EPTBut having 2 (or 3.5 because of gold) bases of minerals and 1 of gas for the price of a single nexus sounds more worth it than taking the gold as your natural

Less so for ladder. | ||

Fair enough. Although I doubt its so far away to not make it more worth it economically. Maybe not for Terran and Protoss due to how quickly they build workers but I imagine for a Zerg it could be better than just taking the gold | ||

Plus BQT was way better than Lambo during the series. Of course. Nevertheless the gameplay seen in that game didn't inspire much confidence. Hopefully we'll see more of Dasan and get a better idea. | ||

But it's already hard to hit anything with the balls as fast as they are. They're already mostly out of the meta for all Protoss MUs in Korea because Koreans just dodge. | ||

I'm not saying its imbalanced or anything, I just don't really find it that cool of an interaction between other units. They're in the "amazing fungals" tier for me, where good ones are really good sure but most of them aren't nearly as amazing as they're made out to be | ||

Also Galactic Process has really impressed me this game. I thought of it only as an average finalist, but this game has really shown how well placed the ramps, rocks and LOS blockers are. | ||

They outspeed most units, giving the player who is using the discuptor a better chance at causing damage than the player who is defending from it. And I was using "amazing fungals" as an easily understood example of the situation, not comparing WoL fungaling to disruptors. For example that last disruptor shot that killed 6 disruptors was actually a really good shot, but randomly shaving off a few stalkers or zealots that you're already faster than isn't interesting. You're already faster than those units EDIT: I'm curious how this map will turn out without terran | ||

There's a reason why they are relatively niche in the Korean meta. | ||

Also the current game so far feels like a game on Ulrena except with the players getting caught out by the air pathing. | ||

Looks like its one of the most skill intensive things in the game. | ||
