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 | ||

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. | ||

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

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. 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. | ||

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. | ||
