People definitely were sad Polt lost but considering HerO didn't really abuse the blink imbalance and played his own style it wasn't too bad. HerO-Inno was certainly one of the most painful series I've ever watched. | ||

if i'm right that was during the peak of MMMM vs lingblingmuta strats which was just amazing to watch since it pushed both players to the limits of micro and a war of attrition. Despite all the balance whine it was just incredible to watch and it could've went both ways due to the nature of banelings and mines wrecking everything in the field. Dunno if i ever enjoyed watching starcraft more than that time On March 01 2018 22:04 Morbidius wrote: HerO was never heard of again once he destroyed fan favorites polt and jaedong. i guess he just existed to stomp hopes and dreams lol | ||

I think in LotV all matchups got better except TvZ which got much worse. | ||

I haven't seen much of tvz right now but it certainly isn't as exciting as hots was. (Yeah definitely the best matchup arguably could be tvt when marine-tank was still the mirror match build) I think the disruptor addition for protoss was good though. | ||

We lost all early game diversity (2 gate openers every game woohoo. Not to mention with 4.0 it's now fast expand every game as well!). And then instead of the potential colossus or zealot archon (which became less popular with the Time Warp nerf, yes), we get zealot archons immortal running into one another which isn't any better than colossus war. | ||
