Well, that kind of micro battle is basically a rock-paper-scissors game of predicting the opponent's targeting - Reaver or Shuttle.
Stork got it wrong and picked up the Reaver when he should have left it alone. Then when he went to drop it, that was the delay needed for Horang to snipe the Shuttle.
He probably should have backed both off after the first Scarab launched, as it was obvious his Reaver didn't have any more ready. Keeping his Shuttle + Reaver in the combat area was taking away from his Goon micro, which he really should've been focusing on.

sending 2 toss's (none being stork) against hydra was the error here, go practice to msl and osl stork, u're still awesome :>

Finally, a win again... I was a little worried about CJ in the winners league and still am, but there is a chance that they will do well again.
Winners league just isn´t to good for well balanced teams without a real "star-player" and as long as Leta can´t recover, there isn´t a real solid player except for Hydra...

Guess you're called cheesy toss for a reason It's funny because Stork himself did the exactly same build several days ago.
Yep. Stork beat Tyson by going 4 gate.

Why couldn't Stork scout it? Did H2 kill off the scouting probe and then build 2 more gates?

Yep.
His goon led the scouting probe behind the min line where his zealot was blocking.

Fuck, I had no idea 4 gate was this nasty. What did Stork do wrong this game? He wasn't even going greedy, just standard 2 gate reaver.
Yeah, I had no idea as well. That was a never-ending stream of dragoons. Even perfect shuttle micro would have been unable to defend against that.
Stork isn't to blame for this loss however. It was Hydra's awesome skill that won it for Hite. Grats for getting your first SWL win, Entusmen.

yeh... actually from 1 gate to 4 gate so 3 more gate
|
I think going reaver first meant Stork had a bit of a decent chance, the builds 4 gate absolutely crushes are standard 1gate obs or 2 gate obs (or non-DT FE I guess, do people do that?).
But yeah, shuttle went down, and if that happens he can't abuse its range very well. Horang2 did good.

So, basically that was a perfectly executed 4gate. gg Stork.

well it's a good thing we've got you guys in here to help us counter the wave of Horang2 anti-fans...

I expected a good long macro PvP since it's Horang2. Poor Stork.

It´s always that way. If Stork would have gone for that strategy and won with it, he would be a genius. If he gets beaten by it, it´s cheese and nooby...

No. He didn't forget to micro it, the problem is that H2 hit great timing, entering Stork's main with 5+ goons right when reaver popped, effectively countering it as shuttle snipe is easy when you don't have anything blocking your way to it.
Yeah I agree with you. IMO you can't really micro slow shuttles vs a large amount of dragoons while having next to none yourself. There really is no way you can stop the shuttle snipe (besides not using the shuttle).

How is Horang2 so good at PvP and so fail at everything else? O_o

not at all. Stork did that strategy, and didn't get called a genius. Horang2 has done it and most comments have complimented his control or just noted Stork's lack of reaver control...

Yes, you´re actually right. I didn´t mean to say everybody says it that way, I just spoke to the people that did (and there were people who did).
And that most other comments were in good manners shows good sportsmanship from the Khan fans, so I apologize, the tone of the first post was not exactly right.
