The last time reach beat oov on tv (as far as i know) is when he play aggressively right from the start, harassed oov with reaver and wiped out his men as they tried to secure a foot hold outside his base. Reach has to play like July and take control early, or like Nal_ra and pull a series of weird strats out of his pocket and hopefully catch oov off guard :p | ||

Reach is the best protoss player alive, but even he will never beat oov in a macro match. | ||

Reach said in an interview that he was losing all his practice games there (prior to his loss to Xellos on that map in the quarters), and I think Yellow said something about needing to win there if he hopes to beat Boxer in the series. | ||

It's GG if the P gets contained, because the Terran can siege both the choke into the P's main and the bridge coming out of the natural from the same position. Also, the travel distance is shorter than that of normal land maps at certain positions, making the early push an even greater threat. | ||

Mercury -> terran >>>>>>> protoss map very balanced, yes? -_- still, im praying for reach to win ;] Mercury, Early game, P>T with Ranged-Goons. Mid game, T>P vulture harass + Tank drops Late game, it shouldn't come this far, but whoever has more resources wins (duh!) Since the games are more likely to go beyond 10 minutes, I'd say T>P Plennor, Haven't seen a bundle of replays on this, can't comment. Bifrost, P can pull off a lot of cheesy opens on this map (e.g., Cannon Zeal rush, Cannon behind main, Dual Gate behind main, etc.) Early game, evenly matched Mid game, still evenly matched So, balanced map. Requiem, Early game, P>>>T with Goons and Zeals Mid game, Even Late game, P>T (this is a half-island). Hence, P>T on this map. | ||

reach seems great on bifrost and mercury, so i think it will be a rather even match except maybe for pelennor | ||
