Nostalgia Pt 2:

With Kang Min's recent announcement of his comeback, I figured it's time to soak in some Kang Min glory.

Today, I present quite possibly the best play ever in Starcraft History. The match pitted GooDFrienD against Nal_rA on Parallel Lines (Island Map). As the game progresses, GooDFrienD scouts rA's Arbiter tech and hastily begins to amass troops to defend against any incoming recalls. With quite a few goliaths and turrets scattered all over the perimeter of his base, GooDFrienD looked to be in a great spot against any recall attempts.

That is until rA busted out his hallucinated Arbiter fleet. Two arbiters soon became ten
[image loading]
and rA would land two massive recalls in the heart of GooDFrienD's base even against all that Goliath/Turret D.
[image loading]


Truly the mind of a Dreamer.

And as always, the full clip of rA's demolition of GooDFrienD so you can enjoy it countless times: [url blocked]

God Bless

I love Kang Min, but I never realized what was so amazing about that recall, you hardly even need hallucination to get through a bazillion turrets to recall.

because everyone on the map then used to go carriers, so the opponent massed air defense, arbiters might have alot of hp but a "bazillion" turrets still kill them fast.

not seeing whats amazing about it makes me lol

I agree, this is an awesome game, and is really entertaining to watch, but what was so revolutionary and visionary about using 'the other' high-templar spell. Yes, it is barley ever used, so?

Nal_Ra had perfect execution in this game, but would have been completely shut down by one EMP
(no mana and Hallucinated Arbs disappear = fail-recall) ...

It is a nice move to go land-army -> recall on a carrier map, but it was scouted and not pre-empted enough (though GoodFriend did put up a good fight).
