Serral got beaten soundly. Reynor had two very close matches with Clem in the last week. Nobody was talking about zerg imba while serral was getting wrecked. | ||

Sadly you will just die to ling-bane if you try to transition into ghost-raven-liberator on any map in the pool. It would be somewhat realistic on split-maps, but there are none of these in present pool. | ||

If Trap can take a map, thats good. If he can take two maps its amazing. If he get more maps we know Reynor has suffered from some kind of stroke before the finals. | ||

I just don't have any. I want him to prove me wrong, but I just don't think he's got it in him. | ||

My argument is that queens are a design / balance nightmare - it's a unit that shuts down most early aggression, so that it's a lot easier for a zerg player to reach the late game 70-90 worker eco. Queens make the game really boring. Another issue is the larva mechanic. Making a change to both would really help things. | ||

At least do your research before shouting this nonsense out into the wilds. | ||

Most maps are super open centers with a lot of counter attack paths. | ||

Maybe it would, even though Ghosts are now equal range with upgraded lurkers iirc. It would drastically change the tempo of the game for the bio/mines style and therefore T would probably have to aim for very very late game, ie. split map and better trades, to win it. | ||

That's because Serral fanboys were derailing the thread into Serral consistency = GOAT. | ||

I understand, they have to keep saying that else they would have to say it was due to other reasons. Yes, they were bullying Nathanias on Reddit a few days ago for pointing out the T weaknesses in TvZ. It is weird though, a real caster should also be able to put games in their context and allude to the 3 years of uninterrupted zerg dominance we had. Is it really the role of a caster to ignore that? Also, it is weird seeing as Clem has beaten both Reynor and Serral. | ||

I've watched some Age of Empires II games recently and they go up to 130-150 of 200 in worker supply. Crazy. | ||

As large of economy as you can get away with is always a winning strategy in any war, let alone war game. 50% is just paying respect to the fact that supply efficient units in SC2 are very expensive. | ||

And on Golden Wall, he basically got there at the same time as lurkers came online. It's mostly down to top zerg getting incredibly good at defending imo | ||
