Are you suggesting Zerg is OP at high Elo and there should be rebalancing? By your logic, when we have figured out builds/strategies, which is eventually, then Zerg will win. And that's when the game is perfect when one race with the highest ceiling performing at their best will win everything? I would have to strongly disagree. I wish the 3 races can be balanced in different stages of the game, but knowing that's super difficult (early/mid/late). Though from the latest EWC, Clem showed that Terral might just have a higher ceiling. Some are arguing that Serral just didn't perform well getting 0-8 by Clem. And some are saying it's cause Serral didn't practice as much due to military or mentality. Interested to learn more from you and the community. | ||

 Thank you very much for the video  Edit: Oh, I totally forgot to mention, that i'm not too suprised to see Zest crowned as the GOAT Edit Numero Due: On August 20 2024 15:05 johnnyh123 wrote: [...] Though from the latest EWC, Clem showed that Terral might just have a higher ceiling. [...] a) True, Clem showed that Terran might have a higher ceiling. But by the same logic Serral showed over the last couple of years that Zerg might have a higher ceiling. b) Wait for his level up. I'm a true believer that in the not too distant future Serrals just gonna be better than the rest again. | ||

I'm happy to see you guys enjoyed the video and made the effort to give feedback. Let me know if anyone of you have something else in mind that would be cool to look at (data wise). I'm always on the hunt for new ideas on how to visualize cool gaming/esports data. Best, Christian | ||

Serral had been 4-0'ed multiple times before he was 5-0'ed. Which takes nothing away from Serral's incredible accomplishments any more than Maru getting 4-0'ed takes away from his. I don't think either have ever been as dominant as Flash was in any kind of scene as competitive as the BW scene was for all long as Flash was dominant. Not really comparable. | ||
