      That also happened in Planetside 2, they incorporated the classic interstellar adventure music from the 80s movies into the game.
      Currently we are listening to symphonic music similar to the theme of Star War, Robot Cop, Starshiptrooper in PS2.

      @@honk2727 I saw an online clem vs serral on golden wall during a serral stream a few years ago, so entire game from serral's POV, that was just as intense. Serral was owning everyone on the stream and was not being serious, just chatting to stream. Then the second he saw Clem queue up he got super serious. Serral has crazy POV cam also so was some of the best SC2 I've seen. That was when mines had super fast burrow also. Like really fast. So just lots of cool micro battles, mines moving around at comical speeds with clems insane apm, with liberators and bio running in and out of the fog of war, and serral inducing elipsy with his cam movements, on one of the most epic maps ever made. Can't say it's better from a non POV perspective tho. But POV games are unique / awesome, since you don't see them as often.
      But yeah game 3 was epic. Perhaps some of the most perfect TvZ (from both players) I've ever seen.

      Snipe damage was also nerfed from 170 to 130, But like the other „nerfs“ it does Not affect the Mass ghost lategame strat, because the only interactions that Are affected Are Ghost-Roach (they don’t get oneshotted like before. Good Luck on roaches in lategame) and Ghost-Ultra (requires 4 instead of 3 snipes now). Ghost-Viper is unaffected because they still Deal 170 damage to spellcasters. Snipe leash Range is still to high, Ghosts do Not Even lose the 50(!) energy, of the snipe doesnt Hit. The only difference this makes is that out of 100 snipes only 90 instead of 100 Hit. It does Not have an impact on the Game.
      And regarding the Emp „nerf“: you do 2 instead of 1 Emp. Why isnt it Single Target damage ? Like Feedback? It is simply dumb that they can nullify zerg and protoss spellcasters with one Click which Are then dead supply in your Army. Ghosts Are Not Even dead supply when they got emp‘d because they still have an incredible Auto attack.

      @@grandeura3001 Vipers for the air. For mine, you can't a-move your army, but send in single zerglings in front of your main army to bait widow mines. You should never fight into a tank or lib zone unless you plan to destroy them all, and dont' use mass roaches against tanks. Ghost are really strong and don't have any easy counter, but they are very time consuming and expensive for the Terran to make. Ghost are one of their end game units, so too many dead ghost will make Terran lose the game. Infestors Fungal ability is really good if it lands, and you have other units that can attack.
      Clems army was really weak against vipers, but neither dark or serral made enough of them. IMHO Zerg is used to abusing the strength of Banelings & Roaches because they trade really good with good micro. But both of these are tier 2 units, they're not suppose to be that strong.
