Not just a Lotv thing, zerg has always been able to hit 60+ supply max if they want to, but yeah if your 3rd gets denied it's always going to look much worse.

The game was pretty even then Serral just started picking him apart, it's making me worried for Classic that he's going to get stomped 5-0 or 5-1

Yeah this one is done too.
3 games of the tournament left
|
I'm also not sure if Classic has any practice partners capable of playing like Serral, I don't know any zergs besides him and Reynor capable of doing the multitask/split/nydus style nearly this well

I hope Classic selects a strat and commits to it. This way of playing is a gift for Serral.

To practice for Clem, Serral and Reynor often play against two semipros playing Terran on archon. Classic could try that in the future?
Then again, are there even any semipros in Korea? A few, but all of the ones I can think of are P or T

Zerg units are way supper tanky including the lurker, if zerg are biological units Storms should do much more damage to then... thing is zerg doesn't seem to have a real weakness, their economy can be touched by anything due to the versatility queen provides, that allows zerg to get into the midgame lategame with a very strong position and they just crush up with a remax army.
something crazy has to be do other wise zerg will win everything with just A move.

Kinda true.
The difference was that Zerg couldn't tech behind their quick max-out quite so fluidly in WoL or HotS.
Hopefully Classic can make the next few games more entertaining.
I'm very underwhelmed so far...

Yeah not writing him off unless this continues. Their series in groups was a lot closer than the 3-0 indicated.
Two games of questionable decisions.
First with the premature oracles, Twice in the second with the blink pivot then into tempest storm.
Probably the worst thing you can do vs Serral.

This Serral guy seems pretty good.
Finally a classic game from Classic, 21 drone kills seems like a good jumping off board to go into lategame.

Zerg can do everything uninterrupted, and that should not be like that, the limitation zerg had on BW was larva, u only get 3, here u get as many as u want and then that an issue.

Killed 20 workers with adepts and then held the all-in counter.

I wonder when the last time Gladepts did so much damage against Serral was?
My memory is probably just being faulty, but I can't remember him taking damage like that for a while.
Another fairly one-sided bop, but nice that the whitewash has been taken off the table!

Serral was too far out with queens / missed wall and adepts got by getting 21 drones.
He actually made it look close but would have probably been better off attacking the natural over 3rd and potentially going for the core but the observer literally never showed it so we couldn't see the layout

He harassed with Adepts after breaking into the game due to a late wall in, got 21 drone kills which made Serral go for a roach / ravager all in which he defended with some clutch static wards, good positioning of batteries and good micro on blink Stalkers.
