Here i thought he was supposed to be a high level protoss. Good thing Morrow is entertaining or I'd just leave, loving his defences. | ||

It's not that White-ra cant pull off anything better. That's just how the game is currently. Why use inferior tactics when you can win 1200 bucks ? | ||

They're only great(somewhat, SOMEWHAT) because Morrow is such a beast at defense. And for people saying "Oh, he's playing to win", that doesn't mean people can't be dissapointed in him. White Ra is basically saying, by 5 gating 3 times in a row(after getting totally dominated in a macro game): "I can't win vs Morrow in a macro game." And that's what makes me, along with other people in this thread, dissapointed with White ra and his play this series. | ||

In this case I think it's a simple case of knowing your opponent. Morrow is a macro monster. He loves them drones. White-Ra just abuses this. Also, of course, the maps: - Close position on metalopolis - Blistering Sands (did morrow actually pick this....................?) On the Xel'Naga game white-ra won quite convincingly because morrow just made way too many zerglings for no apparent reason. | ||

Plus white-ra is a beast at macro as well, he doesn't need to prove it to anyone; he needs to earn that dough and get his wife some nice things  I'm enjoying the games so far. It looks to me like morrow just needs to tweak his builds a bit more (less drones?) to hold off and take the lead. | ||

Morrow is the only excitement in these matches with some great defense and he tries so damn hard to hang on. I don't want to see a Protoss that just goes "Well my 1-base mega ball of units can beat you, so that's all I'm gonna do." That game on Shakuras was the same thing, only Morrow managed to come back after the first attack and White-Ra seemed to fall to pieces. Because he prepared accordingly. He had 4 or even 5 spine crawlers up. He didn't have a single one on Blistering Sands. | ||
