Glad to see there isn't some WCS ban/pick order™ going on. Is there some seeding to determine who bans/picks first, or is it randomized?

Maybe let's take it easy with the snap judgements and remember that Cure got away with super greedy 3rd base while Trap managed no economic damage to speak of. Cure was rich like TaKe up in dat game

No, I think it's pretty safe to say this after we've seen a whole game.
why even

it's not a snap judgement though

the numbers dont add up

protoss just got their BASIC UNIT heavily nerfed dps wise and Terran got a massive buff in terms of liberator timing

the zealot buff might help in the ultra lategame and the liberator change might be a late game nerf, but there is a huge dynamic shift in terms of Protoss defending timings.

The game was meticulously balanced around such thing (liberator was fine tuned over the years, and the zealot is a core unit)

it's a massive shakeup....


But that was not what those two games were about. In g1, Trap was dead long before lib range. In g2, Trap managed to throw away his phoenixes for very little. Cure just played much better in both games.

That said, you could be right with the points you make, but we just haven't seen it yet.

Not sure if Stargate openers is the way to go vs T now. They can perhaps work if sufficient economic damage is dealt, but I think fast Collosi with perhaps blink to snipe medivacs would be a better strat.

It was ridiculous, zealots are totally useless, and bio crush everything (remember that stim got a buff).

The good point is it will show how bad this patch is, the problem is the whole tournament is just a crash test.
