so HIGH LEVEL! A Protoss building 4 gateways and atacking blindly, so CREATIVE!!!


The best of this last game are gonna be the fan tears for sure :D

MC beasted his way into winning the whole thing. The last games of the finals were meh because his opponent wasn't up to the task but that doesn't make MC less boss.

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.



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.


If you can cope without building the bunker though you'll have your orbital and you'll be way ahead in eco. Anyway, this is something that doesn't deserve so much theory crafting imho. You just do what works at your current level of play. The only thing I can say is that I can't remember the last time I lost to Protoss cheese and I always pull the 3-4SCVs to kill the pylon and then do a suitable followup.

pretty disappointing series i must say

Was to be expected. Hardly anyone thought Rain is really good, so it was natural for MC to win this clearly.

... In life very little goes right. "Right" meaning the way one expected and the way one wanted it. One has no right to want or expect anything.

Bad, boring series, but the experience was made a thousand times worse by endless commercial breaks and interminable intros. It's amazing that Gom can make the rest of the season enjoyable and interesting, but completely drops the ball during the finals.

GG? Not really, only one good game out of the series.

Not sure it was worth staying up for. Wishing for longer, better played games was just silly i guess.

I now officially no longer like either of these players.

I kinda feel like Rain should have run the hellions back to his base after killing all the probes; there were basically only zealots and sentries left for MC

Still the best GSL finals so far

MC has negative charisma.wanted to say he has no charisma, but in fact it's worse than that...takes the trophy, then...nothing, just takes the trophy and walks as he's going to the toilet ><

Funny how some of the games in the RO64 were much more better than the finals... Kind of an anticlimactic feeling right now.
