If Nuke had won, we'd get at least 6 games total in this series, possibly 7. If Puzzle wins this next one, we still get at least 6 games in this series, possibly 7. Same as above. | ||

From Zotac: IMMvp <Metalopolis>NEXByun IMMvp <Xel'Naga Caverns> NEXPuzzle IMLosira <Scrap Station> NEXPuzzle IMYongHwa <Blistering Sands> NEXPuzzle IMYoDa <Delta Quadrant> NEXPuzzle Not that I'm suggesting he's likely to do anything like that again, I'd definitely favour MVP/Nestea to win if he takes down YongHwa (which is certainly not a given) but hey, he's done it before. | ||

I've never understood this argument. Terran can easily go mech from the start if he wants to. If its good vs protoss tier 3 army, it should be good vs protoss tier 1 army. Immortals beat Mech until you get enough Mech to make their range an issue... I think? | ||

Jinro disgree's but overall i feel that immortals counter terran mech so hard that i dont see anyplace myself for mech in tvp. its could ofc be that that i suck in more ways then i can imagine and that Jinro is correct (as he kinda kicked mc's behind with mech) | ||

He did well vs MC with mech on close position LT which is probably the most optimal scenario for mech. He also beated MC on scrap, but MC did 2 base carrier... soo idk. It just seems to fail more than not and when it succeds its often because terran raped a mineral line with blueflame helions, much like jinro did on LT close. | ||

And blueflame hellion drops should be as much of a part of your mech play as marauder/marine drops as bio. | ||

IM seems like a highly intelligent and individual team. I like how they seem to work. I get the feeling their coach has a real understanding of the game. | ||

I think it's (talking mostly about tanks) far better than MM combo which just melts if P gets critical amount of colossi. As for immortal argument - ghosts+emp should easily take care of them, they also have small range. | ||

Strangely enough, Naniwa beat Goody in the a TSL qualifier final where Goody went mech with Colossi and Blink Stalkers, supposedly one of the things that mech is strong against. Then again, it was on LT, so I guess the cliff abusing advantage of both colo and blink stalkers probably outweighed or at least nullified the fact that mech does good damage against them. Come on Yonghwa! | ||

It's learning time! What is the least uppgraded skill in the entire game? No not observer speed. No not prism speed either. No not terran armour it's... 420MM Cannon for Thors! Go Thors+Mech, 420MM cannon immortals = profit. No seriously it's a mana free ability that instantly grabs hold of a unit and deals shitloads of dammage (was 500 unsure now). Point is, putting up tanks/mech would give the protoss no chance to not engage perfectly cause if he just dodges in his immortals will get grabbed. Not to mention that EMP rapes immortals aswell. Now I'm only masters not a pro gamer so I'm not saying this is always 100% perfect but people really should use the unused abilities more. | ||
