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. | ||

Benny and the Boys have about the very best picks they could hope for. Sac'd Hurricane vs Reynor and all the other matchups I'd pick them as favourites. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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? | ||

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 | ||
