The main stream is technically in both series but they always focus on one series and only show parts of the other when time allows it. They just never were a particularly good team. | ||

If there was a $100k to first place tournament a month from now I'd bet 90% on the top 4 Zergs, 5% for Maru, and 5% for everyone else. The top 4 Zergs, especially Rogue/Reynor, really don't put as much effort in when there is less money around. Serral didn't even show for Valencia. You might not be wrong but just from the eye-test PvZ feels much more fair than before. Before the patch I felt like Protoss could only win if the Zerg made a mistake and had little room to outplay the Zerg, that's really not the case anymore | ||

Before the patch it didn't matter if half the top Zergs missed an event or if they weren't in perfect shape. One of the Zergs present there would still win or at the very least be in the finals. Seeing Zerg actually do bad at an event for the first time since like 2018 is amazing. Though one of Serral/Reynor could still make a lower bracket run and win anyways. | ||

Watching this is like watching paint dry though, something for map makers consider. | ||

Little changes make a whole lot of difference. Exactly. Now the meta may stabilize into something else pretty soon if zergs figure it out but so far it's not obvious how. Maybe through swarmhosts to better the trades? | ||

Hopefully Gumi wins, I think Gumi vs Reynor would be an interesting match. Would love to see what weird stuff he has cooked up for the new maps | ||
