So do TvT, TvZ, TvP, PvP, and PvZ, except they don't suck for the viewer.

Lol, Grubby can still qualify if he win 2x 2-0 and Dream lose 2-0 to Stephano (and Mvp beat TLO).

It'll just be like BW again lol...

but I don't believe that ZvZ is going to be only mutaling anyway in HotS, and I think it's silly for people to assume that the builds we see before HotS is even out are going to be the only builds (or even the staples) that we'll see throughout HotS.


But BW Muta wars had Scourges what made them more interesting and similar to ling-bling wars in the sky...


The Muta micro is a lot different as well.

It has to be the chair or something? Qxc looks really tiny in it as well, is he also a short guy?


Looks like the middle chair is backed up a bit. Probably in order to make it easier for the guys on the sides to look at each other.

That's true; so ling bling muta (with ground scourge)?

The game's still going to evolve; people need to relax.

Exactly, you can now clearly see who is better in zvz and it's really fun to watch and play with explosions and lots of flying units imo Why do people hate it? I think a mirror should be about mechanics and execution just like that. And looks way better than roach vs roach.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Well actually you need 5 fungles, and that's the main problem of ZvZ ^^

But with lingfestor this could be possible to get enough infestors early on.

Roach vs Roach was not about who had more, but who had the better engagement, what were your investments in upgrades, when you try to transition to Hive, runbying your opponent... That was more interesting than who is able to get the more gas obviously.

Basing a match-up on mechanics and execution = random at the highest level. Too many people are too close to each other on those parameters.

Well, you only need one 'good' one since the rest can be chained. But getting that one is really really hard due to projectile and fast mutas.

Don't think so because TLO can have 4 wins at best, whereas Dream already has 5 maps won...

True, but the problem is that the player that techs to Infestors is probably going to be overwhelmed by his opponent's mutas.

What is the first tiebreaker between two players? Should be who won the game between the two of them? If so, grubby is the only one who can pass Dream for a top 3 placement right now.

If it is maps won, ignore my post.
