I'm not saying templars are better than reavers early game. But that's an academic assertion because of how high the tech is in of itself. Hence it is almost by definition impossible to apply to early game situations.

Flying BO was basically super-fast HTs off of two bases. Yet he pushed out after 6 gateways. Early battles simply don't apply to templars.

relatively early game, early mid game.
its obvious what he was talking about, dont quibble over terminology


But what he said has nothing to do with Stork vs Flying. And nothing to do with my original post. Which is why I don't get it.

That is, unless you're saying that Flying's tech path was in fact not correct and that he should've teched to reavers like Stork. That Stork won his first engagement because reavers > templars.

Go watch the vod baubo. The game speaks for itself. Theory crafting afterwards about reaver > HT or HT > reaver is just pointless. The game quite obviously showed reaver > ht in some situations IF the player does it right. Stork did it right. He took advantage of the window for harass and aggression when templars are not at their full effectiveness yet. He took advantage of the fact that templar tech is very expensive and lacks mobility for a window of time.

All of these things should be calculated into the HT versus Reaver tech discussion.

It's like saying fast hive play versus a lurker/hydra lair play is always hive >>> because if you have defilers then you must have a huge army too. coz nobody gets to defilers without all this other tech/eco etc etc. Do you see how this argument doesn't make much sense? THere are inherent pros/cons in taking specific tech paths. You're adding all kinds of contextual bs into it that are not necessarily guaranteed just because you got a certain tech. Everyone understands that in a late game 200/200 situation HTs are going to be better than reavers. But SC is not a game of black and white, there are plenty of conditional situations and rock-paper-scissors.

That guy was pointing out that normal reaver timings can be better than rushing to HT in certain situations. I see nothing wrong with that statement.

Well I feel that Reavers 'should' be better in PvZ since it can't really be 'sniped' by Mutalisk and it still does great damage and even splash as well. Plus if Z decided to do Dark Swarm, Reavers can still hit the target.

WE CHANGED OUR UNIFORMS. WTF. WE WERE THE TEAM THAT DIDN'T STUPIDLY CHANGE UNIFORMS ALL THE TIME. WE WERE THE TEAM WITH SELF-RESPECT EVEN IF WE DIDN'T DESERVE IT. BLUE AND ORANGE? WTF.

(sorry about the all caps, it was a text message to my friend and I didn't want to rewrite the whole thing so I just copied and pasted)

I thought storms could do damage despite Dark Swarm? And reavers can certainly be sniped by Mutalisks.

I just watched the VOD. Firebathero's expression was the highlight of the week.

Although it is kinda sad that FBH considers defeating a mediocre player a crowning achievement nowadays.
