Considering the map that was, Scrap Station, Noblesse basically just expected Maka to do the predictable thing, Banshees, and gave it the perfect counter.

If Maka goes out, the only people left to cheer for are HuK, Rain, Leenock and the winner of JobSu and Ret.

that game was very interresting, saw the ghost in the production tab when I opened the stream and I thought there was a TvP going on.

Hopefully this ghost play reduces the number of banshee openings in TvT. I hate how a player can win a TvT just from a banshee getting a dozen scv kills.

is it just me or does kelly really know extremly little about SC2? I dont mind her accent or w/e but it just seems like she says random things hoping they are true. Maybe it will get better but tbh, the most important thing about a commentator is a solid knowledge about highlvl play.

Such an intresting game, one of the best uses of ghosts I have seen since like TLO nuke pushing/defending against Hyperdub in s1.

It's also not that bad against blue flame hellion drop which is the other 'standard' on Scrap. Ghost >>> hellions :D

how would that open fair against iechoics tvt build? Ghosts get bonus to both banshee and hellion, nothing gets bonus to ghosts... I'm not a terran player, just curious xD

Tasteless was in an uncomfortable positions as "The Smart Guy", which isn't his normal role. So both commentators were off. Now that one is comfortable and experienced, Kelly has a lot more support and is doing a lot better. I imagine Tastely will get better in a bit, too.

Extremely short game.

That ghost opening was sick. It smooshed the Banshees, but I think it might've actually been...safe?

Will ghost openers become standard? It looked really good.

Game 2 on Crossfire. Noblesse up 1-0, ruining my Liquibet

No it can't become standard, because you will either simply lose against a marine/tank push or you will have a later expansion than your opponent because you will have to get additional tech to deal with it.

But doing it on a map like Scrap Station is really clever.
