Blindalbino was banned for several reasons but one of them was him flaming a player in this replay. It isnt some bias bullshit, it isnt TL preference or w/e garbage. It's someone being un unnecessary asshole in a replay featuring two tl.net posters who see these comments and dont want a practice game being exposed for no reason other than to be flamed. You can criticize. You can state opinions. But when you get mean, malicious or just rude it will not be tolerated. Fascist? Maybe. But that's how it is. This isn't a debate. Don't look to drag me into a flamewar. THis is hyow it is.

thanks

at the end, could artosis have returned minerals to his refinery? he might have been able to pull the game off, although it would have taken forever

For a moment I thought inc had admin powers and was about to scream bloody murder but apparently the balance between chaos and nirvana is still in place. As always, nice replay and I'm glad you're providing us with these.

You can only return minerals to Command Centers, not Refineries :p

OMG sooo nice game!

I really liked when artosis first knocked out 12 by ferrying troups to the upper cliff, nony lost a LOT of units just killing those 4 tanks and vults, and then artosis got him from below, sweet, really looked like it was nonys game just before that.

And then nony breaking 12 was quite epic too. mass storm!

And finally that monster emp killing 3 archon lol

and 2 vultures>the last dragoon, and the CC juuust died

omg so close!

really gg, but like someone above said, artosis missed some macro cycles in the mid-game that could have changed the game -_-

artosis could have won...wtf :/

it would have taken a long time but he could have just matrixed his vultures and killed cannons...nony should have quit.

good point, emp cannons + dmatrix on vult. vult will still take 1 damage.
Now if you add the fact that Nony had an island...

He also had 2 probes aswel, which he could of mined with :O

really really really niec game, but artosis mid game macro was really lacking, if he could of stepped that up he could of beaten down nony hard, but none the less a really niec tactical game, nonys storms were dead fucking on. That game was so back and fourth, i think when nony broke into the 12 nat and stormed away around 30 scvs it was the turning point from him losing to it being a draw.

Regardless, that game was fucking nice. Back and fourth back and fourth beauitful play, rarely am i ever amused by a TvP.

oh and a nice change of style too from nony, i guess hes not used to being so agressive, that could account for his macro mishaps, but he more then made up for it with his awesome unit placement and micro.
