Not the most entertaining quarterfinals. Watching mutalisks wreck bases for almost 3 hours...this was not well invested time. Are there no good timings in TvZ? Artosis said he always skips the reaper stage, but right now, I usually fast forward to the 5 min mark. Before that all you seem to get are hellions failing to stop queens and then the game does not kick off until the 70 drone mark.

Not sure what to say about today, except happy for DRG!

Inno looked way scarier against Dark last round, had more tricks up his sleeve. I wonder if he just thought he could go robot macro mode and overwhelm DRG and didn’t really have a backup plan when that patently wasn’t happening.

Hoping for some tighter encounters next round!

Lot of faith in TY to take out the upper echelon of Protoss by himself.

It felt like Inno's splits were really off today, he was taking a lot of baneling hits dead-on. If this wasn't the only offline tournament happening right now I'd say lag was throwing him off, but obviously that wasn't the case. Just not his day, and props to DRG.

Lately whenever I saw Inno playing he wasn't exactly good at splitting.
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

#Terranpatch indeed.

We're getting ZvZvPvP semifinals.


Don't blame the patch when it was clearly the skill gap between players.


It's always the skill gap when Zerg is winning and yet win Terran over performs in a single event for the first time in 3 years (and no Maru winning GSLs is not a Terran over performance when every other Terran is doing terribly) it is immediately the strongest race according to both the majority of TL and 90% of Reddit.


Inno 4-0'd Dark in Ro16. Now that he loses to DRG, because he played bad and got outplayerd, its the state of the game,and terrans are weak again... The Dream vs Rogue was also not decided by patch or balanca, Rogue is just way better.
Why so serious?

Dark is injured and barely able to practice. This is far from the first time Terrans have lost on this patch people just ignored all the other times because of the results in GSL S1 which was just a single event that Terran over performed in. Look at the last 10 tournaments and that is the only time they ever over performed and yet people used it to say Terran was the best race. Zerg wins everything else and people say it's skill. It's absurd.

Not sure how to edit, to clarify my above post, I do want Protoss to be buffed because zerg does seem a little too good against protoss and the gloves all in meta is a bit boring. I just want terran to have to deal with not always being able to at any point in the game have the best army, and it looks like zerg has really started to solve that, so looking forward to terran not winning all the time. DRG hype!


Very insightful post name + bunch of numbers with only 2 posts and totally not a throaway account.

Even Maru has been playing passive and trying to out-macro Zerg. Is there something the pros know that we're missing?

Looking more like a PvZ finals now

If it makes you feel better TY wins the GSL if he beats PartinG.


It's not impossible but what results really point towards that happening? TY has looked poor in everything he's played in lately and lost to DRG in the ro16. Stats looked very good vs Cure.

Stats should win v trap. Stats never beats TY, like literally never, so TY in finals. If he's in finals v a zerg, he's not going easy on em.

Implying Stats and DRG don't give us the most macro centric finals in history, wack.

i just lost interest on playing ladder due to zerg being so op, i mean literally they just need to hide behind the tanky queen while dronin up to 80, while i'm still cleaning free creep tumors that need to cost mineral to balance the game economy wise...

i mean zerg just do lings banes to deal with anything the terran does... how is that balance?

User was warned for this post


Why do people in gold even complain about balance?

I went back and watched DRG's FPVOD and my goodness. He is so fast. Who said you get slower as you age? DRG is an actual timeless god.
