So, I haven't watched any games since PtiDrogo won DH, how is the quality of games those days? Is the new WCS any good? What about Korea?

Would be super-glad if someone is willing to do a super quick state-of-the-game

Well quality skilll wise is pretty low compared to KR (especially atm. I feel with a lot of players slumping/missing), but at least d1 has been entertaining as F.
Also NA has actually good player in Neeb.
Also IMO (and I guess many disagree) Snute is actually good, and maybe only one who is.

Not too suprising indeed, and how would you rate the 'competitive viewing experience' aka quality of games in Lotv compaired to Hots?

generally I have viewed snute as the only player right now who can consistently beat top level Koreans, but conversely he gets rekt by foreigners

PvT improved, ZvP is around the same, TvZ is a lot worse. ZvZ is better in mid-game, but early game is made of BO wins. PvP is worse a bit, TvT about the same.

More action and diverstiy build wise makes for more mistakes (even in kr and especially for foreigners) but way more entertaining and close games, series, etc. And balance is pretty good and interesting (zvz watchable, pvp nice, which previously were pretty cancer IMO).

Also top top kor now really impresses even more.,

It seems a lot better to me, protoss is a lot more fun and there is no more swarm host so that help, and tvz is starting to be awesome again after a bit at the start when it was not realy interesting.

Thanks for all the answers, the trouble I had watching early Lotv was the prevalence of harassment over actual fights, esp liberators and adepts, is that still an issue?

Adept harass without a prism pretty much dissapeared after the very first minutes, liberators also get dealt with better.
Like less than in the beginning, but more than in hots (especially for P and Z with warp prism adepts and bane/ling drops).
I feel the balance is good, games dont get decided without a fight.
