The Disruptor is the only thing making PvP watchable.


Yeah the entire game, 20+ minutes should come down to a single skill shot every time. That is good game design.


It didn't come down to a single shot. There were fifty shots, and they all had a notable impact on the outcome of the game.

yeah but that doesn't make it entertaining to watch or fun to play

Yea what is frustrating about LotV ZvZ is that you can't scout your opponent before making very very important desicions about how you play

The fangirl screams when those Disruptor shots hit remind me of Brood War when crazy, exciting plays would happen.

I really cant believe I am saying this, but PvP is so entertaining now. Goodbye a-move Colossus.

Much different from bw/wol/hots zvz yes.
Then again you can kill pool first with 13/12 and hold 13/12 with hatch first so it's weird a bit.

one thing to mention is that it's not only luck if you get a good disruptor shot. You force your opponent to look away by pressuring and harassing constantly so the better player should still win most of the times.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

I think HotS was a bit better, WoL I didn't really watch a lot of ZvZ because I was still avoiding it, since it was my most hated MU to watch BY FAAR in BW

I have no opinion on how fun it is or isn't to play, but at least I can watch LotV PvP and say "the guy who won the series actually used quantifiable skills to win the series." Pretty important for a competition imo.

And in case it wasn't clear I found it very entertaining.

Idk that was probably one of the most fun PvP matches I've seen in years. HotS PvP was so boring imo...

Really? There are quantifiable skills (hmmm maybe not easy for a casual to se but someone like you should be able to see) to HotS PvP

Good to see PvP still splits everyone into love/hate. This expansion looks like it just reversed everyones opinions on it
