That's absolutely not true though. Yes there were a lot of boring mech games but there were also really fun ones where the zerg tried everything to break the terran. Then there was also stuff like forgg was life, there simply was some form of variety

I'm pretty sure the only 2 people who enjoyed watching Zerg go to 80 drones and then suicide 3 army limits to kill a raven were avilo and mizenhauer. It was boring, it was unfair, it was all we wanted to avoid after BL/inf nerf. But this game has a tendency of going in circles into 200/200 powering.
You can't honestly tell me that bashing your head against planetaries and PDDs on Echo or Coda was more vivid than hydra bane. It was the same monotous kind of shit, except it took 40 minutes for the Zerg to kill themselves.

ForGG vs Life was gold

but imbalance is good because, you see, it creates an underdog narrative. remove shields from all protoss units so mizenhauer will be thrilled by watching protoss players reinvent the meta

LotV Mech vs Zerg is so much less entertaining/compelling/interesting/nuanced than HotS Mech vs Zerg.

Idk man. I never said this was the GOAT series of all time. It was fun
Did Maru mech it happen?

Like someone already said, not all hots mech games were bad. The best example I can come up with was revival vs jjakji back in 2014.
BitbyBit is mathematically the greatest player of all time

Well that decides it. Neeb and Nerchio are facing soO and likely sOs unless Rogue pulls a miracle. This is honestly probably the best case scenario for them too, incidentally.

I agree that's probably the best case scenario for the foreigners. Still, will it be good enough?

Assuming everyone shows up and doesn't just shit the bed, I'd give Neeb somewhere around 50/50 against soO or sOs. Lower for Nerchio of course. At a guess, maybe soO in first and Neeb in second?

Rogue has the best ZvP, but I think Dark still edges him out in ZvT. And Inno's beaten Dark before.

If rogue manages to win super tournament it would definitely be trouble for neeb. Rogue would probably top that group, while soO vs Neeb could go either way depends what soO shows up
