There has been a slow shift in metagame for the TvZ match up. Perhaps, a more accurate way to express it is that Terran is trying to break the current metagame.

The new season has kicked off with Proleague and a proposed balance test map. The production of Proleague looks very promising, while the proposed balance test map seems to move in the right direction. I will give my thoughts on the proposed changes.

I have been thinking a lot about Reaper opening in TvZ recently. It is a more common opening than 14CC in the current metagame. Players seem to have different preference for the follow up build order after a Reaper opening. I will discuss some of the variations.
It has been a week since the release of the new patch. I have played and watched some games. Here is what I expect.
Hellions and Banshees were the key early game units in TvZ for a long period of time in Wings of Liberty, but this composition was almost inexistent in Heart of the Swarm. Interestingly, there has been a resurgence of Banshee openings in TvZ for the past two to three weeks.
