(at least Etter is not staff anymore, you sir are just a hater). You know forum examples are set by people with powers... (and vets to a lesser degree) hell, it's you who keep whining about that all the time anyway. Then try to show how it's done, maybe. | ||

It's all about what your opponent knows about what you're doing it and how they'll counter it and how you'll counter their counter. What you can get away with. Where you can cut corners and power your economy. How you can exploit threat to manipulate your opponent. The mechanics side is what I suck at which is why I lose PvT. Odd that we have such different ideas about the matchup lol. pvp is the most micro intensive matchup, as well as the combination/balance of units. of course strategy is heavily involved too but a lot of progamers say they like pvp because they know they will most likely win if they're better. | ||

If he was truly trying to play safe he would've thought of this. So it doesn't seem to me like that was what he was trying to do, or at least he did a fairly poor job of it. But the proxy on byzantanium, i don't know why he did that. I think JangBi's expo in game 4 was an improvisation caused by the pressure of being 1-2 down in his very first finals and desperate for any kind of build order advantage. You're right that in a properly prepared build he would have used pylons to improve his defence and I'm sure that he knows that. | ||

Nada and FBH lost their MSL matches because they had hype threads, now, JangBi had his. Bisu fans knew better that's why no one posted a hype thread for him! Go go Bisu!! "Don't practice too hard for it, because I'll win it" | ||
