slayers never needed saving lolz
not doing particularly well lately tbh
they were all-killed by younghwa, but who hasn't been all-killed by younghwa? They beat MVP 5-4 in the IPTL. They lost to EG in the IPTL. They beat EG in the EGMCSL. They are atm 4-0 in EGMCSL. They were in the finals of the most recent GSTL. Maybe compared to your standards, that's not doing particularly well but plenty would disagree with that
How about individual leagues bro.
How about NSHoseo? No one in the GSL. Prime? MKP made RO8 Gsl. MVP? DRG made RO8 OSL. The only teams that really look strong are ST and IM. However, it is true that Slayers isn't doing incerdibly well right now. I'll give you that.

No offense, but I think you don`t quite remember the glorious EMP of old. I think that would balance out amulet quite well in the current meta honestly...

how are individual leagues relevant when we're talking about IPTL? He said "bl/infestor saves SlayerS", implying that bl/infestor has saved SlayerS in this series, which is a team league match. I said Slayers never needed saving, meaning they never needed saving in a team league situation. Individual results are irreleevant

I think every Slayers player lost in the ro32 of Code S in this season, and almost all of them have been defeated in Code A already. Genius and Ryung both lost last night.
Hoseo is definitely doing worse, though. No one in GSL, Jjakji knocked into the abyss of Code B.

They aren't winning everything, which means that everyone gets to say "herp derp slayers so dead lulz." I can't believe how many "boxer left, the team is dead" comments i've seen.
it's not only boxer, but MMA is not doing as well as he should or used to, ryung and genius aren't doing that great (both lost in code a yesterday), and coca/puzzle are out of the GSL. they got backtoback all killed in the GSTL, and are relying on their second-string upcomers like miso, dark, etc. the team isn't nearly what it used to be, with boxer/mma/ganzi/taeja/ryung/coca/puzzle

PartinG and Rain would be even stronger in PvT, while all Terrans will return to having 15-20 Ghosts in late game TvZ.
All terrans? Even when snipe was considered "OP" the only person I saw using them effectively was MVP.
Not sure what terrans you were watching. That guy had it right, I remember tons of terrans using mass ghost.

For terran to ever to continue pushing after winning a battle in TvP, they would have to have enough energy on their ghosts, assuming they even have ghosts alive, to be able to combat the 10-15 high templar with storm that toss would immediately warp-in after losing the battle.

NSH is the only gom team doing worse than slayers imo haha prime? creator won WCS, MKP ro8 is better than MMA ro32 MVP is a bit on the down too, with their star slumping

that's why we need orbital drop ghosts! drop-in EMPs and nukes

Everything you said is true, however, coca and puzzle both have pneumonia, which were probably slayers top 2 in the past months. Genius is rather overrated because of a miracle run in 2012 GSL 1, and Ryung has never been a championship contender. Yes, MMA is not doing as well as he was, but if not for the other circumstances, is wouldn't matter so much in leagues.

well, i was talking about how slayers isn't doing particularly well, which is more where this discussion is coming from, not this team league game in particular.

Morrow and Thorzain just off the top of my head. I barely remember anything from that long ago, so for me to remember two probably represents a much larger number. I just remember in general it was a very common thing.

Yeah, that's true too. Btw your Slayers roster in your signature is quite outdated.

I should clarify then that the only terran using it to great effect was MVP.
MVP basically got ghosts nerfed, he even said it in an interview.

every player in his signature has either left the team, not showed up to any events, has left the slayers house or not in the GSL x.x
