45:51 look at mini map that MVP siege tank started marching to new battle field and 46:51 he showed up in the middle of the screen, without even been repaired, sieged up to protect the last mineral in the world. What a hero. Thank god he lives to the end of the war. He deserves a golden medal

yeah, Serral traded so badly into Clem at the end. I don't think the nerf is the worst thing since it was silly watching Serral micro 3 infestors to try and get fungal hits before every fight. But we now risk a situation where both sides don't want to engage with the other in the late game, like how Airtoss use to be.

@@nmgaro2156 Serral doesn't just copy solutions, he arguably perfects them, too. He may not be the most creative player, but he certainly has the cleanest execution. Which should be even further vindication for EriK, to see that the GOAT took his opener strategy, used it basically exclusively for the better part of a year, and found great success w/ it, so much that others are starting to try it out now, even though Serral has mostly stopped using it.

Unpopular opinion time, as a casual Terran player but avid replay/cast watcher, I have thought for roughly 2 years now that ghosts need to be nerfed strongly. Atm I think reducing their max range for Steady Targeting down to 11 or at least close to it is needed. Having 11 sight but being able to complete a snipe up to 13.5 range. I also think it should be reduced to 100dmg (+40 vs Psionic).

@@HandsomeGamerGuy The queens are strong, which is why they are also given obvious weaknesses. The problem with ghosts is that they don't really have a weakness. They are strong at everything and are not hard countered by anything really. Espeically against zerg, they pretty much counter all late-game units. An infestor nerf is yet another ghost buff since it's the only unit that can do anything against them and even then it requires a great deal of setup and luck.

6 years I have not played nor followed SC2. I watched this video and remembered why.
Infester nerf is entirely just. Specifically reducing the random factor to make the infester more consistent should definitely be done. Think back to when they nerfed lurker and widow mine burrow/unburrow times after the upgrade. 0.31 seconds was deemed too fast to react to so they made it ~0.5. This infester nerf should have already been done. It's entirely unreasonable that they could unburrow at a speed deemed impossible to react to a few years ago.

Lowko, what’s up with looking at upgrades while there’s multiple battles going on 😀

2:50 ''faux pas'' is 2 words meaning wrong/false step and yes you did use it correctly
Learning French with Lowko
Games like this make me think that Zerg needs a little extra in the ultra late-game. Maybe add a "hero" unit like the Mothership: the Leviathan, which effectively has the cost and attack stats of a Mothership, but within a radius of itself say 16-20 supply of Zerg units don't count towards the supply cost, effectively letting Zerg field slightly larger armies in the ultra-late game?

I find the biggest problem with late game zerg is you either attack ground or air, there's no units that do both. If you make too many broods and they make vikings, you lose. if you have too many corruptors, ghosts can snipe all your broods. That and ultras are useless.
