Combat ex is a terran player. he was using off race.

or he would have easily won hands down.

gj for using offrace vs real race imo


I heard his keyboard was broken. He was actually mouse onlying the entire series.


playing with one hand
protein shake in the other

i heard he playing with just his nose.

Combat-ex i thought was going to be worse than what he was. But his macro seemed pretty good and pulled off some decent storms in the standard games, not too bad. The 4gate proxy was weird could have worked though, build order loss really. Unfortunate its not bo7 cause it feels inconclusive to me.

If it was a bo7 combat ex would just have cheesed and lost more games. He didn't feel confident in his standard play, otherwise he would have played standard.


its funny how he won the one time he went standard, lol.

did you watch game 1 at all?


so proxy pylon trying to kill hatch and double obs is standard to you? hahaha

making stupid decisions doesnt mean he didnt go standard


Oh but it does. Standard means you stick to a plan and play the BO like a machine.

I don't want to defend combatex, but if you think game 1 was standard...

What wasn't standard? He only wasted 100mins on the failed cannon rush, if you think that's enough to change the tide of a match on this level you are an idiot.

If you decide to cheese in 2/5 games in a series you lose all right to claim you would have won if you played standard.

So all it takes to turn a standard build into a non-standard build is cancelling a proxy pylon and accidentally doubling up on another building?

How about his 40 cannons? If he didn't do the other things I mentioned would it still be non-standard because he got so many?


His 40 cannons weren't standard either, I forgot them thanks. :p

There is a difference between "non standard" and bad play. Otherwise I could just say that I'm a "non standard" player, instead of simply saying I'm a bad player.

Combat-ex has show that 'his' standard is trying to kill expansions with cannons. That might work in games against the C- people he plays on Iccup, but not someone who is ACTUALLY B-. He tried it twice...

He built 12 gateways because he was dumb, not because he wanted to be cheesy and not play standard lol.

I know, I just don't want people saying 12gate off 2 Nexus, 40 cannons, double observatory standard play

It's non standard and bad play

Missed the point of my post. SuperArc said that Combat-ex won the only time he went standard, then said that double obs wasn't standard but is 12 gateways off 2 bases is.

Thats what i think...

standard =/= cheese

so if you arent cheesing you are playing standard. thus combatex was playing standard but badly.

And the reason he had to do this was because he got crushed in the midgame, and had to make that many gates just to get out of his base.
