Very interesting analysis and a good read, thank you!~ I think Skull Desert in particular will produce some really interesting games this season
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Truly super analysis, absolutely love this kind of content. Thanks for the great writing, hope to see more like this in the future if possible.
Beauty is not the goal of competitive sports, but high-level sports are a prime venue for the expression of human beauty. The relation is roughly that of courage to war.

Can someone explain what the point of the eggs on the edge of the front natural expansions on Crossing Fields is?
Don’t know how to feel alive—been that way for a while—so I don’t know the pain of living.

no protoss wants to expand away from terran.... terran wants to expand towards protoss to make the pushing distance smaller / apply pressure...

its a complete joke 6 expands in center all u have to do is controll center protosss cant even get outside of the natural anymore

asl thats a sample size of what ?? 10 games?? tvp less ??

look just admit you misjudged the map its okay..

(just to clearify any korean pro can tell you this any terran user will say the same thing its terran heaven tvp.)

`any race getting above 4 bases is rare '' etc if you want my opinion i feel like you are theorycrafting its not how the map plays out on stream..the mechanics of the map play out way different than you describe and thats totally fine since its hard to predict how it will be played out exactly before the map is used often.

or tune into flash stream or any pro terran streamer slaying other streamer tosses on goldrush with win ration above 85% on goldrush.

see how much opportunities Terran has on the map to comeback or expo to the only expos that are relatively safe to take for protoss are main natural and upcliff / semi island expos
