Strange vs Polt

2nd worst series in sc2

Better or worse than Tefel doing Tefel things against Mvp?

worse, my personal bottom 1 is Blaze vs Sleep.

Mvp vs Tefel was so wrong that it at least became amusing

Basically, Strange was about to win game 5, he was off by a few seconds, but then the games built-in stalemate detection ended the game. DH rules state that this means a re-game be played and they did, and Polt won and advanced. People are upset by this because Strange pretty much had the series won.

it looked like Strange won a baserace game, but then literally as he was a-clicking Polt's last forces and buildings, the in-game stalemate prevention kicked in and called the draw in game 5

Worst series ever was every Jaedong final from 2013

Can someone explain to me why ling/bane is a thing in LotV PvZ when it didn't work in HotS? Is it because Protoss players forgot how to use force fields and refuse to make colossi? Are lurkers so scary that anything good against ling/bane drops out of the meta?

it was becoming a thing in HotS again on the big maps and yes: no sentries, no collossi, adept heavy armies is what enables banes

source: I was playing ling/bane into ultras in HotS

Because of lack of sentries/collosi in armies and the heavy adept or zealots being used in current meta. Also decent vs phoenix openers since they can't deal well with large armies.

So was Solar. But IIRC, there were Protoss timings that would kinda rek ling/bane in HotS, no?

yes and eventually everyone just switched to ling/muta into infestors

e: to elaborated, I think Protoss can deal with ling/bane in LotV, but the threat of other styles and timings doesn't really let you to freely go chargelot/archon. Also bane drops really help to set up the early game tempo.
