But what about the potato salad?
In other words, TitaN is one game away from my 2/2 liquibet.

Zerg was never the least mechanical one. If you're talking the least demanding of APM, it was always protoss.

Yeah what about it ???

I think a lot of things will change when players hit offline qualifiers, cause it is hard to believe that no player is getting 'advices' when this is live from someone sitting next to them.

did Titan just blink to avoid a mine shot ? He sent 2 stalkers towards the marauders and blink away while the mine triggered on its own units. Mind-blown.
grubby does that regularly

We're talking about Ret. The player who just got knocked out his group. The group to which this LR is dedicated.
There's just interesting analogy between mechanical difficulty and top foreigners. When Terran was all about rushes and two base timings, there were plenty of foreign Terrans. As macro play evolved and the skill cap increased, foreign Terrans started disappearing.
When Zerg was about macro games and harass (Speedling, Baneling, and Muta TvZ, FE), there weren't many good foreign Zergs. On the other hand, when Zerg's defense became so strong they could easily turtle to BL Infestor while deflecting any attack except an all in without Queens and Sunkens, Foreign Zergs exploded.
Pretty interesting.
