i wonder how the MU would play out if widow mines activated faster? the overseer speed buff, while great, made widow mines really pathetic against mutas. with the reduced blast damage i think faster mines might keep the matchup interesting. not sure exactly how it would change mine dragging/mine spread or if it would buff zerg on the ground... zerg needs mutas but i definitely see how the huge balls can be a problem for any terran who falls even slightly behind

tvz was perfectly balanced until they nerfed widowmines for god knows what reason

winrates favored terran and bio mine camping a choke point outside a 4th base was ridiculous. pre-nerf mines are not the way to fix the matchup again, that would be a terrible regression. 3/3 alone means bio mine is still fine against ling bling on the ground, but mutas are a bigger problem now as terrans have observed.

Sources on this?
Its quite easy to write "win rates favoured Terran" but I remember the win rates as being 50%, I am not sure though. Would be nice if you provided statistics.

the source is my memory, i don't care to prove it or argue it because the actual point i was making was in the words i typed, not the statistic as i remember it... going back to bio mine in choke points pre-nerf would be enough to make me switch to protoss lol

Well that is a great source.. Ehhh.

He's kind of right though, when a few mines were set up in a choke point it became insanely hard to break out as zerg

I am not arguing about that at all. Im just saying that claiming that "win rates favoured Terran" and then saying "I dont have sources, just my head" is a bit weird way to argue.

what do you want me to do? i answered honestly. i don't have a source. i might be wrong. should i delete all my posts because i made a comment based on memory? i don't keep liquipedia tabs open 24/7 in case i get into a discussion on the forums...

don't throw winrates out of the window so... I think everyone would agree that the push on the 4th on akilon was ridiculous ie.

i made a comment based on memory. i thought i was right. maybe i'm wrong, if i'm wrong then feel free to post your own source. beyond that i don't really care... this argument is kinda pointless, it's not even about starcraft, it's just people trying to make me admit i'm wrong o_O which is kinda weird

GSL on twitch has been so disappointing so far, I mean, I paid 20 bucks and I only get "high" quality, VOD section sucks and you are affected by slomo chat mode as subscriber...

That's the worst I've ever seen someone play and still top their group

the other group today was just as bad if not worse play. I guess Seed vs Rogue had an exciting game but the games overall were pretty sloppy and I feel like the 2 that advanced from there will probably be the weakest players in code s

I haven't seen the first two games. How the hell did Hydra win? Everytime i see this kid play, i think that it's some low master guy. His play in this ZvZ definitaly looked like that.

? they are in the losers match so that will be impossible

Hoping for both of 'em can mean "Hoping at least one will go through" which is still not sure.
