MC microed to kill the mules as well. Very smart.

I love you plexa! xD

I loved that zealot control from MC! it was really well microed, so many SCV kills for a relatively few zealots, I dont understand the decision to get a marauder from rain tho

Why did Rain make a marauder instead of a reaper -_-

Because that's how you counter rush zealots. Following up zealot will always be stalkers. You need to get gas, then get marauders and concussive shell to kite zealots and stalkers. Terran don't have that much gas to produce reapers.


lol no. Tech lab+ marauder build time= 4-5 zealots. no way you're going to be able to kite stalkers and zealots. Best way is to bunker up and continue pumping marines and get a second rax.

That's how SEA Terran counter P zealot cheese. Of course you need the bunkers too. I didn't say T don't need it. After having a tech lab and get marauder, if you have enough money, make a second rax. You don't get second rax just to produce marines because follow-up stalkers will just kite them to hell.

uh, it's about as all-in possible. It's a freakin proxy inside your opponent's base. Since you have not played SC2 before, let me explain to you that if this fails, it's a GG x 10.


it's still no allin

i have seen a proxy gate go into a regular game by the protoss many times...

Tasteless and artosis just explained how you can use SCV to kill pylon.

one of you noobs who bash on rain tell me how to stop that rush? please

No hate here, but I'd rather place that 1 bunker a bit inside the mineral line(like 1-2 squares further back), put another on the other side, skip gas and pump rines. proxy gates are always hell to deal with, but tbh going gas like that was a very... stupid decision. MC was obviously cutting probes, better just work on fully saturating your base, get a ball of rines up and push out towards the gates. MC obviously did very well with that cheese though.

Marauders were the right choice against single gate. If it was double-gate, he wouldn't have gotten gas. He needed marauders to fight incoming stalkers. He just lost way too many scvs to zealots. , Imo, Rain should have attacked the gate, with scvs. 8gate is a huge investment (I think that's what Tasteless said this was), and forcing a cancel on the only gateway being made probably could have won the game.

no. its hard to stop if you get somewhat surprised by it. not when you scout it at 8-9supply. if his bunker wasnt placed so completly shitty and didnt go for a totally useless gas to get a marauder stopping all marine production he couldve defended it easily.


bunker placement was stupid and it lost him the game. you can cover evrything with one bunker. he failed to do that. he deserves to lose in the embarrassing way he did.


people are hating abit to much in this thread ya. but this was just terrible.

He cheesed someone out of a tournament who is obviously better than him. I don't see why you cant grasp this.

Attacking the pylon is the worst thing you could possibly do, but I'm not convinced that killing the gates is. It was great in BW. Don't know enough about SC2 to say whether or not it really works in SC2 though.
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.

Its really really baffling how people can actually like this music. Its borderline formless. The form that is there is entry level compositional technique, and there is barely any clever rhyme or modulation. Its like a massive drone of amateur harmony and melody with predictable cliche changes and high/low points. Stuff like this really proves that if you just make something sound artificially busy that people will be into it. Just like how burger king commercials never let the camera stay still etc.


its catchy and fun.

unlike tons of western popmusic which is 99% downright crap(POPOPOPPOPOKERFACE)

dont be so serious about it.


also sometimes "bad" and simple stuff can be very good.look at vybz kartel in the dancehall scene. mostly super simple and dumb music but sooooo freakin catchy cause the guy has some magic.

Modern music in general is crap.



cant say that. there is tons of amazing stuff out there in pretty much all genres. just most of it isnt what you see on tv.

Not in my opinion. Music reached it's peak almost 300 years ago and it's been going downhill ever since.


Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones...

Now, let's keep this thread about the match huh?

I like how you compared two of the most overrated bands of all time to the baroque era.


i like how you called 2 of the most influencial and important bands in history overrated


Subjectivity vs. objectivity. hmmm...


Subjectivity vs objectivity doesnt exist when examining parallel construction in strong writing.


are you expecting people to know what youre talking about or do you get off on sounding like a douchebag

I am so glad to see our Protoss-Hero probably taking it. I am glad it is no 4-0 and for entertainment's sake I hope Rain will win the next map!

exactly.

steppes is an auto lose to toss really since terran really outnumber toss's army in early game and FF is not the answer. not saying that Rain played like sh!t, but the gas mining, bunker position and the marauder were terrible decision.
is 2017, stop being lame, fuck's sakes. 'Can't wait for the rise of the cakes and humanity's last stand tbqh.'

reavers are from BW and require a robo with support bay. Unless you meant a Reaper, in which case it would have died very quickly to the stalker after the 3 zealots.

I think if he built the barracks right next to the gateway, all Rain would need is to start a bunker and an engineering bay or another barracks to completely wall-in that gateway. Then that gateway would be useless until warpgate is research.
