Neeb leading against Serral!? Lets go Neeb! Been a while since I last watched Starcraft.


It's not just that he's winning, it really looks like he's gonna win this. The feeling of watching this is quite different from other series where Serral or Reynor was down 0-2 but you still knew you were probably losing.


idk, that game 4 looked awful


It doesn't matter if he ends up losing, just the fact that it looked like he was going to win is enough. We haven't had that in, like, at least 3 years. I might start watching again.

Neeb and herO both take the gold as the 4th, and both get smashed. It just doesnt make sense for that kind of move, unless he was walling off the entire right side.

Yeah the gold is a terrible idea as a 4th, it's just too far away.

Welp

Threw game 3 from unbelievably far ahead, all downhill from there. Zerg is inevitable.

Serral too good, but I don't like his chances vs the gauntlet of Protosses that's coming up.

In his past three series he's lost games, looked lost and confused, and started playing a lot better. If he retains some knowledge and doesn't need to lose games to remember how to play ZvP I think he'll be fine.

But Zerg is supposed to have shitty cheeses. That's the reason reddit tells me they should be allowed to be the strongest in almost every other phase of the game.

If Serral winning a series made you want to watch more StarCraft then I'm not sure why you stopped.

Not sure what to tell you, I can't watch a game where my race is hopeless at winning. This was clearly not hopeless. If you're going to say that you knew Serral was winning this series when it was 0-2, you're lying to yourself.

I thought Neeb didn't even need to leave the 3rd game when he did. I think he still had a shot at winning.

I don't think his matches are going to get harder from this point on.

That both races have a good chance of outplaying the other, and that there is a variety in a matchups are very healthy signs. There were even debates if ZvP is more watchable than TvZ now when queen walks are gone.

The games today seem to be more about being clever and strategic than executing razor sharp unstoppable timings or building unbeatable armies. This has to be one of the better tourneys gameplay wise for a long time, all matchups considered.

Zoun messed it up more, I think all 4 of his buildings were taken down with 1 round of biles.

Right at the start, too. He clumped up cannons and batteries to the max vs biles.

I wonder why Zoun is playing with all these older school builds instead of herO style. I guess it's working well enough for him but still strange to see.
