not really when it's something as speedy and hard than muta/ling/bane.
Even at the highest level you can be badly outmicroed (DRG vs Roro ie)
Zest fanboy.

Far less random than basing it on strategy in a game with fog of war.

Follow up to my earlier post - IF

Grubby > Dream
Grubby > Golden
TLO > MVP
Stephano > Dream

Then grubby can advance 2-3 with a head to head on dream, golden, and TLO. I think TLO is out though

edit: my phone doesn't like greater than signs I guess.

Well HotS Z v Z is ugly so far...


i like it o.O, the game comes down to execution and mechanics


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.


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.


well ling runbys and upgrades are just as important and it's just much faster imo, also interesting who invests more in banes or a ground upgrade etc.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

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.


1) map differential (ie 8-5 is +3)
2) most maps won
3) h2h

Just like Kespa players, fOrGG etc, progamers don't count up "streaming sessions" as training.

The more skills needed to succeed, the better players are able to differentiate from each other. With a narrowing scope, there will be more players on the same level.

Playing roach-hydra-infestor != strategy only. Or?
