Why are you comparing eu t's with jinro? I think mc plays a lot better than white ra dunno why.


Well, Jinro is from EU, and it's not like everyone who's been to Korea is better than the EU players.

A lot of people say stuff about how EU players would do quite well in the GSL and whatnot. You might not be one of them, but I'm just commenting on how I think there's still quite a skill gap. Still, that was just an example, and I feel like these little mistakes like losing banshees and medivacs don't happen in most pro games I watch.

Sjow just went 11-0 tvt vs europe's best, I really would like to see him play vs Jinro actually.


TLO won vs sjow 2 weeks ago, 3-2 and 3-0 ~~

I think SjoW just proved that he is best european terran by far, AND that not scouting with a SCV is the way to go

It seems that White-Ra has improved alot in skill lately, he is just on top of stuff right now! Gogo in the finals!

Edit: Forgot about TLO, but I think they are quite close in skill to be honest, TLO just slighty better.

So what .. 3-2 doesn't really say a lot to begin with. 3-0 is a statement, but even Sjow can have a day off

i am sooo pumped for fnatic vs mtw, altough i stopped playing cs like 4 years ago.

iem european championship feels like the european cup of soccer, a must watch.

i think esl choosed the three best games for this. all (sc, cs and ql) are really a nice esport to watch and this makes esport much popular

last but not least: gogo fnatic! :D

NOt sure if this has been posted already but we made an interview with show before the Tarson match, more videos coming up as well. One is of Sjow analyzing a match and the second will be a pre-finals interview with Sjow.

But first..

Some people think marauders are bad in TvT? Who are these people?


koreans and for a reason, marauders get destroyed by marines and I'm not even talking when a PDD comes into play. If one terran goes marauders he suddenly isn't that mobile anymore because of marines, he cant' drop nor bust tank lines, marines are soo much better, the only situation where marauders work is when you're ahead anyway and want to end the game breaking a terran stalling with siege tank defense


I wasn't advocating pure marauder play. But if your opponent has any decent number of tanks, not getting marauders is just silly. They soak so much damage and take out the tanks so fast while protecting your own. It has been shown since the beta that marauder's mobility and strength against tanks will always mean they have a place in TvT if your opponent makes enough tanks.


but in beta people weren't playing heavy marine to support tanks, it was heavy vikings, and that changes everything.

Also you can upgrade faster when not building marauders, have more tanks / medivacs, and that's way more effective than to try to brute force with marauders ; a marauder dies to 3 tank shots, a marine 2 tank shots, if you have proper control (spreading flanking etc) it's better in almost every situtation to have 2 marines instead of 1 marauder.


One of the major differences which I'm talking about is how you engage. The Marine heavy + tank vs eachother obviously favor the person who is paying the most attention and has better unit control + game sense. Usually at that point in the game 1 player has the advantage and they're allowed to be the more mobile force, harassing the terran who is usually trying to move forward to secure an expansion. However, should both players be defending their tanks well and are careful with their sieging, that's where marauders can be used with high efficiency. This becomes also important should you lose your tanks in a fight, leaving your opponent with a much larger number so that rebuilding your own would take too long. Last night GSL game being a decent example.

Nice interview. Glad to her someone talking about analyzing his opponent. Sjow seems like a smart guy. "I didn't prepare at all" statements rly pisses me off. o.O

This is kind of off topic, but if I post in the guest pass thread, no one ever responds, so I'm going to post here -- does anyone have an EU guest pass that I could have? I would willingly trade an NA guest pass for it, in fact, I've tried, but the tler I was exchanging the keys with sent me an invalid pass . Pm me if you want to!

On another note, whitera fighting!
