Tastosis and SC2 is the best combination. Thank you AfreecaTV for giving me the best content on the internet.

[@durag6196]

Tastosis is overhyped. They only cast because they have a monopoly on korean sc2

That opening shot of the 4 players, in robes, looks hilarious. Especially Dark. He looks like a priest, or some type of religious figure.

[@filipbrannstrom31]

He looks to be high class. Fitting as he has seen himself as better than other players for a long time. Classic is there as a model, showing the world the face of Protoss. The fitness guy Dream is in a functional robe. DRG has been the Final Boss. He has experienced highs and lows. Here we can see that he is the most comfortable of them all. I like the photos of this group.

[@blizzfreak245]

Can anyone tell me how DRG scouted that Dream had pulled his SCV's in that first game? The overlord is too far from the ramp to spot this, he sees a CC going up and literally as soon as the scvs are pulled he throws down 5 spines????

[@sungoh78]

he saw the triple barracks had not lifted and saw the number of marines and knew it was an all in at that point in the game. he knew the cc going up was a mind trick.

[@EdwardBiton]

Yup, I did try to replay it just to make sure. He saw the 3 barracks did not return to base. And saw marines still popping. After which, he did try to confirm if it is all in moving the overload to verify. Otherwist he has a window to cancel the spines.

[@ddenozor]

As others pointed out,he suspected that was the case,and moved his overlord behind Dream's mineral line to scout. But he didn't wait for the scout to prepare. He was certain of it coming. Even commentators point out it is really hard to bounce back from a botched triple barraCks oppening and DRG held it reeaaally well,so only sensible option was going all in and DRG knew that.

[@jameselias8955]

Honestly, all these answers are wrong :P The overlord behind Dreams main flew in and saw no SCVs mining, hence they must be headed across map.

[@Daniel-yy3ty]

@@jameselias8955 except spine 2 and 3 were already building(4:23) before the overlord even started moving(4:30) or the SCVs even left the base (4:25), and I'm not sure if he could see the mineral line when he put down spine 4 also keep in mind that drones don't teleport to the build location, so he decided he needed 2 spines even before then next time you go "everyone's wrong" double check a little... spine 4 was late for the attack, if 2 and 3 had the same timing DRG could have lost

Re: the reverse-alien-invasion storyline, there was a short story I read years ago about these people with spaceship technology, but muskets, oil lamps and generally outdated military technology and they tried to invade modern-day Earth. Their invasion got completely dumpstered, and then freaked out because they just gave us spaceship technology. Can't remember what it was called, but I really liked that twist on the classic alien invasion storyline.

Zerg wins the world championship for the 6th time in a row. Conclusion : Protoss is OP !!!

[@stevepeterson4154]

they nerf the queen but decide to skip over the unit that needs the biggest nerf............the zergling.

[@noobzerg1990]

@@stevepeterson4154 Whats so op about the zergling? Why do no pro players complain about lings? Are you just a plat terran who is complaining for no reason? Yea I thought so

[@noobzerg1990]

Ima copy paste a comment from someone else. The finals of GSL Code S last year had 2 protoss, 2 zerg, 2 terran. Super Tournament finals were 4 protoss, a zerg and a terran. The one Super Tournament this year was a PvZ. If you want to talk about outside of Korea... Serral, Reynor and Clem are stronger players than MaxPax. The Dreamhack EU tournaments are literally all some combination of Serral/Clem/Reynor. Who would you pick to be more likely to beat a Maru, Reynor or Showtime? There have been 6 Dreamhack NA tournaments from 2020 until now. All of them have been some combination of Neeb, Scarlett and Astrea. 8/4/0 in terms of protoss/zerg/terran. I'm glad Trap's 5 premier tournament wins in 2021 don't exist to you. GSL itself has had three finals from the start of 2020 until now that were TvZ or ZvZ. That's across 12 tournaments. You are just wrong. The "meaningless" patch also changed games today. Dark was always going to crush through the group. Does DRG advance without Dream deciding to cheese? Without Classic deciding to let DRG go up to 6 bases? Classic going for a macro opener centered around the nerfed unit and losing seems to show the balance patch did something.

[@stevepeterson4154]

@@noobzerg1990 I have no stake in which race wins.....I don't like one race better than the other I play random.....and Im not a pro. But watching every major tournament it's more than evident Terran especially struggles vs mass ling in mid to late game. Thats a tier 1 unit mind you. Tanks and mines barely do anything vs mass lings. They are too cheap and larva is readily available late game. 3/3 Cracklings with banes basically wipes anything on the ground vs T. Yeah ok....

[@ParleLeVu]

@@noobzerg1990 I agree with the Terran here. As a Protoss, the speedling needs a nerf. You Zergs get away with 0 IQ early game, easily going up to 3 bases unpunished every time. You need to be able to think and do something to get a mining third that's safe. There needs to be better ways than do or die all-ins to put early pressure on a Zerg. And I'm not talking top 20 GM, I'm talking every league up to Master 2. The Zergling does too much and forces walls every game. THAT is boring. For everyone. Zerg is expanding on the map hammering some poor Terran or Protoss who has to turtle up to survive, then the Zerg sees his bread and butter armies evaporate to better T/P armies, which is boring for the Zerg (and frustrating when losing after throwing 200/200 armies at a 150/200 army that never dies). Zergs have become complacent with easy scouting, easy map control, easy expansions because of the speedling. Put Zergling speed at lair tech and nerf it 0,30 speed and much is done. Also simply remove the lurker from the game (or at least nerf the range to max 7 with the upgrade). Make hatcheries 350 minerals. Then I think Zerg is balanced.

I asked my parents who are in their 60's how they pronounce l-a-i-r. And its the same as I believe as I have been raised. Words like gray/grey have alternate spellings, but are there alternate pronounciations independent of region? No I wont buy that.
