I didn't see them get added. You normally add them right after taking your 3rd.

Why did DnS push into that siege so far from his 3rd? If HeroMarine had anything in terms of upgrades, DnS would be dead.

I didn't watch at that time. Was he forced to delay his 3rd?

If those times are correct and he was not delayed by aggression (his own or the Terran), then it's a bit late.


But going collosi, you might have to delay them a bit. Because getting that first collosus is important in staying alive.

I feel like DnS could have sneaked out storm at some point. No, it wouldn't have solved the liberator issue, but it would have helped more than the Colossus if it pushed back the bio while the stalkers were sniping them down.

Liberators didn't make that much, Heromarine just 3-base all-ined to death after getting a big opening advantage, and yep in every MU 40+ more army supply can compensate a 2-upgrade lead. ( 2-2 vs 2-0 )

HeroMarine didn't have a 40-army supply lead when their first major fight happened outside of the 3rd. He had liberators.

It would be pretty funny if ShoWTime switched to Terran and uThermal switched to Protoss.

HeroMarine gets first in a group with 3 Protoss. Helps to avoid ShowTime, but not too shabby at all.

Is the map pool to blame?

In TvZ Backwater is very good for terran, Eastwatch is good particularly as the game goes late, but the others don't seem too bad one way or another (Abio is arguably good for a terran with the right mindset).

From a zerg perspective I guess it is a downgrade from having maps like Odyssey around...

If the map pools is Terran favored, what will the TvZ win rates be in a neutral map pool? Low 40s?

Nah, terrans just cried enough for their race to be broken on the current map pool :D


Is the map pool to blame?

In TvZ Backwater is very good for terran, Eastwatch is good particularly as the game goes late, but the others don't seem too bad one way or another (Abio is arguably good for a terran with the right mindset).

From a zerg perspective I guess it is a downgrade from having maps like Odyssey around...

If the map pools is Terran favored, what will the TvZ win rates be in a neutral map pool? Low 40s?

Depends on which Terrans get to play.

Korea uses different map pools, so in this case, non Koreans.

Fun fact Nerchio +53 map differential against Soul is only his 4th highest against polish pro players. He is +236 against Guru-Mana-Elazer-Soul.

Nerchio better end this soon before mass Raven + Ghosts appear. Though I dunno if soul is good enough to micro these.

soul might get there, but I don't think he has the economy to rebuild on that for long.

Playing the attrition game is probably Nerchio's highest win percentage play, but he could have probably won 10 minutes ago and now this game will likely go 40+.

Nerchio is going to win after throwing a lead a 1000 times and then come here to complain that he couldn't win because terran OP and we don't know anything saying when we said he could win at any point,

nah man youre right the top foreign players of all time should be listening to forum posts about how to play. that's why they aren't in GSL. all the koreans listen to forum posts, and that's why they're good

Anyone else notice the game sounds are coming either from far right or far left, nothing from the middle. Pretty weird setup.

Yeah, but he's slightly vulnerable to Terrans. So if he meets uThermal or MajOr, these will probably his hardest matches this WCS.

I think the ro8 bracket for EU challenger is already determined (due to the wcs rules): Serral vs Stephano && Heromarine vs Nerchio && Uthermal vs Showtime && Elazer vs PtitDrogo

pretty insane ro8

i mean clearly serral is a heavy favorite but if there are players to upset him, these are all good choices.

for semis i gotta predict serral, heromarine, .. and last two are really tough but I guess I go with showtime and ptitdrogo

Yeah, HeRoMaRinE has been performing well against Nerchio recently, so i think (and hope) he will qualify.

Serral is for sure the heavy favorite in his ro8 mathc (and in his semifinals too).

I think Elazer against PtitDrogo will be close, favoring Drogo because of the Ping from Korea for Elazer.

SchoWTimE vs uThermal will be a close one too, i think. But because of the current state of TvP ShoWTimE should be the favorite. Still i hope uThermal can beat him.

heromarine in general is amazing and underrated. he doesn't seem to compete as much as other people of his caliber.. not sure why. but he often puts up some of the best performances of any foreigner.

Serral has the Austin ro32 spot now in his pocket so the rest is just a bonus. But I don't think he is going to struggle too much today.

Easy to cheer for Serral, I want a foreigner that can compete with the best (aka koreans) and he is the only one that really shows some promise in that regard, as he has improved immensely in comparison to say 2 years ago. I wish he was stronger against Terrran though, I think HeroMarine could actually take him out for that reason. Other guy I'll be cheering for is uThermal, which is also the only foreigner I'd see favored against Serral (sadly ^^).

(Yes yes, Neeb, Special and Scarlett have shown good results too, but those have been pretty long in the state that they can do beat koreans sometimes. Also they're not EU.)

I mean uThermal himself said during the final day of NW5 that he'd still consider Serral the favorite against himself. The edge is probably one of smaller ones for Serral though when it comes to playing against foreigners, especially if uthermal doesn't go full tilt.

no way a foreign terran can beat Serral. he smashed Special at the last WCS who's better than thermal or Heromarine.

you may be right in a bo5. i just saw him losing against uThermal in some online tournament recently, but I think that was only bo1.

In bo1 anyone can beat anyone. People think Serral has poor ZvT because he lost to Maru but forget that not every terran can play like Maru.

Other guy I'll be cheering for is uThermal, which is also the only foreigner I'd see favored against Serral (sadly ^^).

(Yes yes, Neeb, Special and Scarlett have shown good results too, but those have been pretty long in the state that they can do beat koreans sometimes. Also they're not EU.)

no way a foreign terran can beat Serral. he smashed Special at the last WCS who's better than thermal or Heromarine.

you may be right in a bo5. i just saw him losing against uThermal in some online tournament recently, but I think that was only bo1.

Yeah, uThermal held a big roach ravager all-in long enough on a map he got to choose in the PeopleImages thing.

To be fair they just keep their "after 3 maps, we take a break" plan going... Even if it is very annoying now.

Did the casters always spend this much time hyping up Serral? It gets pretty tedious after awhile hearing the same stuff over and over. Saying he's the best foreigner ten more times doesn't change the fact that he's.....still the best foreigner.

I hope Serral doesn't turn into 2017 Neeb, the constant hype got pretty cringeworthy by the time Valencia rolled around.

He won't. Protoss wasn't super OP when Neeb was dominating, so even if Serral wins 3/4, it won't be nearly as impressive.

I do hope we get a Neeb-Serral final, I would not give up on Neeb too quickly on stage in a lan he may be able to retake his throne.

Neeb beating Rogue is more impressive than anything Serral has ever done, especially since all of Serral's victories of note have come in ZvP which has been somewhere between borderline unlosable and very Zerg favored the entire time.

I wouldn't put ZvP in the unwinnable category the last five months it's only really been around 55% as the best Protosses have won against the best Zergs. Classic has struggled, but his PvZ isn't that great.

However, I do agree that Neeb beating Rogue is more impressive than Serral beating Classic.

PvZ was at ~43% before the dropper lord nerf. According to Aligulac's balance report, there have been only 6 periods in the history of the game with a matchup in a worse state. Hell, I think even notorious anti-Protoss balance whining Zergs were relatively silent and that should tell you something.
