Well well, I might have a big zerg biais but the fact is seeing korean z performing this way in gsl is generally a sign of imbalance.

I mean, it was funny watching how somehow Terran does not have a counter to mutalisks anymore, but it has little to do with imbalance here.

I'm curious why Innovation went 3CC macro every game. Against Dark in the group stage he brought different openings every game, mixed it up and applied a lot of pressure.
The only game that looked even close at one point was the last game were the hellion drop did good damage. Maybe overconfidence, thinking that his standard macro should be better than DRG?

And now Dream basically does the same thing, going macro and hoping that the zerg doesn't know how to play zerg lategame? IMO Innovation and Dream should have prepared more heavy pressure and all-in builds. BC into 2-base 5-rax, proxy 2 or 3 rax, anything to throw the zerg off his game.
Feels like neither Innovation nor Dream have an actual gameplan tailored to their opponents, looks like they play it like it's a ladder game

For Rogue and DRG they just play their standard games, no need to switch up if you can just straight-up win like that


Well, clearly in the weeks leading up to the GSL RO16, the Korean Zergs hatched a conspiracy to make it seem like match-up TvZ favored Terran heavily, making Terrans feel like they would win if they could just play safe macro games. It's been paying off for the Zergs

that's a level of coordination that can only be explained by zerg players being a real hivemind. How the hell are protoss and terran supposed to compete with that? I'm predicting zerg to win every single GSL forever now

3 liberators costs almost the same as thor, got better mobility, so it's harder for zerg to do a magic box trick.

A proper usage of liberators on the other hand - is another sad topic

I'd say you need only 3 of 4 libs in order to be safe from muta + some widow mines

Aren't the libs the reason zergs stopped making mutas?

They also just don't deal that much anti-air damage, especially when corruptors are involved

Terran doesn't win a map in 2 BO5

Both Terrans got bopped more or less today. Ouch.

If Liberators can be massed via reactors that'd mess up the meta a bit, but they can be made in numbers to at least force a zerg player from considering into going heavy muta investment.
