Haha I know right? Isn't this the third time in a row Machine has come up against Incontrol at MLG? Lucky for Incontrol who beat him twice but it looks like whoever does win is going to be playing Select. 0_0

Mouseover the stream and click on the speaker symbol.
That doesn't seems to work for me, it just like takes out some noise in the background or something
Have you tried restarting the stream? There was some dual audio problem earlier.

Incorrect. The spire was placed before his lings scouted. That in itself may be a mistake but ultimately irrelevant to your point.
Then why not cancel?
Sunk cost? Just because a building isn't useful now doesn't mean it can't be useful later. The utility of getting those minerals/gas back < having the future flexibility.
Making a spire when you see your opponent going mass thors is silly. He could have thrown down the infestation pit at that point and utilizied his neural parasite tactic much sooner.
You get 75% of the cost back which is 150/150. Basically one infestor; three roaches; etc. Not worth it, and once again, the utility of having that flexibility far outweighs having that money, especially when on three bases.
1 infestor and 3 roaches would have helped him more in that match than the spire would have. I understand what you mean by flexibility, but the outcome of the match voices my opinion.
Ends-means reasoning? Well, I never.
Get out of here with that garbage.
Tell me. How did the Spire help him out in the match. You talked about flexibility, but the fact of the matter is that the spire was never utilized and was basically minerals wasted. He would have performed much better if he had canceled and replaced the spire with the infestation pit.
stop. using. ends-means. reasoning.
please, you're hurting my brain.
Just because something didn't work doesn't mean it was wrong. Go back to gold league.
Because in a RTS game ends-means reasoning is bad? If you think making a spire and then not using it is a good thing I honestly don't know what to say to you. Sounds more like you're the one who is in Gold League.

godly BW pro-clare micro'd marines do in fact beat an a-moving unit. Believe it or not.
So unless you're at Clare's level, stop saying EL OH EL FOXER JUST BUILDS MARINES.
it isn't hard to spread marines. The terran was just bad.
Yeah... I lol at the people who think "You gotta be foxer to split marines", uh, no. I don't think this terran is bad I think it's just nerves because marine spreads shouldn't be that bad at their level.
