I can’t really blame the pro players for coming back to arguably the best video game. I myself often come back, and I’m only a platinum player 😂

@matts3425 13 күн бұрын

do you stick around plat with taking breaks? the reason i ask is because, i was top Diamond, took a solid few months break, came back and lost to a Gold 2. checked the profile and he/she was a legit gold 2. pretty humbling. i also hit 30 yrs old, so that could be what made me worse at videogames. got these old slow hands now.

@TrueThanny 13 күн бұрын

Because SC2 is not an all-races-are-the-same-with-different-skins game. Protoss have a mobile unit that can reinforce the army remotely. They also have shields that regenerate on their own. Terrans don't regenerate anything, and _require_ an auxiliary unit to heal. It's why the game is so difficult to balance correctly, but also why it's so much more interesting than games which have the same race copy/pasted, with just a couple units or structures that are different.

Such a phenomenal game by Trap, taking down Buyn, who you would consider taking down this match due to Trap's absence. I remember watching trap games a few years back thinking he's one of the best Protoss players, because me being a bit biased due being finnish, I remember Serral had hard time competing him at the time. I really enjoy Trap's courageous aggressiveness, it's the style I do think is what works better for the Protoss, even though the meta seems favouring more careful playstyle atm. Big applause for Trap's comeback, waiting to see what position he'll take in the future, looking good.

@loganwallace101 14 күн бұрын

I actually have a good reason to why Terran is never really struggling and that's because it has the simplest game mechanics out of the three and relies the most on the players own mechanical skill, so yeah even if a terran is nerfed the best players can still get great value from the unit.

I personally don't really put any credibility in Microsoft investing in StarCraft as an RTS sequel. Everyone who worked on SC2 and made it so technically polished left Blizzard. That's how frost giant exists in the first place. I would be thrilled to see more stuff made with the franchise, but I would rather it be a spin-off than a pile of crap dressed up as an RTS.

Byun must be one of the most overated Terrans currently by a mile. He has poor resutls in gsl hand haven't gotten a single first place since 2022. Meanwhile Clem has won 3 tournaments and Maru has won 7. Byun is not the best "Strategic player" he never plays for the late game and when he gets there he almost always loses because he has no strategy for it lol
