why dont u jus throw down roach warren?


Idra thinks going roaches early is over rated lol. I think opening roaches is good you get more larva for drones and great for holding off some early all ins from terrans . Also putting a drone on ramp so that terran can't proxy bunker works great also but whatever hopefully Idra starts working on it ^^.
When I think of something else, something will go here

I think the point of the thors is that you absolutely cannot go phoenix against thors, so the banshees are super hard to deal with.

Yeah no one predicted this Looks like people all underestimated the talent that exists in the US/Canada, since 3/4 are American/Canadian.

So, how many American/Canadian take part in this tournament?


Don't pull the numbers game, please. European tournaments have more EU players as well...

LOL What? YOU pulled the numbers game with your "3/4" comment. And it's pretty normal that you have more NA players in the top 4 when there are more players of them in the tournament.

He was very concerned about losing his collossus. At that point they were virtually undefended with all his gateway units being wiped out.



Should have been concerned about a Terran with 2 more bases than himself...


He obviously wasn't aware of that at that point. When he did...he attacked quickly and lost everything.

Storm the vikings and bio. Vikings don't actually have much HP.
Teeler lost because he probably hasn't seen that composition before and was just a little confused.



Whole point of thors is that it counters storms so that P can't storm bio/vikings

storm +colo is like ultimate weapon, thors would evaporate rly fast


think that's what all the banshees were for.

u do realize that storm hits them too ? low hp ones could be cleared by phoenixes, the mistake tyler made was transitioning to vrs but not getting storm

Tyler's lack of map awareness was the real killer here. Tyler had a bigger army at many points and wasted it attacking fortified positions instead of two vulnerable hidden expos.

painuser deserved the wins


Yep, he totally outmacroed Tyler and he has a clever lategame composition.


"outmacroed" is floating 3k minerals while randomly dropping ccs everywhere while still having a superior army?



its better than not expoing like Nony did and being poor.
dont fool urself too much pls

plus his gas was low theres no good mineral dump T unit vs 10 colos, marines are useless



Marines arent useless, Tyler was attempting a switch to voidrays and immortals, marines are good vs both.

Painuser's late game decisions were amazing, very endgame thors, marines, vikings with tanks and banshees trickled into the mix was beautiful.

I think the turning point was in the battle by the top right high-ground spawn when Tyler dominated the ground battle and was left with mainly collosus, and painuser with vikings.
Nony should have immediately just send the collosus back to the base and save as many as he can, warp in reinforcements and repressure.

HTs would be great versus banshees... for feedback, not storm.

I feel pathetic. I think the regame for Tyler is affecting me more than him. I don't know why I'm so upset that it happened, but it is really bothering me. I know MLG_Lee has clarified their position and asked for feedback, but I can't help but feel upset by this. I almost think I need to go watch Day[9]'s dealing with a loss to hear about the chemicals going on again. I guess it's a good sign I'm this invested in the events of MLG, but I'm kinda pissed at myself for feeling this strongly. Like I said, this is pathetic how I'm feeling. Anyone have words (good or bad) for me?

Go to bed, see you tomorrow.


If you don't follow any college/pro athletics, just talk to someone that does. What you're talking about is a pretty standard reaction for a fan who endures a tough loss. Maybe the regame affected him a lot, maybe it didn't. In either case, the games went late, like Tyler prefers, and he still lost. I think he'll still have a strong showing in the losers bracket and probably come away from this loss with a better understanding of his weaknesses.

With proper positioning (Collosi in the back) Archons are great counters to vikings. No?

Would a mix of immortals, stalkers, chargelots, HTs and phoenixes been a strong enough force to beat Painuser? He played very well.

IdrA was pissed after losing to Select.
You could see how infuriated he was.
His loss though, he should have been prepared for that.

IdrA needs to understand that he is better than everyone playing straight up most games.
So he's gotta think, yea, most of the people I'm going to face is going to cheese me at some point.
He really needs to change his attitude about his ZvT and it is actually a dangerous matchup for him.
