it doesnt seem that useful. as far as i can tell the 2 devourers did absolutely nothing v flash, and killed a rax v sharp
is there some hidden genius that i'm missing Yeah, it seems scourge make devourers kind of redundant. Still entertaining to see rare units come out though. If you get scourge though terran can snipe them/dodge them with wraiths which you can't do as easily vs devourers. Or at least thats how I see it.

Killer looked fantastic in the games I saw. Couldn't watch the last - was cooking.
QUICK RUNDOWN.

Man From not making the Round of 24 to getting a lucky break and making the finals. Awesome work Killer, amazing stuff.
Love seeing Ultras man. Much more competitive set of games this time round. Can't wait for the next batch of games.

Killer come out from one of the hardest groups alive. Post KeSPA champ is back to dominate.

Buddy, every one of us owes you a drink now. And I don't even want to think about the brackets.

it...preempts wraiths? preempting wraiths is a good enough reason. Basically means terran has to spend one irradiate for each guardian. Seems like scourge are more cost-effective for sniping both vessels and wraiths but I guess devourers are kind of tanky against marines.

Sure, scourges are awesome if you can get them to connect. That's pretty hard vs wraith that are back uped by marines tho.

What did he do exactly ? Is it a variation of 3 Hatch Muta or does the variation start before this point ?

Holy crap that game. I did not expect Killer to play this well.

yeah scourge are more cost effective but like, at least for me, when I have guardians over the natural of terran, I tend to not really look there anymore. I just have them spread out on hold position, so terran can't mine, and if he irradiates me, then so be it - it's supposed to hit before he has a lot of irradiate. But then if say, I have 4 scourge there to kill 2 wraiths, he comes in with a wraith, shoots once, my scourge comes flying, he moves wraith back to marines, all my scourge die, and then his wraith gets to shoot at my guardians until I'm able to bring more scourge there. That might well take so long that two of my guardians die against the lone wraith in the mean time. Scourge basically take too much active managing to be great combined with these guardians, guardians that do a lot of economic damage without requiring any attention, which is part of why they are so good. With devourers, you can just have them next to the guardians and then when you get the under attack message, even if the wraith was flying back towards the natural, you can pull them back before they die because they are so tanky.

they don't decloak but reveal them like ensnare if their spores stay the wraith
