Rain did a clever thing, tricking MC into buying the 2 rax expand BO - then made some small mistakes but won well deserved I agree with you, like damn, I'm hoping rain wins the whole thing. | ||

Yeah, we're waiting on the outcome of the series to see who is better, or do you just want to give MC the trophy right now? | ||

If MC was on a robo build, it wouldn't have worked, and Rain didn't know either way. 2.Excellent usage of the banshees In that first main push with all his army units, the banshees were front and centre... ready for stalkers to take them down. The most expensive units, and Rain just let them die. (OH - and he A-moved that attack.. you could tell from the marauders and rines on the side attacking the geyser structure). 3. Excellent play by Rain. Rain almost lost a game he had to definetely win from the blind build orders of both players. He ALMOST lost. Rain is a noob. I don't think rain is playing well, but people still got to think that rain is actually making some of those decisions, they aren't mistakes. 1. port banshee+cloak works best if unscouted, but it is still pretty damn strong until HTs are out, so it's a flip coin maybe, but aren't all build orders. If anything trying to bait your opponent to do something that your build works well against... he should get some extra credit for that... 2. He did that on purpose. He had the banshees just in range of the pdd and I guess he felt it was more prudent to kill whatever they were attacking, esp since it doesn't really matter if pdd energy gets wasted while stalkers shoot the banshee or the mm 3. He never really lost the game. If anything all the people that hate rain strongly should appreciate that he didn't go all-in with the advantage he had, but rather built ontop of it. While I think he should've gone for the probes, he was far more ahead than supply indicated and that push by MC was just a death rattle, trying to get rain to make a very big mistake and bring MC back into the game. | ||

Like.. was I the only one who saw the second game where he managed to lose 20 SCV's at his gold expo to one single DT and 21 SCV's to a HT at his nat just because he lacks the micro to pull em back, those 2 units were pretty much ignored and could reign free killing his stuff. How do you even defend that. Well, I guess its safe to say that people who lost to him don't deserve to be in the final either. | ||

If MC had ignored the 2nd barracks or gotten a robo anyway then Rain was fucked. Game sense. What are you talking about? Otherwise everything that anyone does is just luck. If you scout 2 port banshee and respond with stalkers and win, then you're just lucky cause he could've just expanded and gone MMM. Wat. | ||

i'd like them to be more levelheaded, no more nervous panic attacks or blind teching into several directions, so far the ZvT clashes of GSL1/2 felt more epic :x | ||
