This happened three times now and I don't think those were kind words in any case. The interview after his game against tarson at IEM certainly wasn't very well mannered. But pretty funny

4 gate is really taking over PvP in these high level matches...wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard increases the research time for warp gate...

For those of you that play high level PvP, why don't players go 'forge tech' vs 4 gate? On paper cannons compare very well to stalker/zealot (32 hp*dps/cost compared to 20 for zealots and 8/6 for stalkers). The cannons can also allow you to bank gas and supply for immortals 29/11 (great stalker killers) and then fast colossi (12 hp*dps/cost but assuming 3 units a swipe it is closer to 36).

Would this work? It is too vulnerable to blink stalkers?

it allows you to tech up faster sure, and defends pretty well against an aggressive 4 gate, but like many have said before, they are worthless later on in the game. the 150 cost for the forge +1 or 2 cannons could be 3 zealots or a few stalkers more, but you're right in that pvp hasnt been fully fleshed out yet.

People are only even disappointed in the BM because it's White-ra, and we generally hold him to a higher standard. Everyone knows it's easy to get frustrated, especially in PvP.

It might work versus 4 gate, but your cannons cannot walk, which means that your opponent can take an expansion (as you reall need 2 cannons to be safe, at least, which is 450 minerals in total...)

I'm so hyped for MC vs Thorzain already... can't wait for it

Well 4gate is like porn, everybody knows its bad(and easier to find than a gf) but everybody uses it. So WhiteRa(DuckloadRa) said nothing wrong, its really easy to use and super effective, he's not BM.

Remove Protoss from the game and SC2 will instantly become balanced and fun.

You can then +1 very fast which is crucial for colossi of how their damage stacks.

Yes it would be vulnerable to blink stalkers, plus if it is scouted your enemy just instantly expands and can contain you with their 4 gate units for a long time.

I'm inclined to thoroughly disagree. SC2 terran feels like BW zerg, BW terran like SC2 zerg and protoss still being relatively similiar to its other counterpart

It's ridiculous how many people defend White-Ra based solely on Day and Incontrol's constant hyping of his good manners. White-Ra is human and gets frustrated like everyone. He was being sarcastic in the San game (admitted to it on Kelly's interview, it wasn't a compliment) so it's probably not unreasonable that he was being sarcastic in this game when he lost 3-0 with the final game being a 4-gate.

I still respect White-Ra but the people just refusing to see that he gets frustrated are hilarious. Like White-Ra is a saint or something.

If the 4gate is the besty why he lost in game 2?

No matter if someone said that WR would never BM because he's soo cool and so Manner... after loosing from korean his lost his credit imo...

I'm pretty sure Thorzain is going to put up a very good fight vs MC. Can he win though?

Why are ppl making such a fuss over what white-ra said in that last game?? It's ridiculous, he made a comment about a build, a tiny bit of QQ and ppl are all over him, that's insane. It doesn't really matter if it was BM or not, he's still probably the best mannered player around, one of the most skilled (if not the most consistent) and one of the best to watch players in the scene.

God White-Ra haters are on fire today, wtf? He's the most likeable guy around, definitely.
