Hence we are awaiting massive finals. On August 13 2015 15:03 Ilikestarcraft wrote: I have wondered about the same thing but I have never seen a good terran ever attack the pylon. I always see them attack the gateway. I never personally tested it so I don't know the exact reasons why but just thinking about it, I think because pylons build so quickly if the protoss sees you attacking the pylon, he can just make another one and it'll probably finish when the first pylon is destroyed which means the gateway is still being powered.

It's easier for scvs to surround and hit the gateway than the small pylon, especially if you are microing against taking damage from probes. Are you kidding, guys?

A: These builds were not prepared for today. I was thinking I'll just see what my opponent does, and react. Back when I was a progamer, I really wasn't good at using Carriers. I didn't know how. But since I've been broadcasting on my stream, I've learned a few more things, got the hang of using them, and became more confident. So I used them today, and it went well in two games. Thanks for translating! PM'd ya another interview (here) but I imagine it's largely identical  Surprised Bisu impromptu switched to carriers reacting to Mind's builds, which seemed pretty standard TvP play... It's funny Bisu mentions having become accustomed to carriers in this Afreeca era, as he rarely uses them on Fighting Spirit, so I'd love to hear what he has to say about any shifts in TvP strategies that prompted this decision making... | ||

That said, Mind and hero improved a lot too from their PL days. They actually play like high-tier players nowadays. Impressive. | ||

I like it - it suits his style well, and I always wished he could play this way in the past, when there were OSLs to be won. Maybe he's just one of those players who shines in a less stressful environment? That said, Mind and hero improved a lot too from their PL days. They actually play like high-tier players nowadays. Impressive. Bisu has always played rather agressive and strats with a lot of multi tasking involved where other protosses shied away from. Even his standard builds looked different from other protosses because he executed them differently in regards to the use of the produced units. | ||

Well, unfortunately he had a habit of being predictable, and playing into T's strengths, with his normal builds. Terran is a better defensive race than Zerg, so it's a little harder for aggressive/multitask strats to really work without a proper understanding of timing and strategy. Bisu has gotten a bit better on that end at least, which actually makes his PvT results look better. | ||

He should've delayed rax a bit more and sent many SCVs earlier. 7 7 build is only effective when zealot gets into terran's base. If Terran secured killing that gateway before 1 zealot is made, then it will be terran's favor. | ||

Seemed more psychological than economical in terms of how much damage that zealot caused. | ||

If Terran secured killing that gateway before 1 zealot is made, then it will be terran's favor. With 6 SCVs and 4 counter probes, zealot timing was a coin flip. In time of moving SCVs we can see Mind's POV with 10/10 limit, one SCV constructing supply. 7 SCVs will leave him with 2 to consecutive 4 SCVs mining - massive economic handicap, even with greatly delayed rax. Besides, zealot was very effective just by the fact of construction - Bisu easily sniped a lot of SCVs without any significant damage to the probes. So 7 build looks pretty imba, of course, in case you have such nice multitasking and micro skills. | ||

While that is a lot, pulling all the SCVs he did, and losing half of them, already cost him at least enough to make that attack worth the money to Bisu. And Bisu would've had an extra 100 minerals from that zealot, and Mind would be short the minerals that that sixth SCV wouldn't have mined. Seemed more psychological than economical in terms of how much damage that zealot caused. Looking at the replay, the zealot got 4 scv kills, and most of a 5th (a probie helped a bit). Seems huge to me, especially happening that early. | ||
