Did you see uThermal vs Reynor?

no

He massed Cyclones and Banshees 3 games in a row and won all 3. It looked strong and almost abusive.

According to some zerg pro serral is stronger than Life ever was lul.

Modern LotV is just more impressive to watch than HotS ever was. It has more focus on flashy things like micro or multitasking.

Life's timing and tactical ability are still unmatched as far as zergs go.

except TvZ imo. Dream vs Life and Dark are still the most impressive games I've ever seen.

question: isn't it worthwhile putting down 2 spores in each base vs taejas banshees?

Rofl. You guys are basically comparing HSC at 8k being played on a new patch to six months of unprecedent dominance ending up in 280k at BlizzCOn?

Serral making uncharacteristic mistakes tbh. The three things he's best at imo are defense, multitask and not making mistakes so this is surprising.

Can we talk about the fact that burrow and unburrow are different hotkeys now and you literally can't put them on the same hotkey anymore

Is it even a nerf in this match-up?

it makes shitty ravager build really strong and removes Cyclones as an emergency defense against later Roach allins if you scout them too late.

Serral has always been completely untested vs top Korean Terrans. I think blizzcon would have ended a lot differently if Serral had got matched with Maru or Ty at any point.

except TvZ imo. Dream vs Life and Dark are still the most impressive games I've ever seen.

Even then, to casual viewer a lot of modern TvZs may look more impressive. The actual skill of the players might be the same or worse, but LotV just looks more scrappy. Especially in lategame.

Also both the Dream vs Life matches are all-time great series. A lot of TvZs back then were pretty straight forward, especially in the mech times.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs
