I've never seen that proxy reaver before but it was obvious that he wasn't going to waste time making a shuttle when he built it there. Tastosis miss some obvious things sometimes and sometimes their knowledge is lacking about the more intricate details of the game, but they also catch some things i don't catch and provide entertaining commentary so it's all good.

been around since terrans started doing that rax cc expands builds..

so that is since like what?? 2005 2006ish?
No...try 2010...


People were doing Rax Double in late 2008. It was map dependent though.

I'm pretty sure you won't find players doing this build regulary in the TSL 2 (2009) rep packs. Maybe there were some korean pros doing it on specific maps, but at that time it was as exotic as FE in PvP. Nowadays both is common.

I played quiet actively till 2010 and remember that I was totally amazed by the FE build when I came back to the game around 2012. But maybe memory is playing a trick on me

I think it was either Flash or Sea who said on stream that it was the Estro terrans such as UpMaGiC and Really who started to experiment with barrack expansion builds versus the protoss race. The above game is one of the earliest examples of such a case, with UpMaGiC trying it out in early 2009.

rax fe became relevant when low ground with high group expansion maps like byzantium, jade and gladiator became the vogue where it was considered suicide to do a traditional FE against protoss - you'd just get 2 gate goon'd to death.

edit: it was only when protoss players started doing 21 nexus to get ahead of the standard fd/fe builds and terran's developing proper sim city placement that the build truly became mainstream.

Apparently his PvZ is Bisu-esque. Haven't watched him though, that's only what I heard.

He is defintively not someone that needs to rely on cheese, but he can be very aggressive and suprising for sure. Entertaining to watch. Has practised a lot of PvZ lately and has a really good score vs them.

He is part of my bet, I think he has a pretty good chance to go through starting right away with a win on Sparkle on which he's been pretty strong vZ. I'm pretty sure regardless of which bracket he is on, he can beat Sharp and Action.

I mostly remember Mini for storming his forge vs Soulkey.

Yeah that was fun.

Also, whoever is interested in Mini's PvZ: Check out him v Larva in the People's Sponbbang vol. 2, starting in 27 minutes:
