My problem is, I can't really tell if something is great play, except obvious ones like reactinf fast to stuff and landing spells.

What did you switch to and how has it been? Thinking about playing Terran because of zvz. All mirrors are pretty harsh (especially on this map pool), not sure switching does anything. Not to mention you have to learn stuff first. Every time I see someone make marauders in bio vs bio TvT I facepalm. But at least you don't play TvT 80% of your ladder games Seriously though, I'm in masters league and I see 80% Terran 19% Zerg and the occasional protoss. It's insane how many terrans and how few protosses I'm playing

What did you switch to and how has it been? Thinking about playing Terran because of zvz. It's just that TvT is also not as cool as it was from what I've seen. Yeah Terran. But I have a longtime history offracing Terran at near my zerg level (since late WoL), so it wasn't really a big step. It's more like I just don't play zerg anymore, instead of playing two races. TvT is really bad by comparison to WoL and HotS. I used to be a Mech player in TvT and TvZ, so I'm not happy about how Terran plays these matchups these days, but it's still more fun than ZvZ and ZvP for me. The main thing you have to be aware if you switch to T these days is that you really need to get a mindset going that you shouldn't let your P/Z opponent's get lategame (you can let them get there, but you need to make it hard for them because it's the only way you will get there evenly - so try to kill them and work from there) and that keeping tanks in medivacs is more important than anything else in TvT. It's a very unstrategic race at the moment, but mechanically a lot of fun.
Okay thanks, I'll just test the waters on NA first.

Damn. I mean I guess Losira and Taeja were long shots but :/

Oh cool, 2 mirror semis to lead to a guaranteed non mirror finals. I like this much better than the opposite. I'm hoping TY vs Zest. edit: also predicting that

Zerg got fucking rekt this season lol. I would prefer a zerg instead of Cure or Dream but apparently terran was too stronk. What the hell happened to Speed btw, wasn't he artosis' chosen?
I am still a devout follower of literal god TY but Zest doesn't look like he will lose

I think Dear might beat Zest honestly. And I think Zest vs TY finals is way too hyped to end up being any good

I think the 4 players left all are in the top5 of their races, probably even top 3. Zest is the huge favorite though i think, PvP always was his bets matchup and the game he lost to Dear was because of a huge derp. TY vs Zest would be a teamkill, these finals are usually kinda weird :/

Maybe you should learn something from him.

Yup that is correct. Avilo's cute little turtle builds might work fine at lower level play, won't work at higher level play.
Also damn on Losira losing, I knew hew most likely would but no moar zergs
