The point is, banelings are hardly the only instant erasers of mineral lines. How are they more of a killjoy than any of the other mechanics that do this? Mines are still definitely worse, given they arrive sooner and the medivac can fly straight over multiple pieces of static D / defending AA units and still get a ton of kills. | ||

Of course nerfing mine drops would probably make PvT balance worse whereas nerfing baneling drops can only help PvZ balance. | ||

They take some time to burrow, they are expected and more important most terrans dont use them after 4-6 minute mark while with bane drops they could come any time. More importantly you can queue multiple bane drops in different mineral lines without really having too look. Thats not the same with widow mines. Hell even Serral admitted they are busted, but what can ya do | ||

Maybe zerg would still be fine if banelings could not be loaded into dropperlords, because of their volatility lorewise. | ||

Hope we get at least a bit of hype going when he plays Lambo tomorrow Group A is going as planned Group B I expected Harstem to be way better. Like 1-4: Gabe, Thermy, Harstem, Drogo in this order Group C Top 3 as expected, 4th is open for grabs Group D ehh Elazer? My predictions were Reynor, Elazer, Mana, Vanya in this order | ||

First I've heard of her, but it'd be nice if Maynarde gave her some space. They've been casting ANZ events together for many years, I think this is just how things work out the best between them. I'm underwhelmed by Firefly's performance in this tournament so far. He's put on some way better performances in various other events to the point where I'd have called him the #2 Chinese player without question but this ain't it. | ||

I'm quite puzzled by this too. | ||

Maynarde and Zeph actually started as a casting archon, I think they won some amateur casting competition back in the day | ||
