I mean, a clump of corruptors swimming on top of a clump of mommaship + whatever protoss went for is pretty crap, but if it's like this match, with spellcasters being the main focus, where it's infestors + vipers vs HT + mommaship, it's pretty fun.

One of Sc2s biggest design issues has always been that you need air units to counter tier 3 and it's always pretty lame. In vT matchup they tried to reduce the severity of this by buffing Thors vs tier 3 air. However, the role of the thor and viking should have been reversed from the start with vikings being a counter to lighter/more mobile tier 2 air and thors to heavy air. Similarly the other races should have strong ground counters to tier 3 air.

Maru vs Serral is today? Woah. I thought we were done for the day. Seems Maru has a big advantage. He had a brutal series vs Oli, but he had a long rest.

Were the player cards published somewhere? Serral has everything highest excluding attack and speed. herO has the highest attack rating nad I'm curious who got the highest speed. Clem or Reynor?

All the action all over the place makes for a fun game.

If it’s just those comps posturing and dancing around static D it’s nae so enjoyable.

I don't really like the super high impact spell casting that much either. When you see the toss getting fungaled the fight is over before it even starts.

Even though I am an AOE4 player now, nothing beats high level SC2.

It is just to beautiful, especially when Serral plays.

Kinda wish they'd do that 2nd vs 2nd tomorrow as opening match. Guess it was a long day for both already

The difference between Serral and other zergs is his skill at telling when those fungals will end the fight. Put anyone else in that game 5 (except maybe Dark) and they would've overcommitted on the follow up to a subpar fungal or failed to capitalize on one that was just good enough to profit from. Playing correctly after the fungal hits is just as important as landing it in the first place

And the loser of the 2nd vs 2nd should really go at least to the semi of the KO bracket

Its going to be funny if Oliveria/herO loses 1st round bo3. Win 3 bo5s just to finish last.

Wtf is tasteless talking about? The original ESWC was 20+ years ago, ofc 2 games can coexist in a lan, and nerds played for pride and bargging rights before there was any price money.

Agreed. This match counting for as much as 3 wins in the bracket seems excessive. Granted, 2 of those 3 knockout matches are bo3 which I guess makes it a bit more fair but is bo3s are disappointing for other reasons.
