LOL despite him not knowing there was a third, 4 gates anyway. GREAT PLAY PROTOSSES. all the needed skills in there, forcefield abuse, 4 gate cheese, scouting deny, proxy pylon. LOL fucking protoss fan boys he saw the third... He didn't see the third. He knew there was a third from the timings but pretended not to know of the third by not scouting there.
Pretty much, or he basically just saw an enormously late pool and decided to 4G. Good call. It's extremely good effectiveness on such a huge map is still questionable to me, but not the thread to discuss it.

I just got here, can someone give me a quick update on how the previous 3 games went? (Can see results, but don't know what happened from that =P)
Thanks in advance

Both Alicia going for a 12 Gate and Yonghwa going for a 13. Alicia going for a faster Gas.

The sad thing is that some people will write Alicia's games off as mere cheese, when he actually responded to defend cheese almost perfectly against Losira, then displayed INSANELY good control in his double stargate and 4gate executions. If someone 3 hatches or fail baneling busts you, you might as well do what will be strongest (4gate, stargate, respectively). It's funny that people will just blame Alicia for playing macro games when his opponents are asking to get owned by some early rush. weren't you here for the LR threads of GSL march? Any protoss player who wins on less than 3 bases is automatically an all-inning cheeser 
Haha, yeah, I remember whining about whiners in those LR threads too. I'm such a hypocrite xD

er, yonghwa doesn't use a 4 gate in pvp. he has his own 3gate robo build.

I wonder how long it'll take Tastosis to notice that the UI works now.
That has to be a bug, by the way.
I think the new UI only works on Official maps.. or so someone reported yesterday.

This day is really ruined, bad finals so far. First game a cheese build, second game all in defended, third game cheese build. What next? Probe rush?
Man, you again with the negativity, they play to win and that's what he is doing. Plus, in game 2 he was rushed by banelings.

Yonghwa going for that 3 stalker build, Alicia's warpgate tech is a long way ahead

1st game was a Cheesy Proxy Voidray build
2nd game was a failed baneling all-in by Losira, which Alicia defended
3rd 4-Gate-Push WITH AWESOME FORCEFIELDSHERP
4th is goin right now

Alica is making all the right decisions, making it look easy. Definitely more fun to watch than MC.
That said I don't like protoss that much. Hopefully we will see at least one macrogame today. I wanna se MVP and MMA.

Send a protoss to combat the man that just executed a flawless improvised 4-gate.
Really? a "flawless" 4gate? Nestea had 4 zerglings and no spines at the time of warp in. He didn't even have to alter anything about his play due to his scouting, and a bad choice to double expand by Nestea. Not to mention it's the simplest strategy to pull off in the world. Don't get me wrong, Alicia's playing the game very well reactively.. so let's not get ahead of ourselves and say he's got the strongest 4gate ever..
Doubt that 4gate is easier than 6pool or 2rax bunker rush.

Game 1: voidray-rush vs terran
Game 2: failed baneling bust into double stargate ownage
Game 3: 4 gate vs double hatch zerg
EDIT: damn ninjas, pirates > you, keke?

This is completely unrelated to the game, but I'm quite liking the observer changes made in the patch, nice to always have both players resources and supply on display.
|
Oh no Alicia is 4-gating, he should know about the 3 stalker opening...
|
stop hating on the 4WG, when morrow or july do baneling bust it's reactionary gosu skill.
|
Really hope Alicia loses this, the epic TvT's we saw yesterday were so much more entertaining imo. I need my some mvp vs mma to see if the legendkiller can kill himself another legend!

Uh oh Alicia good strats this is sweet

Who the hell is piratebird?

Game 3: Three hatch before pool cheese from nestea expecting forge expand, alicia didn't forge expand, alicia scouted and 4 gated for win
