Why would you play as some degenerate aliens or some non-sentient bugs? Human supremacy ftw.
Terran is the most technical and mechanically demanding race. It's also fun to watch is most cases. Naturally everyone wants to show off their skills as the coolest race and they think they're the next Boxer/Flash.
Hope that explains it newfriend.
>>
>>738647651
Of course it is
Light has zero chance. Soma v flash will be a 3-0 in favor of soma (because soma is a better player in the current year), only for soma to remember the script and throw the remaining games by playing like a complete fucking retard.

if that was the case it wouldn't be the most played.
its far and away the most braindead and easy race, why tryhard in a competitive mode by playing something that's harder.

No offense to soma but I feel like a different zerg player (e.g. Soulkey) would've been able to close this out sooner.

yeah the proper way to go about this is to get drunk and do world pvp while leveling on a private vanilla wow server
>>
>>738648979
private vanilla wow servers are unpleasant due to their low quality (mining nodes floating in the sky type stuff), european & chinese playerbase, and laggy servers
>>
Producers should really have a pick veto to avoid this scenario. Ample had no business fucking this tourney up with his group C pick. We could have had bisu here getting a revenge 4-3 instead of this soma free pass into the finals. Or possible bo7 bisu flash jd match

The reason people say that is because of the Science vessel + Marine + Medic comp which is only used in 1 matchup and is getting less popular by the day.
The units that makes Terran strong (Spider mine, Siege tank) require no micro and can win you the game while you're away from the keyboard.

Vulture micro only matters when there's 6 or fewer of them in use
Lategame they amount to meatshields while the tanks and goliaths clean up, just remember to plant your three free nukes on the map or inside your base to cockblock any drops
>>
>>738649192
There is reason flash is in the finals and didn't crumble against snow like other terrans would have. His stagger siege tank shots and control is the only reason he out matched snow in early tvp agression even though that was his specialty.

Range units are inherently more micro intensive than a moving zealots and zerglings around

Jaedong vs Light was a fun set. The other sets sucked.
Snow vs Flash looks close on paper because it's a 2-3, but Snow was playing like a retard the whole time and the games genuinely felt fixed.
Soma vs Hero and Tulbo vs Leta were both boring stomps.

last game was just unlucky play and soma probably resting on his laurels
not to worry though, the match fixing will happen when he plays versus flash
unironically though, I am giving serious thought to the idea that flash has been fixing for years, it's the scene's dirty little secret that nobody is going to risk breaking the news on, given how bad the savior scandal was and also that one sc2 guy, the difference is that instead of the fixer throwing games, he pays a bunch of others to throw for him

where was the ground presence on the map with groups of mm and tanks to delay as much as possible defilers reaching his base?
why fight outside your natural? he should be fighting defilers near the zergs base or at worst middle of the map.

how can leta win from here

>>738651784
the point of the strategy is to catch people unawares and inflict massive economic damage, especially punishing vs zergs who use the typical turtling strategy of hiding behind walls of sunkens
but like you said, it sucks lategame because it doesn't transition well. no matter what you try, you're going to be behind on upgrades, air upgrades are expensive and pretty dogshit, you lack the ball of vessels to counter mass defiler/lurkers/ultras, your bio will be 0/1 or 0/0 when a normal build would be at 2/2, you can't ever get a mass of tanks, wraiths are just incredibly flimsy and NEEDS to win by 10 minutes or else it becomes a liability

>>738651784
You know how zerg can swarm the opponent with mutas and snipe workers, destroy static defenses, and win straight-up fights against the opponent's army? Well wraiths are kinda like mutas except they die super easily and their attacks only hit one target. That's pretty strong.

no

>>738653046
wow those casters are so high energy, they have great chemistry.
why'd they get fired
>>
>>738653207
increasing the resolution can also be considered a balance change, as well as enabling better hotkeys, but only an insane person would cry about those
if they had taken the opportunity to reduce scout cost by -25/-25, give infesteds +25 more hp, devourers -50 minerals, and firebats +1x2 damage (or better, give ghosts +5 damage) then we'd have a much more interesting meta

it is kind of a monkey paw though, for instance diablo 2 was pretty good when they initially made remastered, but then we had mosaic into warlock and the new jewels and sunder charms, the powercreep is insane and it feels like they lost the vision of d2
