How did stats end up so far behind in the midgame?


Let some lings in, then his chargelot aggression didn't do anything. Protoss is pretty much screwed if he doesn't do any sort of damage in the early/midgame.

Why does it look so much more micro intensive for the P side? That prism value was huge and still wasn't enough.

Stats lost this game before Serral built first swarm host, that's the confusing part.

Stats looked quite ahead after the first oracles, but he went full foreigner and didnt block his nat :D

You know how serral could've really shown stats who's boss? 30 mutas ex nihilo in stats main 30 seconds into the game.

I guess microing against chargelot/archon and oracles isn't impressive.

Because he was losing the game at that point. It is always harder for the losing side.

The match-up has always been more micro intensive for protoss, but the zerg input comes in different places (engagement set-up, macro management, multi-tasking).

Stats can't get rolled or Serral will fall off hard next year feeling unstoppable

Maybe Avilo was right all along, SH (and free units in general) is a design nonsense, either viable and OP or not viable.

At that point in the game it didn't really matter... It just looked good, but Stats was dead once he decided to let Serrals lings in, stop his harass, and do a stupid chargelot attack

The Adept in wall at the beginning of the game is still upsetting - the walls/filling it is too unreliable and only makes games worse - esp. on lower levels, but the fact that it happens even in Blizzcon finals shows that it's really hard to prevent

It's easily one of the most frustrating things. The wall opening looks sealed but isn't. It's even worse that the cybernetics core is ever so slightly smaller than the gateway, which can make this even worse.

The first oracle did well but he used that oracle and the second one to defend against lings, ultimately the proxy stargate not really paying off, and then serral saw everything with the lings for a long time. Because of the wall fuckups and many lings stats couldn't have taken a 3rd early either

As someone who doesnt watch a ton of LoTV it feels too punishing. Stats had no hope of ever out playing that. It was a bad attack but I think we want some elasticity to bounce back in these games and get a few body shots in. I think it's bad design.

SH just like BL used to be, are so good at suffocating the opponent when you are ahead

Serral's ZvP is untouchable. I still hope Stats can at least take a game.
