Btw, Lambo lost 0-3 against Innovation, I would not say he has the best TvZ in EU. Edit:Heromarine clearly is the best Terran in the world(it's sarcasm). | ||

Well, it's not that they lack practice. Rogue's ZvT is solid and I guess they are more likely to play against Dark's and Solar's; recent tournament results also seem to suggest Terran wins the lategame more often against Zerg. | ||

I get it that they're Zerg's power unit, but broodlings were wiped out by libs/blue flame, and the broodlords were annihilated by lock-ons. They're slow, fragile, expensive, the armor upgrades are slow... they're outranged by thors (G1). But I think Serral needs to try harder. Even if there was a balance issue, he's supposed to beat European terrans. I guess he did say that winning Blizzcon was his main goal, so not sure if he's similarly motivated as last year to try harder and improve himself or he just wants to get by and make some more money before starting a normal life. I hope to see better plays from him in the future. | ||

They're slow, fragile, expensive, the armor upgrades are slow... they're outranged by thors (G1). But I think Serral needs to try harder. Even if there was a balance issue, he's supposed to beat European terrans. I guess he did say that winning Blizzcon was his main goal, so not sure if he's similarly motivated as last year to try harder and improve himself or he just wants to get by and make some more money before starting a normal life. I hope to see better plays from him in the future. i agree that serral underperformed compared to how he normally plays. but in game 1, which is what i was really referring to (late late game) he still outplayed heromarine for most of the game until all those expensive air units were melted by thors. heromarine was taking bad engagement after bad engagement, then 5 thors come out and the game completely turns around? game 2 serral, for whatever reason, was making the wrong unit composition in the early-mid game and then got blind sided, so it's a little more understandable. i just dont know what a zerg player is supposed to do thors and cyclones melt zerg T3 air units, hellbats massacre lings and broodlings, hydras are zoned out by liberators and cyclones are just killing everything. cant even do ling runbys because of planetary fortress....the list goes on | ||

How were the games? Bad, Serral didn't know what to do against battle mech So was it the jet lag this time or some other random excuse? What excuse? Heromarine legitimately won. It's crystal clear Serral is not the dominating juggernaut he was the last year, but that's not an excuse. If someone would like to throw in something like "outplay" that might be the case it's appropriate. not sure what serral was supposed to do when his fleet of zerg's most expensive units just melt to a mech ball fuck i wish the most expensive zerg unit was the hydralisk i mean the broodlord + viper fleet lol His vipers were doing well.. Serral was keeping them alive, recharging them, using them properly. Same with his infestors in G1. The broodlords though... I get it that they're Zerg's power unit, but broodlings were wiped out by libs/blue flame, and the broodlords were annihilated by lock-ons.

But the meta may force them to explore some alternatives | ||

Sometimes I regret we are on a moderated forum, polite and considerate answers evidently can't scratch your senseless bias and you refuse to even try to understand. Serral is a human sc2 player in 2019, apparently; he can lose series. Losing a game is not necessarily being outplayed, you know, and a 3-4/2-3 loss cannot be called "being crushed". IF you could look at the games in a more objective way, you would not use those terms incorrectly; to make you happier, there is at least one game today in which we might say Serral effectively got hardly outplayed, UNLIKE what happened in his series against soO and Innovation. | ||

We don't know if he's gotten well in the last 5 days unfortunately, but regardless Heromarine played better in the series like soO and Inno made a few less mistakes and played a bit better overall in their series against Serral. And Serral said he got sick after IEM so it didn't have an impact versus soO. | ||

Eh, I like it when Maru loses because I hate seeing a shit ton of proxies and Maru was proxying literally every game in the GSL at one point. It was nice to see his bullshit get punished at Blizzcon and to see him lose after Blizzcon as well because it was just so nauseating for me to watch Maru proxy people to death every game. I actually stopped watching GSL when he was playing because of it. | ||

Because worn out after the long previous game? Heromarine went for a push and Reynor didn't have what he needed to defend. Those 2 games could have gone exactly the same way if the map order was swapped. But maybe Reynor should have saved some energy in the first game instead of doing a Fantasy GG timing. | ||

You didn't watch WESG :[ ? Nah but I mean after Katowice, WESG, early elimination of Stats, soO and INno in GSL and the average results for Serral and Neeb this weekend I feels like we don't have a solid contender for best player in the world anymore (or even in any region), even the top like 4-5 isn't that clear. The last 3-4 tournament have been all over the place, it's been a while since we had unexpected (or at least non-consistent) results kind of feel like everything is up in the air. | ||

His loss to TIME is also a testament to that. | ||

I could be wrong but I believe she has to 2-0 Cham, if it's 2-1 and Neeb 2-0s Puck then I believe it's 12-5 each and Neeb take's 1st... Er, maybe Neeb takes 2nd, and Scarlett 3rd, with Time taking 1st at 12-4. If Time drops a game against Astrea (I don't see it happening, but fun to think about), and Scarlett 2-1's Cham and Neeb 2-1's Puck, then I have no idea what happens, possibly some form of tie-breaker match since there's no way of resolving three players where they've each beat one and lost one and have same map score. | ||

Then what would happen? Edit: Nevermind, map scores just updated on liquipedia. | ||

I think I'd give a slight edge to Neeb in terms of winning it all. His loss to TIME was very cheesy and I'm not sure a repeat is likely to happen there. I also rate his PvZ as stronger than Scarlett's ZvP. I don't think it's too likely TIME loses before playing Neeb either. | ||

I don't see any of the other players winning a bo7 against Scarlett, like not even close. The same goes for TIME and Neeb, though I can see Neeb going down in a Bo5 PvP on a VERY bad day. But yeah, for me Neeb is still the favourite to take it home. | ||

Yeah 2018 was good year for viewership but I didn't personally like to see how only Maru and Serral were winning everything (I am biased because I wasn't really a fan of either tbf). | ||

There would have been time to play some matches before and after Katowice I feel. But if that is too much, it could have been spread out over the last week at least. At the very least I don't think it's optimal for viewers to juggle 4 streams for 7 hours a day if they want all the action. | ||

This could have been multiple weeks long to really bring back the old WCS feeling (yes, I miss the olden days of 2013-2015 where WCS functioned as a league). Instead of doing it in one weekend, doing it on 2 days a week for 3-4 weeks. This would also have given them the chance to reduce the ridiculous break between Ro16 and Ro8. We went from February to end of March with no games played and I think that was a bit unnecessary. Format is great, schedule is rough. Yes, exactly, I honestly didn't even know it would be all played within two days until I've seen it on the upcoming matches page, hell, even stretch it over workdays. | ||
