nada got DTed out of WCG. boxer got DTed into tie breaker. xellos gged as soon as DT came in. kingdom gged with nal_ra's DT as the final straw.
now wtf with all the progamers these days? or is this DT thingy actually getting popular becuz its a really powerful strat?

I have said it before that there is no good reason not to use them, pro gamers are finally seeing that.

but its nothing new. it has been around since forever and progamers never seemed 2 have a problem with it b4. its just recently all of a sudden things turned gay.

well yes they are strong and a common use may change the style to substitute E-bay for academy first (as Froz did on WCG 2002) that mixed with fast expansion is a Rape for any Dt-lover

things fade in and out of popularity. And its not a new thing - just that we dont usually have toss players in ogn.

they are being, and have always been, commonly used.

I think that maybe it's a result that maybe progamers never expect DT b/c they don't think their opponent would use something that is so familiar and counterable. So it's like second-guessing themselves, they think that their opponent thinks that they know that their opponent knows that they can counter a DT....

i got his idea halfway into the sentence however when i tried to read it over and analyze it my head started to spin.
|

|
for some reason i never expect dt b/c i expect the p to realize that a dt is pretty ez to counter so i think they dont do it.. but then they do it and kill me ~~~~! b/c ididnt expect it!!

i think this is the best explanation

in PvT DTs give a fantastic advantage of being able to expand quickly to a main and defend it quite easily. It forces terran to prepare for a longer time. It's like a disease on wgtour right now, but I fall for it quite often, so I guess it's good and it is the terrans that should adapt. On the other hand, if you don't scout the toss build, it is your guess that often decides whether you win or lose.
On a side note, I don't understand how going academy instead of Ebay makes a good counter for DT. Scan depletes quite quickly and often you need to SEE them fast enough sometimes in order to stop them before they do a lot of damage. Scans deplete, and sending dts in groups, dodging scans will soon catch terran off guard and if no turrets --> gg. Even with them, 4 dt drop is such a bitch when terran fast exps... maybe I'm just talking newbie-talk...
