What I'm entertained by is the cries to pull SCVs. The commentary just explained why this isn't possible, and the numbers back it up. If SCVs are pulled, Terran loses economy, and Protoss is already good for macro without Terran having to deal with the cheese. And at this level, Protoss isn't just whelping the cheese if he cancels the gate/looses the cheese at that point because it is a net gain for toss and Terran will MOST LIKELY eventually lose.

Yeah! And thats what happens when you dont pull SCV's. You leave it all down to micro. Better safe than sorry is what I say... But i'm not a pro so dont take my word for it. Ill gladly change my opinion if a pro says something about this.
I'd like a pro to talk about their response to it.
As far as I'm concerned, this happens on SEA all the time and the way I deal with it is by pulling SCV's and I know I'm not alone in that!

Okay, here's the actual best counter to this strat:

1) As soon as it's scouted, build your rax behind your mineral line.
2) Build bunker in the direct center of your mineral line.
3) Bunker now covers all your scvs, your rax, and your CC.

Don't listen to noobs saying to attack the pylon/gates with your workers, tasteless and artosis know what they're talking about.


What you suggest might work, but it's still very difficult when Protoss is producing Zealots at the same rate that you are producing marines, I don't know if you're actually playing the game or just watch a lot and blindly accept everything that Tasteless and Artosis say as the undeniable truth.

I for one have faced proxy gate cheese on SoW multiple times in ladder, though maybe not this particular one that MC was doing, and each and everytime I defended it comfortably by sending 3-4 SCVs to kill of the pylon. Believe me or not, it does work.


iEchoic is right. That is the best counter economically.


Until your SCVs start dying maybe. I also think it's way better to do some nice sim city that blocks certain paths for the Zealots and placing a second rax than placing a bunker. But hey, stick to your theory crafting, what do I care... I do what works for me.

MC's base was undefended though. Wouldn't have been easy to defend and also rally some marines teh other way?

This should sum up this thread.
Thank you a billion times for this.
More playing, less fucking whining

I'm actually refreshed that people are blaming the player and not the balance of the game for once.

I still feel that blaming a player is still in the annoying tier category. It's a step up in terms of objectivity, but not quite out of the dismal mire of unattractive posting.

NOPE, Maynard Gate. If you don't get the reference, don't bother. Its not worth your time to look it up. But it is definitely a Maynard gate.

Yes I get why you it's Maynard because of maynarding wokera but manner makes more sense IMO.

It was known as the horror gate in BW - might want to check up pokju vs bisu on peaks of baekdu for reference!


That game has been forever ingrained in my memory.

wish it was a best of 9, if mc wins this now, it was way too short to be an interesting final, it's over before I had time to properly cheer for the poor guy busy losing (isn't that what spectating is about too ?)

This series is clearly showing the weaknesses of SC2...at least at this current state.


No, it only shows how matured are people posting here on tl.net.. There is nothing wrong with SC2.

MC cheeses, Rain fails to defend - people blame endlessly and you think there is something wrong with balance.

You can 2rax and bunker without losing any time. You just drop 2 fast raxes and build another SCV instead of an OC (which comes slightly delayed). You end up with 100 extra for a bunker.

...........No its called Maynard because of Maynard the player who was super super old-school player who started the whole "sending workers to your expo while it finishes". he was THE dominant SC player way before we had e-sports scene we do today. Just a man with a computer and a will to win. THAT is why we call it Maynarding.
