Colossi take a loooong time to build, when select won the battle and pushed kiwi's 3rd he should have just backed up. Protoss can warp in 10 units at the same time indeed but those units suck vs a big group of terran units. Instead Select runs in, suicides his army + all his VIKINGS. He could have just gone back and come 2 mins later with a HUGE army and be up vs 3 colossi at most. cool | ||

It would be 2 Bo5's for a finals then or 2 Bo3's or 1 Bo3 and 1 Bo5, so 2nd place player would have 2 losses no matter what. | ||

Kiwikaki set up infrastructure to resupply a whole lot faster than Select and it eventually reached a point where Select could not keep up. also, watch Bomber vs WhiteRa to see how badly a Terran can beat what many consider to be one of the best Protosses in Europe. I agree, and I would add that we saw Kiwi use two separate deep tech paths (Colossus, DTs). We basically saw marines, maruaders medivacs and vikings out of SelecT. A PDD or two in those battles could've also made a pretty huge difference. I'm not telling SelecT how to play, far from it, I'm just suggesting that we basically saw him on the same tech for a REALLY long time, and its hard to suggest huge balance problems when there were lots of options select had that he didn't necessarily use. | ||

i agree that SeleCT played much better and is the more skilled player, but this game just showed how TvP late game is broken, kiwikaki could just move attack and eat all EMP and still come out evenly in the battle, even if SeleCT wins the 200 vs 200 food battle kiwikaki could just warp in +10 chargelots to cleanup the rest and make SeleCT retreat.. Your exactley right. ASelect won each of the first 3 battles, crushed Kiwi, but because Kiwi could warp in 10 more units off of Cool Down., Select had to retreat while his units took 30 seconds to build and join the force. Select could never push his superior play because of a game mechanic. The player who [played best in game 2 lost. | ||

Kiwi's army really depended on pumping 3 colossi at once and just having those vikings out there would make the battle so much easier. | ||
