"terran's would rather get a job at costco where they can scan repeatedly than get a raven" lmao

[@henryviiifake8244]

Watching how fast Clem and Reynor are, and how much more consistent they've both become... I'm even more bewildered as to how Serral has a decent winning record against _both_ of them. 💀

[@Wwillswords]

Serral just always seems to make the perfect move. Which is insane

[@thedeadbaby]

i'm thinking serral is more able to see the long term strategy than clem or reynor. Clem relies on balance/widow mine abuse and micro for most of his games. After his 3 base marine/mine/medivac push, he doesn't really keep a longer term strategy. Just expo and keep attacking. Reynor is solid overall but still lacks long term strategy. Serral seems to know where the weaknesses of the opponent are in late game and exploits them.

[@lefthanded0440]

He is innovative and takes map control and the way Clem uses mines, he burrows banes and keeps you on your back foot. Clem magically figured out this year that constant multi pronged pressure and denying economy while keeping your opponent guessing is the key. Hes the new macro and micro Jackson. Serral is the Zerg version. I’d love to see Clem play Zerg. Those units, my god. He’d murder Serral if he got a good year as Zerg only

[@lefthanded0440]

@@thedeadbabynot true as evidenced by the iron bank and constant macro in all 3 games, but namely the final one. He’s serral as a Terran. He just sweeped arguably the best in the world behind Serral and the man who beat him at Katowicza (spelling I know) a year ago or so. Imagine Clem switching to Zerg. My god

[@Starfang]

Man those widow mines hits on the first game really were something else

I know you. I used to watch you

[@TheNerdForAllSeasons]

Felt like every hit was like 8 or 10 kills.

[@ElysaraCh]

in the fight around 50:00 what Clem was actually doing with the Command Centers was creating chokepoints to force the Zerg army through so that Reynor couldn't use the Ultralisks for anything meaningful. Brilliant.

[@Broockle]

They created lots of space to snipe the ultras. Reynor understandably didn't even want to commit them in there.

[@rickmedinac]

Thanks for the cast. I find your comments hilarious and unique, making a difference vs. other casters. Excellent job. Here is an idea for you: specific names for groups of units expanding on common knowledge. From a platoon of marines and a fleet of phoenixes, we could have an HOA of queens, a conclave of lurkers, a gang of reapers, a cell of dark templars and so on. I hope you find it useful!

Clem relentless style of play makes it the most fun matches. Perfecting the Bomber infinite marine push.

[@benismann]

idk it just makes them boring after the first 5 minutes when something can actually happen. Afterwards it's just clem slowly grinding through whoever is opposing him and not at any point they have a chance to come back.

[@TheNerdForAllSeasons]

@@medejae Zerg players and crying about balance name a more iconic duo You're the least skilled of all 3 races by far, if Terran or Toss ever get anything that stops you from F2 + A move you throw tantrums until it gets nerfed. The only Zerg players with an IQ above 85 are Serral, Rogue and NesTea. Dark doesn't count he's a lunatic.

[@Broockle]

wow let's ignore that jerk 😆 Must have had too much coolaid. Clem is incredibly skilled and it's a pleasure to see him play. He really makes Terran look OP. At their level prbly even tiny changes could shift the balances so you gotta be really careful what you would propose change. Personally I'd love giving Infestors some water balloons, they have got to be the least user friendly unit in the game.

[@OzixiThrill]

@@TheNerdForAllSeasons Come now... Do you seriously expect Zerg players to tolerate not having overwhelming and broken advantages before calling the game fair? They're so used to the silver spoon that anything else feels like torture to them.

Or Ultras, or Broodlords, or anything other than suiciding my units and hoping the splash damage saves the day. Yet the key suiciding unit has been repeatedly nerfed until Zerg feels like throwing expensive water balloons at the enemy.

[@francisgaliegue6645]

I "love" the comments from either side (terran or zerg) arguing that either this or that is broken... And I am 100% sure (minus epsilon) that all such commenters are light years away from having even 10% of the skills of these two. I just enjoy watching the games, and getting insights from insightful commentary. I don't even dream of replicating what those two are doing, I'm happy enough that I can complete all four campaigns of the base game... In normal difficulty.

[@LegendaryRiot]

and this is why I say ghost needs it's auto attack massively nerfed. The fact a terran can mass mostly ghost and just run the field against a zerg goes to prove that. Zerglings and banlings should be able to shut ghosts down if there's not enough standard bio mixed in.

Not nerf, remove. This unit in broken, literally a cheat.

[@aaabatteries9948]

if they are going to nerf the gohst they have to buff something otherwise Terran can't compete in the late game.

[@verdibyrd]

i think the most ridiculous thing about ghosts is how tanky they are, it takes 5 banes aka 375 resources to kill a ghost and zerg almost always have to sacrifice an expensive infestor too, and have overseers running into their death, if ghost had 15%~ less hp it would be a more fair unit

[@KenuDRoger]

@aaabatteries9948 no need to nerf it but maybe add its supply amount therefore we wouldn't worry about mass ghost

[@OnigoroshiZero]

Keep balancing the game around the GOAT, and this is what you get, a race broken beyond all measure that no one except the GOAT can beat.

This is so frustrating to watch. Wth is a zerg to do? For every banelig I make, another relative sue.

[@Tib120497]

As much as i enjoy watching zerg matchups (from being a zerg main back in 2014 when i stopped playing ladder), i would love some more ZvZ or PvT matchups, as i am really curious how the meta looks there. Also weird to see how much the tides shifted, with Zerg going from 6/8 pool and early agression, to them always taking the defensive role by spamming queens and defending their Area. I guess by now wall offs simply kill all early game agression? They seem to lack really any units to do any pressure early (with the queen being like the only, al be it a pure defensive, option without any long time upgrades), zergling is fine and all, but pre speed a single reaper can basically box the zerg in their base solo.

[@hivetech4903]

They still do very aggressive builds on occasion, proxy hatch is viable at pro level, as are the occasional ling/roach/ravager rush or baneling bust. ZvZ is constant aggression. The meta is much more varied & interesting now for Zerg.

[@benismann]

PvT is just sad, which is why it's not being casted as much here ig.

[@Redhitcz]

I never understand, why every aoe damage of terran and protos like tanks, disruptors ect. damage friendly targets, but zergs aoe of baillings parasitics bombs or fungus never harm friendly target

[@georgesanders5380]

Zerglings are a cheap unit you can have sit next to a watchtower, which is a terrain feature in some sc2 maps that gives a ton of vision if you have a unit by it. F2 is the default hotkey for select all army, so if you press that button and give any command, your separated zergling you left by the watchtower to provide vision will get dragged away and you lose the vision bonus.
