    To be honest, Slush is a lot better than LZ as well.

    And ye olde bio+tanks might be able to handle that as long as you take baneling hits with marauders? Might not work though, dunno. I play toss, so got a whole another slew of problems.

    Man, zerg realyl feels like the strongest race now, at least at the top level.

    day9 earlier said that now that zergs at getting better at the game they are starting to outpace some of the terran and protoss

    somewhat inclined to agree

    although i think a large thing is people going hatch first a loooooot of the time

    but that's just me theorying

    rooting for slush because i'd rather see something out of Idra ZvZ instead of Idra 3-0'ing HuK effortlessly


    edit: oh I thought slush would be fighting huk now

    whoever wins the finals gets 1k guarantee

    but then they get to play idra to see if they also win one of those msi laptops that are being advertised on the stream

    I think if you're gonna go bio in TvZ you need more medivacs, like, medic ratios, 1 per every 3 or so marines/marauders.

    I think the game started and the metagame was a lot of one base all in which raped zergs

    then as it moved to a more macro metagame zergs gained a bit of an advantage, and then also couple that with zerg players getting better and a series of nerfs and you have where we are at now

    there's a great balance though, it's apparent in the gsl tvz games. hitting early and hard and also being able to macro, punishing for the FE from zerg even in a small way. Fauxer is very good at it. I believe Boxer is too though he wasn't strong in his blizzcon match. you just can't harass quite as easily, but you still absolutely need to.

    this is all my impression of things and could be dead wrong.

    huk is in the finals


    honestly no matter who wins it's gonna be a great match vs. IdrA. I'd like to see idra put to it in a zvz BUT I'd also like to see him play huk. since idra has disrespected huk and huk knows it. granted his views could have changed since then but I'll enjoy it from the grudge match angle :D

    Whenever I play TvZ i want to make PFs at my natural, their army composition feels very strong.
    But I agree, the game feels more balanced now.

    it has to be a failure of the terran if they kill that many probes and the zerg is able to replenish them very quickly AND have enough of an army to cause damage/defend

    right?

    edit - okay things seems to be making sense now. the terran has to have an advantage I just didn't see it.
