no matter what great run man !

I hope they give it a couple of months before nerfing things. If anything, I'd prefer more tools of attack given to races struggling with a matchup.

Ret played great at this tournament, it's a huge success imo! Nothing wrong with losing tho yongwha here, he still showed really great games this tournament . Go Ret, thanks for the great games!!!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

As a zerg player, it was difficult to watch this series. It felt like those were my corrupters being absolutely useless...

I love how all people here talk about foreigners in a third person perspective when they shit on players. Seems like "foreigners" are retarded after all x)

It'll be like this for the next ~2 years, at which point Blizz will massively buff zerg in every regard.

i really can't stand rachel as a host at all tbh. i don't know why they couldn't just get Soe, this tournament is in germany ffs.


I think she is doing a great job hosting, and she looks good. I'm totally fine with it

i disagree on both, but everybody's entitled to their opinion i guess. for some reason she really ticks me off, and it's not only the constant barrage of stupid questions...

Yeah if it still seems imbalanced in a month or two then instead of nerfing voids they should just buff something zerg maybe hydras a little? Just a little more hp/damage would make a huge difference.

Uh it'll be like this forever, terrans QQ'd galore, protosses QQ'd galore, zergs QQ'd galore. It's never going to stop even if the game is 100% balanced.
When I think of something else, something will go here

people need to stop caring about the casters and hosts and start focusing on the actual game play it self, its so shameful to see theres more comments in LR threads about casters/hosts then there is about the actual game.

even if they only buff their anti air attack, I also think buffing is better than nerfing

We must learn from our mistakes and try to not repeat them. We must all stop whining about everything balance related.

You played great Ret, however it's obvious that T and P are far too strong right now and will be fixed in the near future.

Good luck for the year ahead!

Well they are, voidray's counter them after all, that's what the zerg currently struggle with, there is nothing air to match voidray's, so something ground has to trade efficient, we have Violet playing so who knows perhaps he found a different tactic.

A little won't do much, because they get massacred by storm/colossus so hard.

yonghwa played that match amazingly well, but is a protoss of yonghwa's caliber actually beatable by Zerg? I don't see it happening, yonghwa engaged without the voidray buff in one of those engagements and still absolutely roflstomped ret's army.
