Why did Parting turn back? If he has killer instinct like Rogue, he can defeat Serral.

If both Team Serral and Team Reynor reach the finals, I think they should cut the side show and just play a regular bo5.

Banelings really needed that +5 hp.

Honestly, this match is the first match I've seen in a while where the incoming baneling nerf might make a difference... mostly because Serral wasted them so so badly. A few more stalkers surviving because of the damage nerf might just be the difference in those battles. That said, Serral remaxed, then remaxed again, then remaxed again, etc. So maybe not?

The baneling issue is an issue with economy and not with the unit itself imo.

Still, you can't ignore the economy aspect. Zergs are just so rich, that's why they can keep doing this. If zerg macro is to keep working the way it is, they need to have a harder time defending harass imo.

Solar over TY imo, especially on Ice and Chrome.

Isn't the queen the main problem? It only costs minerals and defends all early harassment, like clem's hellbat push that was pretty much defended only by queens.

After Artosis said that he usually skips the reaper stage in TvZ not to waste his time I started jumping to 5 mins. No point in watching queens spreading creep and hellions failiing to prevent it.

Yeah the queen is definitely a problem defense-wise.

someone in another thread mentioned defenders advantage but it's a good point to bring up, in brood war you could play against an insane macro zerg by being defensive and using guerrilla warfare tactics. but in sc2 if you send out too much army you instantly get overran because defense isn't strong enough.

Why doesn't Zest make an oracle for this?

E: not sure why I edited. He didn't. Why wait for the obs instead of getting an oracle?

Yeah, and if both players sit back and try to macro the Zerg is just going to grow faster because they can build workers faster. So what are you gonna do?

That PartinG vs Serral game was just frustrating to watch. I don't think Serral played particularly well at all, but you don't need to once zerg has the economy to lose and remax a million banelings at a time
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Impossible to win late game PvZ

Zerg doesn't even need to trade efficiently. Instant re-max, easy defence, even if lose drones can make 15 at once, banelings super high damage on attack move
