      It’s probably more useful to deny an upgrade or a key unit in the early to early-midgame, but building any static defense basically renders it useless. Still cool too see an intentional application of the ability to prevent immortal production in the second game.

      Every time I see him play he is adding another dimension to the game. Few players use Overlord abilities because they make such a minor difference, but that minor difference is enough for Serral to spend APM on it…and it makes the games look effortless.

    This first game reminds me of a pretty hilarious TvT Serral played against Reynor (Reynor challenged him to try Terran in the first game of the match) in a Basilisk event, where he played a weird Medivac-Tank-Viking mech and used them like a Dropalord-Ravager-Corruptor combo. He was visibly amused and Reynor had no idea what to do playing regular bio and lost the game. They switched to Zerg for the rest of the match, but Reynor still lost. 3-0.

But vipers are fast air units that pay for themselves with a single yoink against lategame airtoss and can refill its mana quickly. There is no question that feedback and especially psi-storm are powerful spells, but the caster is too clunky to favor a good trade in comparison to the "free kill guarantee" that a viper would bring against tempests/carrier/mothership.
