Energy recharge mean more energy for storm, especially in critical situation.

I just think Protoss players realize Storm now is better than Colossi/Disruptor and commit into it more frequently and earlier. Also the lack of long range unit from Terran meaning its harder to zone out the Templar, and the hallucination Phoenix plus Obs always give out the Terran army location for better planning of the storm.

With only TvT ahead: Is there really a chance Ryung of all people would qualify for EWC? Gotta say, I really didn't foresee that the korean qualifies would become the most fun ones. Feels like so many players are either inconsistent or on the same level as soon as you take out Maru and herO.

Technically also true for Europe, but it feels like that after Serral, Clem and Reynor, there is still a tier of player before everyone else. But in Korea? Really everyone could take it

What also crazy is the spot from GSL S2 might fall down all the way to the 5th-6th player as 5 players there already qualified, so Rogue might just need to beat Gumiho to qualify for EWC.

Just read this seconds prior to tuning in to the stream and watching GuMiho eat every storm in sight, haha.

also EMP radius is much smaller now. For some time already but it always takes a bit for the meta to catch up

Sad end for creator, if Gumiho qualifies through GSL then creator gets to the global qualifiers despite losing this match right?

Creator consistently losing in the most frustrating ways imaginable, complete with GuMiho reverse sweeping and accidentally manner muling. Poor guy.

Somehow Elazer only practice the build of +1 armor Roach against 2-2 Bio?

Serral cruising the EU qualifier 13-1, as was probably to be expected.

Serral look stable as always, but Reynor chose to go Muta twice in a row wasnt doing anything, and his opening being too greedy as well.

I think ZvZ is actually Serral's best match up now, he's lost one ZvZ series in 2024 and 2025 combined (his recent 3-4 to Dark.) Considering he only loses to Clem in ZvT, ZvP might also be his worst matchup. Funny how times change.
