Cutting Colo production and goin back to immortal... win It seems that the popular consensus is that immortals are bad against terran mid/lategame because marauder balls melt them since you can get so many marauders. However, ofc this doesn't account for the protoss himself massing immortals. In the case where there are very high numbers of each, and not just 2-3 immortals thrown into the army for fun, kiwi is showing us the devestation that can wreck in lategame. | ||

He looked to be on top of his game, but then again Silver played rather poorly and engaged in some real silly spots | ||

I think Kiwi is better than some of the players that participated but hes still far away from the skill lvl of for example tester. | ||

At this level that's just huge. I was pretty surprised when Silver didn't push in really early. Thought that was the whole point of getting Conc shells so early... | ||

Are you serious? Yeah you said you were serious. Get a grip. He plays well and I like the 1 gate robo build, but you cant compare anything he has done to some of Testers play in ro64 and ro32. Tons of better games and better plays in both ro64 and ro32. Did you even see PoltPrime, TLO, Tester, Fruitdealer, oGsTop, ITR, oGsInca and the tons of others extremely good games in ro64 and ro32? | ||

You said 10 times worse, and you said Silver couldnt beat IdrA at a tournament, showing how little you know and how little you actually follow SC2 Give it up and before you hit "Post" at least spend 4-5 seconds thinking your replies through. Not gonna waste more time on you, i rather enjoy these games | ||
