Well, Tasteless, banes cost 2x minerals as gas, so of course the zerg building mass ling bane hydra is low on minerals and high on gas.

Man, I forgot about the bane hp buff until someone just mentioned it. Reverting bane hp buff would be the single cleanest way to try and fix zerg's power at the top level. The only reason it got buffed in the first place was due to ByuN microing really well vs single digit numbers of banelings in late 2016 and winning TvZ games nearly instantly

It’s a tricky balancing act, I’m not sure how Zerg hold some of these fiendish modern pushes with the old HP banes, equally when a Zerg gets to 80/90 drone eco they’re absurdly cost efficient even with basically human optimal splitting.

You really can’t control bio much better than Byun, Clem or Cure have shown this tournament, or Maru usually does when he has more TvZs and they’re still getting ground down

The one plus is that the obvious tournament favorites are out so it's pretty exciting who will win. I just hope reynor doesn't win because he's pretty much the last remaining one you would normally pick as a favorite.

I think there's a good chance the last three series are bangers


I would bet Reynor to win on a 4 or 5 to 1 odd honestly. I think he's a massive favorite now. I don't trust anyone else to deliver


I'd give Cure like 65% chance to beat Reynor. Solar vs Reynor is either 50/50 or slightly Reynor favored in my opinion


To me those are esl weekly cup number 248 odds, but 150 k$ on the line with Reynor in the chair I don't think either Cure or Solar are likely to hold their composure.


I don't have good take often, so I'm just gonna bask in this one

Even if it’s a rarity I’m not giving you this take :p

Nout about this series has Cure lacking composure he’s just not pulling it off. Serral or Maru’s exits I think you can definitely attribute to flustered mistakes but Cure’s definitely been bringing solid play here

Without saying it directly, Tastosis admit that map is a nightmare to play as a Terran. Too far to go, creep too op and no way to win by attrition either.

Also, banelings are so insanely good in large numbers it is strange Zergs bother building anything else.

Surely a game can't end by Zerg just a-moving a bunch of tier 1.5s!

The hp buff only affects banes AFTER bane speed upgrade is finished. Zergs regularly hold early game pushes with slowbanes.

It would also buff Protoss vs Zerg because it makes it obviously easier to stop baneling runbys if the banes die faster.

Oh, Cure killed the fourth, would be a shame if the map were gigantic and Reynor built two more miles away

The biggest thing in PvZ would be that banelings die with 3 storm ticks instead of 4 currently

I feel like Zerg used to really need to hold those sorts of pushes, and if they lost their 4th to those sorts of pushes, they'd almost always shortly thereafter lose the game.

What changed, exactly, to allow zergs to expand so much faster, while not weakening their army much at all?

Ah, I did not know that, but I think that would be a good change to buff protoss.
