Expecting roaches on a small map wasn't that silly but he should have gone for widow mines after making a few tanks. It's situations where there are 10+ mines on the map where Clem starts to outplay Serral. | ||

But Serral switched to Hydra right around when Clem start switching to Mines, forcing Clem to make more tanks agains. | ||

All of his tank push get cleared up wait to easily, and in the end he had nothing to defend against Lurker. Having said that, I believe Curious Mind is a heavy Zerg favor map because of how open it is, Zerg get full surrounding pretty much everywhere on the map. Hope that Clem will do much better for the rest of the map pools. A lot of the new maps look problematic, Jagganatha level. It is probably too early to tell but we're immediately back to an almost all-zerg playoff brackets. That said, if Clem had not positioned the tanks so far ahead during the very first push, he probably could have at least severely hurt Serral and his fourth. | ||

If zoun didn't forfeit we'd have had a perfect bracket tbf. | ||

None of the other big 4 zergs can missplay like this while playing excellently the rest of the game. | ||

Except solar ofc but I consider jim a bit below the big 4 as he didn't win a lot of premier lately. I actually wonder when was his last premier tournament win... Was it a dreamhack back in hots ? | ||

Was it a dreamhack back in hots ? Solar is definitely the best active player to never win things (or even make it that deep in tournaments like code S.) He usually looks good getting eliminated so I'm not sure if it's even a mental block, maybe just terrible luck? | ||

I mean he has been in 12 "premier" finals in his career so his career hasn't totally been lackluster. | ||

None of the other big 4 zergs can missplay like this while playing excellently the rest of the game. Serral looked significantly better than Clem throughout the entire series until the last few minutes of the last game. The game 5 was actually the first time I ever seen Clem be cost-inefficient after the first 10 mins in a TvZ. After that he just looked completely lost. I wonder how big of an impact the sensor tower had because it felt like Serral had no way of attacking the left side of the map with the sensor tower there. | ||
