It was that or close to that around 2018, but nowadays i dunno kev.

It wasn't, people were just forced to watch so much of it and the hype of watching foreigners do well made up for the historic lack of enthusiam people had for ZvZ.

ZvZ was legit back then. Better than other mirrors, and better than PvZ. That leaves TvP and TvZ to fight with 2018 ZvZ for the best.

I guess zergs being the only ones with a chance of winning tournaments made ZvZ the only matchup with tension and back and fourth dynamics and whatever else makes something fun to watch.

ZvZ had a nice variety of strategy and was also a good mechanical matchup. I feel like your hatred for zerg fogs your mind.

At least BW's ZvZ was brutal and fast to make up for everything it lacked.

Sure, it's completely true that a lot of "guhh another ZvZ final" was down to the fact it meant no terran or protoss could beat them, and not that ZvZ was actually a bad matchup to watch.

A lot of people would respond with "Why does everyone complain? ZvZ is a fun matchup", which might be true but kinda misses the point

I for one have a strange nostalgia for 20 minutes pure roaches games, zvz has been the match up that got the most help from LOTV (along with tvp maybe)
