You know...

This match really highlights how far SC2 has come. It's crazy that this used to be the standard pace of a match. So slow. So blobby. Limited player interaction outside of big army fights or donating units.

All of the WCS/GSL games I've watched this year have been action-packed with player interaction from like the 2:00 mark until the bitter end. Harrassment. Mindgames. Skirmishes. Multiple engagements happening at the same time for the majority of the match. Constant run-bys and drops, expansion denials/snipes etc. The game is better. Players are better. Everything is better.

I really don't understand how people can long for the WoL/HotS days over what LotV has become.

while for the most part I agree with your sentiment, I still miss HOTS TVZ and WOL TvT. Ive never seen pro level TvZ that was as entertaining to watch as early hots, constant parade pushing, constant tug of war, It was amazing. I also really miss old TvT, the introduction of medivac boost permanently changed the matchup by making it much easier to doom drop. This has really cut down on player ability to make bio tank games go to the super late game because often games are decided by some crazy doom drop or base trade instead of a long positional siege tank chess match. I do however think that PvZ and PvT and PvP are all significantly better in LOTV than they have ever been before, reducing Protos's reliance on the collosi and changing several other aspects of there race to compensate has made protoss so much more interactive and interesting both to play and play against.

Yeah, that's 100% his best match. I'm of the opinion that his game against Stats on Nimbus is his single most dominant display ever, though.
