Take away Serral and Reynor, suddenly you have a completely different picture. Elazer and Lambo are great, but nowhere near Serral and Reynor. | ||

Clem seemed a bit one-dimentional. No proxy rax, no mech, little early timings, no BC openers, relying too much on liberator harass and ultimately his downfall: no answer for Reynor's lurker play. His multitasking and bio play is obviously amazing, but Innovation seemed to have even better MMMM pushes, adding marauders earlier and using them to tank in blings in front. To take down someone like Reynor in 2 long series, you will have to be complete and keep him guessing. | ||

That would make it harder to connect them with creep (require more tumors to do so, which would then not be placed out on the map), and would make it harder for zerg to defend the early game. Could be an easy alternative to fixing the economy problem? | ||

His ZvZ has looked top notch lately so I feel fairly good about it. I just wish the prize pool was higher since Rogue seems to lack motivation for these smaller events. Nobody will take finals seriously because :"Cross-continental ping lol". Sadly. | ||

I'm tired of pretending that a race winning everything for 3 years is normal tbh. | ||

Zerg has the fastest units, so adding more distance doesn't really hamper them that much. | ||

You're making your life too easy by reducing this entire streak on a race, considering most Zerg (aka everyone but Serral and Reynor) are as far away from winning a tournament as all the other players. | ||

We just saw a series played on 16ms ping. Cross finals will be 140-200ms for Korea-EU matches. I have no idea why anyone would consider that insignificant. | ||

That is, 3 base behind one choke with a backdoor style like Dusk Towers. | ||

Really depressing following the foreigner scene with 3 races but only one wins. Keep watching the NA finals, I'm pretty sure we'll see a protoss champion unless Scarlett has practiced seriously and doesn't get tilted. | ||

Also some Terran players for entirety of LotV: Just because a few Korean Terrans win the lion's share of Code S trophies in LotV doesn't mean Terran is OP! | ||

Really depressing following the foreigner scene with 3 races but only one wins. I think this is just a monumental idea. Blizzard could essentially bring their balance team down to just making the game fun as they always wanted. Fantastic thought. Why even bother letting Clem try to take a championship or Astrea or Neeb when everyone can be Zerg. I can literally feel the ground opening beneath my feet this is so earth shattering. I think I am just going to stop typing and just enjoy life fully for the first ti | ||
