So, WCS 2016 gives us a one sided final between a zerg who never won any major/premier tournament against a RO32 WCS2015 protoss.

Oh please. Drogo was clearly the better player imo. Several times bly would send his entire army to deal with small harass and then drove would snipe a base with his army. He also lost a few hatches to single zealots. Don't act like balance won this for drogo.

And before you say it, I play Zerg so I'm not fucking biased.


like i said, where is no skill gap, balance wins it. game is awful right now and that is it. i'm not saying drogo is bad or he didn't play it well, i'm just saying that imbalance made it possible for him to win tournamen he wouldn't win otherwise. and ban of skilled player, of course. but i don't mind less koreans in tournaments, it is good for foreign scene



So, suddently, P>Z, interesting...

Why are they banned?

I thought it's just there is no Korean qualifiers. If their team is willing to pay for the traveling they can still play from the open right?


There's WCS Korea and WCS Circuit. You can't go between the two

hard counter design and asymmetrical opening/early game decrease the skill gap tremendously.

Exactly my point about balance, WP harass, warps in 20 zealots, thats not a harass you can handle by branching off 5 roaches, Bly had to send at least half his army, which would have made it impossible for him to defend the army sniping the hatch anyway. In that situation Bly made the better choice, move whole army to get minimal losses from zealots since if you would take half there would be nothing they could do anyway.

The games were low econ, they weren't maxed out, Bly didn't have a huge army. WP harass is really really hard to deal with.


Warping in 20 zealots doesn't sound like low econ game.

I am Zerg fanboy many people know me, but I think we have to honestly say that Bly played bad games today. I think this games today are no reason for balance discussion in either way

It's a new game, you can't look at past results.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I disagree I thought Bly played great games, besides the game he threw by running his maxed out hydra army into the meatgrinder. (And oh yeah I missed the first two games don't know how they looked)

You realize 20 zealots is 40 supply right? At no point did Drogo warp in 20 zealots. Bly should have made static-D to mess with the zealot ai and kill or even damage the WP while protecting his expansions with his main army. He couldn't and that's why he repeatedly lost the econ war.

Yeah right, because unexpected winners are truly boring.
