Is there any protoss who id considered to have the best PvZ rn? Considering good PvZ is usually taking a few maps before dying nowadays.

Funnily enough, INnoVation did show a great Golden Wall strategy today that he didn't have an opportunity to use in GSL.

I can't wait to try that one out on ladder

I feel so bad for Cure and Maru. They're gonna play at 4AM at this rate. Hope they're sleeping right now or Dreamhack is just gonna cast from replays.

PartinG, because his cannon rush is really good.

There are no Toss that are good in PvZ tbh, not to mention we are missing 2 of the top protoss (Classic and hero)

TY is an underdog against Serral but what about Maru ?
Despite a few comments here and here he showed quite a terrific tvz in the first game against Reynor.

Don't be ridiculous we're not getting Serral vs Maru.


I want to believe !

Not happening. The sc2 version of Justin Gathje gonna beat on one of them to deny us the match up.


They shall not meet in finals but maybe semi are allowed...

One of them surely has the best PvZ, just none of them have good PvZ.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Well...
Right now we got the weird situation where I feel like Korean Zerg struggle a lot, while European Zerg wreck even the best Koreans. Before, we could at least argue that in the Korean scene the Zerg are dominating as well. Right now, that's no longer the case and Reynor/Serral still seem to be on top. Which is even more impressive than their accomplishments in the past, imo.

They can't even meet when they're in the same damn Blizzcon group.

Inno is just too slow for bio, just go mech all game if he actually wants to win some tournament anymore.

Literally no one can micro bio well half as well as normal when playing cross server


not the micro, but he constantly let his unit caught off guard by the zerg, he should only stick to mech since he's capable of beating all the Zerg with it.


He literally went 4-0 against Dark with bio this morning what are you on

yeah but dark was playing cross server 400 ping at 4 AM
fuck wait


Look, Dark's computer was like 3m further away from the router at the GSL studio, which causes a perceptable difference at the GSL level. It's not something a European progamer would understand

Wish we still had classic. Classic couldn't beat top Zerg consistently, but he had enough wild ideas and the mechanics to back them up, enough that he could take a big match or two off of top zergs.

That said I hope Trap listens to sOs if he wants a chance tomorrow.

There still isn't a single Protoss on the planet that you would favor in a matchup vs a top 4 Zerg. Maybe not even top 8.

I'll just default to Stats cause of reasons.

Have we ever seen two foreigners be the top2 of their race since the beginning of sc2? Serral and Reynor look so strong compared to KR Zergs


Yes(? Serral and Reynor have been the top 2 for a while now, I think besides Blizzcon 2019 all tournaments they played where won by them and most of 2018.

I'm sure there was another I'm forgetting but Serral - Reynor finals are so common I don't even bother watching when it gets to that point.


Do you even watch the game? Reynor has yet to win anything besides foreigner only events. Serral and Reynor have not won any of the 3 IEMs since 2018. Serral won 1 of the 2 Blizzcons. They won neither WESG. They obviously haven't won or participated in any GSL events. They didn't win ASUS ROG. You must only watch homestory cups and WCS/ESL if you actually believe what you just typed.

Serral won two GSL vs the Worlds in this period.

He could have won Blizzcon I think but Reynor took him out in a tight series.

Reynor made a Blizzcon final too. Which is a runners up rather than a tournament win but it’s still huge. Even if they’re not winning everything, they’re not placing too badly in any of these tournaments really. Serral still made the finals at WESG and played a really tight 7 game series against Inno.

Katowice for whatever reason foreigners haven’t performed too well, but they have great results elsewhere. Honestly not sure why this is.

Reynor made Ro16 in GSL quite some time ago before he couldn’t even compete in WCS and I’m pretty sure it’s commonly accepted he’s a much better player now.

Glad to be finally catching a Serral game!

Honestly before 2020 I was out of the loop for another 3 years... so it was a pleasant surprise when I got back into SC to see top top foreigners, have to see how he shows up against TY now

Although it is like what, 3am in Korea now? Plus TY had to cast 4 hours this morning in GSL... hope that doesn't affect him that much :O

From what I read I missed a decent series between Reynor and Inno tho??

Really not expecting much from TY here so I guess there's a chance to be surprised positively.

So a slumping TY playing at 2 am on cross server ping against Serral? Yeah I have zero expectations for this one.

Tbh Reynor vs Inno was 4 stomps and a cool game on Golden Wall.

Dark and Rogue would like a word.

If there’s a top tier of the absolute best players in a race, Serral and Reynor are in that tier and that’s pretty unique yeah.

We’ve had Neeb having a period as a top Protoss and Serral being Serral.

Having two in that ‘S’ bracket at the same time is pretty damn unique though I think.

Exciting times for the foreign scene. Both TIME and Clem definitely have the potential to maybe ascend from being top foreign Terrans into top Terrans outright too.


I wouldn't put Dark with the others.

The reality is that even an out of shape Dark with fucked up wrists is a top 4 Zerg in the world.
