These little marines squads running around as spotters is a small arms race. Years ago it was 1, then it became 2 cause your 2 marines will kill your opponents 1 marine and now a 3 marine squad isn't uncommon. I wonder how high it will go?

Good win from Clem, now has taken the last 4 matches from Gabe. Also means we are going to get another Clem-Serral, and as good as Heromarine is. His TvZ just isnt good enough to make it competitive. So as viewers, it just keeps getting better!

I love how the casters tell it as it is when players make an error - I appreciate the bluntness

Hm, Neeb didnt look great at the start of the year and thought Covid would help him as that mean the regionals came back and he would play mostly against NA players again.. But boy, even in NA he now isnt the king pin anymore it seems.. And thats not just because of Neeb.. Astrea really stepped it up these last 12 months.

Astrea has improved and I'm glad that happened but Neeb has been playing so much worse in 2020, it feels like he's barely a top 10 non korean atm.

He has improved for sure, but it seems like toss right now are a bit disheartened in general which might have influenced Neeb as well
Toss are more or less extinct when it comes to winning big tourneys the last couple of years, and now when Blizzard will only make tweaks at most to change anything in the game, that will probably continue to be the case in the future of sc2. So no new young player will begin and chose toss in the hope of becoming a winner in the bigger events, and the older ones who continues will have to choose if it is worth the effort they put in.
