That is so stupid that queens only take up 1/4 of an Overlord.

That just tilted me. Reynor just broke the meta with that bullshit. It never occured to me that Queens only take up 1/4 of a Drop Overlord, that COMPLETELY changes the timing that you can queen walk, and Overlords can drop creep which eliminates the nerf to transfuse that we had a few patches ago.

He just brought evolved Queen walk back to the meta.

I don’t think this works versus normal bio openers so it doesn’t matter, mech does not deserve to be meta it’s painfully boring

I'm not worried about it vs Terran, I'm worried about it vs Protoss.

AND, that makes that counter timing work against Mech openers into Bio like Hellion/Banshee which has been a standard Bio opening for 10 years.

This is the same situation when DRG playd Maru back in Code S S1, just walk the Queen with Roach and Terran Battle Mech/Banshee cant deal with them that early. I thought that Cyclone with MagField was the answer to that but this timing just so damn quick.

Btw at this point it feels like showtimes way of playing wont work anymore with protoss to me, maybe stats can come back and prove me wrong but i dont see a future in defensive protoss gameplay.

So they're just not going to talk about the absolutely bullshit timing that Reynor hit in game 1? Seriously? Even if you didn't think it was bullshit like I did, it was INCREDIBLY important that we haven't seen in any pro game in this tournament and they're just not going to mention it in the replay?

smh.

Terran players didn't have solution yet to kill top-tier Zerg, even with Maru, or Clem. I guess we need another ZvZ and herO to dismantle players like Serral, Dark and Reynor in any of playoff matches later.
Rogue & Maru fan boy. ^^

Lol, Reynor. Adding insult to injury. "I did a defensive opening, and it just ended up killing him. I don't know why, but I'll take it"

No one's going to ask him about Game 1? Are you kidding me?! ROFL.

Game 2 wasn't even important, and that's all they focused on.

His answer to game 1 was "I thought any form of aggression would kill him. And I was right"

Calm down man. People have been playing variants of the dropperlord Queen all-in in every match-up since the day they removed their off-creep attack. There's 239089 all-ins you can use to punish greedy mech openers, and this is just another one.

Except that's a lie because Gumiho's Banshees would have easily defended any Roach/Ravager attack that Reynor threw out without the Queens being there.

The queens being part of the attack at that timing while Tanks were being transitioned to was EXACTLY what killed Gumiho, anything else Reynor would have "tried" wouldn't have been even remotely as effective.

Punish and outright kill when Gumiho had made the units that were supposed to be there specifically to defend against counter aggression are two completely different things.
