lol either that or protoss players don't know how to fight it at the mid-low diamond levels.

It's been 9 rounds so far where he has gone nothing but MMM + viking. Cant deny he does it well though can we (although it is boring for me to watch too) I don't get this. It's not about the unit comp, it's how you use it. Hell he can go marines only for all I care. If he shows godly game sense,micro and multitasking with only marines while winning that will be an amazing games. People are really getting annoying in live report threads. First it's about balance then it's about unit comp. Watch the player skill and enjoy that. Stop focusing on stupid crap and you won't find it boring. Starcraft has NEVER been about rock paper scissors that everyone seems to want to see. You cry about hard counters but then cry about unit comps. Pathetic. No offence, but i'd really rather watch another terran player right now who doesnt just go with the same unit composition 9 games in a row. Then I suggest not watching RTS. If you watch BW you see similar comps every game but the skill and execution in the game is amazing. If watching Select play absolutely amazing using the army comp over and over is boring to you I don't know how you can watch sc2 at all.
This. I swear most of the people complaining about unit compositions didn't play BW. I mean TvP in BW was the exact same compositions every game for both races unless there was cheese.

One thing a bout Starcraft that many new players here that never play BW need to know is" When you do the same build everytime, no matter how strong it is, your opponent will figure you out and beat you! So please do not bashing MMM when he win some games with it.

Select would really benefit from some emps. And get a raven please.

You do realize bio play is the very efficient against Protoss right? I don't understand all these people complaining about how SelecT plays. What do you want him to do? go mech and get wrecked by immortals?

Dunno. The spine crawler push by Idra was pretty cool. I'd say that last game was probably the most intense close game of the tournament.

i'm sorry, but eventually it just becomes bm.
well played kiwikaki
|
I wonder why Select is neglecting ghosts/emp.
|
Wow amazing game, kiwi definitely deserved that win. To me this is how you play Protoss: power units tearing everything apart. I would love to see select try his luck at the GSL though. Great multitasking
|
Kiwi's PvT is really good (definitely better than his "PvZ" against Idra), would have liked to see a bit storm action though...
I'll steal his idea to defend drops with DTs ^^
|
PvT: Either Protoss gets rolled my MMM in early game or techs up and owns Terran late game.

Why doesn't select get a raven. It's protoss for goodness sake. PDD, reveal ability, general awesomesauce.

Hey, I've got a stupid question somebody might know the answer to:
Are phoenixes higher attack priority for vikings than Colossi?
If so, makes more sense to hallucinate them - if Select doesn't manually fire, his units auto-target the hallucinations.
-Cross

It seems really crazy for Select to drag out that game for so long when he must be so exhausted.
|
Why do I picture IdrA reclining in a throne sipping brandy and smirking coyly as he watches the peasants battle for the opportunity to play against him.

ghost when the opponent doesnt have any templars or immortal ??
its a LOT of gas for not much

Yeah Select is showing awesome, awesome macro and micro. I don't see anyone complaining when in SC1 a terran goes marine+medic+science vessel against Z or tank+vulture vs P for the millionth time.

They seem really effective, since the basic bio play is to keep sniping those nexuses. Those DTs are just badass, though I wonder if select shouldn't make 1 raven or so when he sees those dts.
|
Hm, i much prefer Selects continuous fighting to Idra's instant gg when he loses one single fight. Marauders are so effective in small numbers and he denied the third of Kiwi so often, so never give up never surrender, especially with a control like that.
