We have been watching this for 3,5 years now (after Broodlord-Infestor's era of 2018), no patches to make the game shift. Btw, rapid fire became absurd nowdays. Well, this is just not true. Terran lategame trades more efficiently but by no way do they have an army that "can't be killed". And due to the usual economy advantage Zerg has they can overcome the lower efficiency quite easily UNLESS terran gets to split the map, but I'd argue if a Zerg lets a Terran take every base on his side of the map he deserves to lose because that can only happen if the Terran has outplayed the Zerg.
In short: lategame is balanced until split map scenario where it becomes terran favored.

I know what you're trying to say but the pro results just don't bear out what you're saying. Like I said check out the Maru-Serral (2x) or Reynor-Maru games. Those are just the latest S-class examples.
The more the T is forced to change comp, so too can the zerg. And banelings are good man against everything but tanks.

Erf, disappointing result for Scarlett. PvP finals can be fun though.

You should learn from me
I usually just skip the first 10minutes of every single TvZ. Since it’s all the same boring start. You ain’t missing much unless it’s some sort of all in

This serie is a the perfect dessert for a day of SC2

congrats Neeb
|
Neeb's recent success seems to stem from mixing his play up a lot more. He was doing this somewhat in 2020 but that translated to cheesing a ridiculous number of games and tanking his winrate against weaker players. Now he seems to be better at build order selection and balancing his approach during games. Hopefully he stays motivated.
Disk also had a really good tournament, on the NA side of things. His pvp is really sharp.
|
Wait does Serral have to play the open bracket now? Holy moly he will get cheesed out
|
Are there replays released for this>?
|
Hmm I heard that Rogue and Trap were going to give up this tournament. Also, Maru may not present too unless he decides to play the open bracket.
I am bit thrilled after seeing Serral failed to qualify, and Clem succeeded on taking the throne instead. Now, with no Rogue and Trap in the upcoming tournament (and possibly Maru too), it definitely takes away enjoyment out of watching the game.
