The problem of Toss is that it is a very strong race at mid-pro level but when you reach the level of these monsters, the other race are better if you have the APM required. The skill cap for terran is high but the Maru/Clem of this world are so good that they can unleash the full potential of the race which almost no one can. Pretty sur if you let an AI play with no APM limit, terran is the strongest race... but at a human level...it is the hardest race.

Clem is now the best all around Terran player of all time surpassing Byun and Maru. His game play is so well rounded, whether it be multi prong attacks, defensive styles, hyper aggressive , multi prong harassments while macroing up behind, and you name it.

@tigera6 5 ай бұрын

He is probably playing the best Terran right at the moment, yes. But hes not YET best of all time, because Byun won a world championship and Maru won 7 GSL along with other big tournaments as well. But Clem will have a chance to surpass both of them if he can keep this up for sure.

😂 Solar and Maru are ALREADY Serral killers; they've both done it three times or more. The best series I've ever seen is still Dreamhack Winter 2021, Maru 4 - 2 Serral. You can't pretend that just because Clem won his first [ever] Premier tournament best of 7 against Serral, that this means he's the first/only/preeminent player to do it. He's good, sure, but a few have come before...

@apeist 5 ай бұрын

Zerg have been seeing success with ultras more recently, probably due to a combo of the snipe damage nerf, smaller model size, and slightly cheaper cost. Plus, T hasn't had as much practice playing against ultras in the past, although that seems to be changing. The meta will probably shift again before Katowice arrives. I wonder if part of the solution will be adding in a sprinkle of broods?

I'm uncertain whether players can hear the casters, but it seems they might unintentionally provide one player with more information. For example, during this game, some crucial moments were exposed: At 37:10, after Clem's scan missed, the casters revealed that Serral had a Lurker Den and a Hydra Den. At 40:15, they disclosed information about a doom drop. At 1:02:32, they give away an infestor. Do you think imposing a mandatory delay on casters, similar to the delay used by streamers, would be a solution to avoid giving an advantage to their favored player?

@maximemalherbe4325 5 ай бұрын

Anticipation. They are high level players and they regularly confront each other. And I'm sure you can find plenty of examples where players don't react to information given by casters.

I like that Zerg needs to hit fungal growths on ghosts to win at that stage of the game since ghosts counter all of Zerg late game units and fungals do no damage and last 1 second and are projectiles that can be dodged (unlike EMPs) and infestors are fat and slow and rely on being undetected in the backline for a suicide attack with this ability that is super hard to land and even if it lands does fuck all because terran just picks up into medivacs before banes can hit. Just wonderful experience for Z vs T in 2023
