

Wish Keen went through, he showed some good plays today.
Hope he can pick himself back up

ZvZ hasn't been too bad since the queen patch TBH and a lot of them are really entertaining. I think I just don't find zerg at all exciting now. Even the MLG finals I was like "oh, mutas. Oh an infestor got near them. Bye 10 mutas. Oh, now roaches vs roaches and beachballs and fungal and everything's green" then "Huh, life's actually pulling back from 0-3. Wow he might win it. Well that was kinda cool"

It's not PvZ. It's that two builds/compositions are so much better than everything else, there's little sense not doing them. Well that's the problem right? There aren't many variations.
Protoss does wonwonwon. Zerg either holds and wins, dies and loses, or loses third but lives If the latter, protoss does 3 base timing. Zerg either holds and wins, dies and loses, or sustains damage but lives If the latter, we get a 30 minute turtlefest where the ending is a foregone conclusion
That adequately describes 80% of PvZ. Which is bad. And the alternatives aren't much better. Some form of zerg cheese, the protoss skipping the wonwonwon to do a 3 base timing only, or the protoss deciding he likes losing and playing for the lategame, thus ensuring the 30 min turtlefest into inevitable zerg victory.

Keen really breaking my heart here again. I don´t know if I can keep up this relationship, if he keeps hurting me. But then again, he can be so sweet at times.
