Lucifer killed Magma's spawning pool, but lost 4 zealots for almost zero lings. Magma's spire finished and 6 muta popped, he took out Lucifer's only cannon with his muta, and then killed the two new warping ones (that finished, but barely) and a lone zealot with his lings/muta, and then overwhelmed the cannons in his natural.
Also worth noting: the forge died at the very beginning because it was part of Lucifer's wallin and it was already low on health.

Doesn't matter either way, because your post is wrong. Did you even watch games from Nal ra's period? They may of been less quick, but not to a great extent where 150 is acceptable and now it is not. 150 was a joke. Nal ra made it work because he knew the game. He had good macro- maybe not the best, but it was always solid. Flash's macro is one of the best in the game, it has nothing to do with speed. It's not as if Flash ever missed a beat for his scv because his hands could not keep up with the pace of the game. Flash has great timing attacks, he has great build orders, but he also knows how to macro like crazy. Hence why he is compared to oov. As to the fpvods, I call bullshit. There are no flash FPVODS except for a few he had on a game show, against amateurs...which says absolutely nothing about his real ability. We have no replays of Flash, we have no FPVODS, none that are in real games anyways. We have generally, no idea what his apm is or whether he spams, or any crap like that. Nal ra is protoss that's why he made 150 apm work, also I highly doubt he really was 150 show me a replay of this and it better not be from 8 years ago. Every time they switch into flashes fpview he doesn't seem like anything special as far as mechanics go, even in his replays he just looks like a regular terran but he always attacks exactly when he needs to. 1) Quit the protoss bullshit, its not 1a2a3a4a to win, there is always shit to do. 2) I said height of dominance, like a few years ago. Pringles msl etc. If you want proof of his low apm, maybe you should just look around. There are plenty of topics discussing pro gamers apm, and they have evidence. There was one not long ago, and nal ra was clearly discussed in it. Go learn. 3) They show the players FPVOD for like 20 seconds.... 4) What replays? Leaked ones from years ago? A few low key practice games? Non existent ones? What?
There's always something to do, yes BUT as protoss it's minor little things like moving zealots around but in the terrans case you have to plant mines and do actual things instead of JUST positioning the army but terran also needs to position their stuff so protoss is just easier to play, even their macro is easier because of probes so lower apm is possible but there was never a terran who was slow and good, even boxer was always decently fast. As far as replays I remember watching a few of him unless the guy who posted lied that it's flash.

So like, the day following Daniel Lee's retirement, eStro takes down the top Starcraft team 3-1? :/

Im sick of terrans just pissing on P's because they play a race that is harder to learn mechanically -_-, it's like a free pass to brag.
Good job estro anyway!

Haha, eSTRO scores a win. KTF drops a precious game in the playoff race. It's what you get for playing Hery. Hery sucks.

What kind of argument is that? If protoss is easier to play it's because Zealots don't have mines, and dragoons can't seige. And what protoss wouldn't like to have that?. Which Terran would ever want mines and seige to be removed from their units to have easier control? If you must have more mechanics it's because of the things that make you better.
In late game things are more equaled, because protoss must controll HT and Arbiter usually. So I'm not saying it's imbalanced, I'm saying at early and midgame T have better units, thus requires better mechanics.
