Ensnare + workers would work pretty well.
Or some mass Broodlings.
In any case, I kind of enjoy it when I see players do stuff like this. It's obviously not necessary, but that's pretty much the point; it's a bit of flair, a bit of cockiness, attitude that won't be liked by all, but that doesn't matter - you're winning and you know it. I like that sort of sure-fire confidence in players. (though I still cheer for Midas, go figure)

Pff. I think it's fine.
BTW Magma's been 'up and coming' since '06, I don't think that counts anymore.
UpMagic plays a lot, but loses a lot. he's sub 50% in every matchup.
eStro is quite bad, to be honest. Sangho's cool though.

Flash surely knew he had a winning advantage but taking such risk in an important game is just badass no matter how confident you are. Mad props! thats an idiotic thing to say.. its bm and an ass move.

Those scouts were really a tech choice. The game hadn't already been decided, but it was definitely Bisu showing Hwsain that he could beat him with any unit.

It was a tech choice. But I thought the game was in his bag.

eStro is quite bad, to be honest. Sangho's cool though. eStro would be a decent team if they would at least win 50% of their ace matches.
They have this nasty habit of going 2-3 a lot of the time.
90% of the time its cause of their 2v2 pulls off and either Up/Tester/Cool/Magma pulled a win out of their ass.
And then comes the ace match where they end up failing hard..so sad.
Y'know on a random thought, I wonder why shitty 1v1 players do so well in 2v2. It doesn't make sense to me..top 1v1 players have stronger mechanics and game insight, having top players play as one mighty force almost never works out..wtf.
I think Sangho would be a great player if he learned how to play late game better and had better nerves. He can certainly play with the best of them, but he knows how to drag but never to finish.

You can see the replay here, or click the spoiler for more info. <A name="cutnews"></A> + Show Spoiler [Protoss Sex] +The game began normally, 6P vs 9T on Zodiac. FakeSteve got his scout into the protoss base and had a peak around. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image006.jpg) Nothing seemed to be amiss, so he started his expansion and sent out his troops to see what he could do. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image011.jpg) Meanwhile, in a remote corner of the map, proxy tech went up and so did chances of victory. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image007.jpg) Not only was templar tech coming, but it would be airborne. A classic build, popularized by the late, great Fayth. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image008.jpg) But what is this? A probe so brazen to invade the terran base? ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image001.jpg) Back at the protoss base, it was an intense struggle as terran troops stormed the ramp. However, the invisible ninjas appeared just in time. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image010.jpg) With his concentration diverted, FakeSteve flashed back to his base, only to find a blue hue over his ramp. His troops had been cut off from home. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image002.jpg) With the benefit of the shuttle, Jumper]i[ lifted his templars into the Terran main to commence their slaughter. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image003.jpg) Despite his best efforts, Steve was unable to get his turrets up in time, and his troops paid the ultimate price. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image009.jpg) To add insult to injury, the sole remaining Terran production facility was reduced to a pylon prison. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image004.jpg) Which led to a gg. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Manifesto7/pimpplay/image005.jpg)
