Actually I'm pretty happy with that interview. Letting us know he wanted to do more macro play but had to rely on all-ins because of personal issues is really cool of Rain. Doesn't even hold a candlelight to Nestea. | ||

Also, game 3 was hardly all in, Rain was building his 3rd CC. | ||

My hat off to Rain. Nestea looked sooo much better but Rain just used every bit of thing and turned it around. WOW Blizzard can't be happy with a win like this and i really hope this will at least make them have a meeting about the marine-scv-allins. Now, give terran some option to do something else vs zerg and put an end to these all ins. They should just be used once in a while but like now it is a viable strategy =( | ||

As Aristotle said; "Hate the player, not the game". It's on Blizzard to fix this matchup, ideally by buffing T lategame so this isn't necessary and making defending easier early on (maybe buffing spines?). But this isn't a balance thread, so it'll suffice to say nobody should be hating on Rain. All competitive players do whatever it takes to win. | ||

Maybe that would be less true if fewer Terran players spent the first 10 minutes building marines. If you go with a strategy that's all about the early win, and you fail, should you really be able to seamlessly transition into winning the late game? | ||
