Please no 5-0 it's inevitable e: inevitable jinx :D It isn’t!! Let’s fucking go Classic!!! What happened, how did Classic take a game? 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.
I really thought committing to the wall in kill was going to backfire at the time but it was the perfect call

I'm not sure I agree that Zerg can do everything uninterrupted.
We just saw what happens if a build can catch Zerg out and interrupt them.
I guess there's an argument to be made that Protoss/Terran players shouldn't have to rely on catching Zerg out to do damage in the early game, but I don't feel knowledgable enough about Zerg scouting to talk about that.

They are given the tools to do so, to stall zerg grow early game.

Serral's PoV is ridiculously fast.
Well this is over
|
If the first storms connected he could've hold, big "if".
|
Meh.
The Gladepts did nothing and Serral's Zergling counter did something.
The game was over after that.
|
He just killed him...?
What the hell. Guess I underestimated the initial damage.

Storm killed plenty of Serrals units, Classic's problem was that he was down 70 supply.

Crazy decision making with 0 hesitation to easily mow through that base then take the game.
Right before the extra 3 cannons too. Absolutely wild.

What the hell.
Classic was super behind after the openings.
If Protoss commits to an harassment build and gets nothing done, whilst also losing Probes and units to a simple Zergling runby, Protoss is usually going to get steamrolled in the midgame.

Serral so good he brings out the cope that storm is too weak.
Some clinical games by Serral so far.

Such a shame Reynor threw away that win against Serral. Could have had some goated final day games instead

This is embarrassing to be honest. Every time Classic is getting hit with a ling runby or Hydra attack he is floating 700 minerals above what he can even warp in. Literally 1 cannon at his 3rd would've saved 15 probes. 4 cannons at his 4th and he holds this all in.
This is some basic Starcraft that was figured out back in Brood War. When you are versus Zerg, just throw a bunch of Photon cannons down so you can put your full focus on your deathball and not having to get out of position.
These games show that this patch is way too strong for Protoss players, even Patchtosses like Goblin can get 1 game from qualifying for EWC. For Classic to be playing this poorly and still almost holding attacks is insane. Build a damn photon you scrub. I never read replies.

Clearly we should buff psi storm! Weakest spell in the game I think we should massively increase the damage. Terran players definitely won't suffer at all

that probe save holy fuck

Classic is getting sloppy, looks like a 5-1

Storm killed plenty of units, but it didn't really matter when Serral had so much more supply than Classic.
Classic was just too far behind after how badly the openings went.
His expensive Gladept committment did nothing, and he also took damage from an inexpensive Speedling counter.
The game was over as soon as that happened.
Everything afterwards was meaningless.
|
Glad to see Classic playing standard, even if he lost to Serral earlier it looked more promising than playing build roulette.
|
I swear I rarely see Zerg loss when they max out at the 8 minute mark.
