If TIME backs up and defends his bases he won’t take any damage. Maybe he can clear the creep because it’s not as far away but Zerg still gets their lategame.
You know what adds insult to injury?
Ultralisk is the only unit immune to neural parasite.

Hilarious how zergs defend a liberator, bc and tank push hitting 3 different locations at once, but terrans can’t handle 1 overlord. Scvs are fast enough to outrun it so you just have to pull scvs. Incredibly lousy play by terrans at blizzcon.
I really really hate that TIME consistently feels like he has to push out on creep and take bad fights.
Even the biggest terran/toss apologist has to admit, that serral is just unstoppable godlike.
No matter if zerg is op or not - serral is on a whole different lvl skillwise. He makes winning that group of death look easy…
The idea is that you want to force him to make banelings and that delays his tech and upgrades, but you have to be good at stutter step and focus fire. If he can’t get ultras in time for your 3/3 timing, he dies. That is, unless your name is time and you donate your 3/3 for free to a counter attack. Put 1 thor in the main base and time wins that game. This is why you don’t F2 your whole army.
I said it before, it just feels wrong. I don’t feel this way with Dark or Rogue.
The thing is, i could even accept it, if you say that dark/rogue dont always deserve to win. Watching serral is ALWAYS such an experience. Its the one thing, where everyone has to admit, that serral is the greatest player we have ever had.

The idea that marine medics counter ling/bane/muta is laughable. They don’t.

bio medivac destroys ling/bane/muta
the problem is that time massed tanks instead of widow mine and/or liberator
Like I said, I don’t know how to explain it. Maybe his skill highlights how Zerg is abusive and it rubs me the wrong way. Maybe the fact that a foreigner suddenly becomes the best player in the world and that he does it with a race I’ve been calling mechanically and strategically basic since HotS is why. Even his personality gets on my nerves.
MMM absolutely does counter ling bane. It did in HotS and that was before the thor, mine buffs. The double medivac double mine push used to kill a lot of top zergs before the terran even took a third base. Look up Gumiho vs Byul in Code S for an example.
You can say Zerg OP but nobody is dominating like Serral. All the other matches we’re closer.
It didn’t counter mutalisks though. Back in HotS all you had to do was get to 30 mutas and you auto won from there.
Uh, no, that’s not true. Zergs that over committed to mutas would have a delayed Hive timing and they would die to a 3-3 push from the terran. You would make 12 mutas then fire up an infestation pit. That was standard zerg.
I thought you were meant to be GM with Zerg back in HotS? The prevalent style at the time was to not go for hive and instead focus on increasing your drone count to ~88 then focus on increasing your muta count. Zerg would take bad trades but be okay due to their stronger economy.

Well, serral was not “suddenly” the best foreigner. It took him 2-3 years to achieve that status. Still a short time, but this kid is literally made for sc2. Theres simply noone i could imagine, that comes close to his decission making, gamesense and mechanics. The fact that zerg looks even more op with him underlines this. Even if zerg is op. Noone is able to use zerg in such a perfect way like he does.
And tbh, who shall stop him now at blizzcon? Who else achieves such a dominance in his games… serral WILL win the blizzcon again.
No, as stated, the zerg cannot compete with 2/2 ling bane and 2/0 mutas vs 3/3 biomine. You had to go for broods and use the mutas to stall.
Another Zerg, just like when Reynor beat Serral in WCS.
Did you just all in to GM?
