The thing that makes a matchup good for me is when you get consistant tiers of players. Like in HoTS players like Rain, Zest, sOs etc would look unbeatable vs most other protoss. When disruptor-blink meta became massive in Korea almost all top PvPers were at like 50%
Agree 100% with this. It's why I dislike current TvT so much, because people like Inno can lose to people like aLive. TY and Inno are two of the best Terrans, but their TvT is pretty much equal to that of Gumiho, aLive, and Ryung.

aLive's pretty good. Don't knock the invisible man. Now INno losing to KeeN...

Wait he lost to Keen? That's just shameful.

Gumi, aLive, and Ryung are legit great at TvT to be fair, it's just the other matchups they struggle with.
But yeah seeing Inno/TY/Maru lose to the GomTvT terrans is annoying because you know those probably will get 0-3'd by a protoss afterwoods

This game of ping pong is pretty amusing.

So, with all of the historically great ones gone/worse, it's no surprise to see things are close.

How to resolve PvP: give both players 10 distruptors and nothing else. Watch in amusement.

Worth noting, whenever I'm watching a PvP and the players go disruptor it makes me want to stop watching. At that point I have no clue who's gonna win, and if there's one thing thats frustrating to watch it's garanteed coinflip.

Neeb is really good at bowling.

from 7 to 4 disruptor deficit to 5 to 2 disruptor lead

Showtime should've rebuilt those phoenixes. Neeb is much better than him at pure stalker/disruptor PvP. He'd have a better chance in the Korean meta where disruptors are moving out of favour again.
