that is because people who understand the game know how much better symbol is. Just didnt workout today.
I dunno man, I've always felt that Symbol was riding on the back of patchzerg and roach nydus play.
I mean I think he's solid as fuck, but I've never seen that spark in him that is so clear to me when I watch someone like Soulkey play.
Maru played like a beast today though, no doubt about it.
If you watched him during his allkill run, right before he was reverse swept by seed he looked better then any player in the world by a massive margin. Perfect macro, didn't just broodlord infestor, excellent creep spread, and always seemed to make the right choices.
Not to mention he was starting to break out just BEFORE the patch in WoL

It's not only that they have no reason to, it's actually counter productive.
Bio units don't share upgrades with BCs and Thors, Zerg and Protoss ground forces DO share upgrades with Tier 3 units.
Thors and BCs are incredibly immobile, Bio's greatest strength is its mobility.
The reasons go on and on.
Terran is designed that way. If you're playing Bio, you're playing Bio supported by Starport support units like Medivacs, Vikings and occasionally Ravens.
If you're playing Mech you're playing Mech.
They are not meant to be mixed together.
Well it would be nice to actually see some more mech then is what I mean or having some reason to go BCs more often than the never happening now. Seeing BCs as a transition out of Bio would be nice. It isnt like it wouldnt be possible if it were a useful unit in this matchup.
I never really understood why you have a poll for a game that isnt being played, can you explain for me please?
spoiler-free
I always hope that one day everyone votes yes on one of those games so someone gets hyped and spends they entire series thinking "Wow I can't wait for game 5, all yes votes except for that one guy" only to be crushingly disappointed as a player goes through after winning game 4 with like an in base proxy gateway.

So much this.
Symbol never gives off that "perfect" vibe that a lot of other Zergs do. And the number of fanboys on TL forums overhyping him last year, despite being THE winfestor zerg, hurt my heart beyond recovery.

I think it is unfair to call symbol patchzerg at this point. Jut look at his results in Hots. He is most consistant player there is, but he always falls short.
Oh I don't think that he really is. I've been watching Symbol since he first emerged in the SC2 scene, and like I said he's solid and consistent, but I feel like his play is fairly one dimensional.
