Congratulations Serral, dominant run | ||

Queens look like they may potentially need more balancing, mass Queens all over the place has just really evolved into a catch all against Terran early aggression and is letting Zerg play ridiculously greedy. The Queen needed to be nerfed to fix ZvP, it was nerfed and now I'd say ZvP has overtaken ZvT as far as match up quality is concerned, probably time to start looking into either reigning in Transfuse (preferable as it's still so powerful defensively) or reducing creep spread potential. Second thing I'm noticing? Serral is a freak of nature, even if Queens are still overtuned. | ||

I don't think anything can be done now with the current state of development with how good zerg is in this game outside of a GSL format tournament that allows for player exploiting | ||

Makes it difficult to really be enthusiastic about the game tbh. Ofc there are many, many more aspects to it, a playerbase which doesn't get new blood which potentially could switch things up more as just one example. But it doesn't feel like the other two races are truly competitive in the sense that having players of similar skill level will lead to them winning about the same amount / in a similar way. | ||

Zerg always performs a lil bit worse when there's a meta shake and then it returns to them figuring it out and at this piint it feels like meta shakeups just happen way to rarely. | ||

(Not a commentary about this serie, but in general it look kind of silly and a bit random if the terran see it or not) it is silly, but I was thinking more that burrowed movement should have a more pronounced animation so that the terran can react at least. I'm not sure if it needs to be obvious when the burrowed infestor is stationary. you could argue that widow mines are obvious when stationary and burrowed so by that rule all zerg units should be obvious when stationary also. either way... 1 neural + emp being game-ending is a problem | ||

I think it was alot less of an issue back then with the slower economy, you just couldn't afford that many Queens early on, the faster LOTV economy has greatly benefited Zerg I think that's a pretty popular and reasonable consensus. But, it's alot easier to nerf the Queen lol, like I said one Transfuse nerf and now ZvP looks pretty good now, the balance team should consider it I think. Btw what in God's name is going on with the aesthetics for this tournament? This is actually embarrassing to witness, FearDragon is probably going to go kick his own ass right after the camera go off. A balloon animal trophey? A Cake? Cheap plastic curtains from some random party rental place? Jesus Christ :/ | ||
