People don't understand the power of that timing push, because most Terrans are stuck in the mindset "MMM is the only thing that works vs. Protoss."

If you've ever watched Trump play his two-thor 250mm timing you'll know how strong thor timings are and how equal numbers of immortals DO NOT stop it whatsoever.

Gotta remember that Ravens can be strong too, and well placed PDDs is practically GG for toss if they put on too much agression.

After looking at this game, I'm scared. I know that Tyler didn't answer in the best way, but I'm trying to think of ways to counter this build, and I'm having troubles to think of anything ^^

Chargelots + Immortals + A lot of Void Rays?

I'm expecting come across this build quite often in the ladder now... -_-

They do, you just need a good position and not be outmacro'd.


Ye, once you get alot of thors vs alot of immortals, Strike Cannon gets pretty clumsy. Thors will walk into each other or get sniped before the animation even starts

Mass hallucination of immortals/collosus would also confuse the thor cannon

I don't really understand tyler that game. Regardless, that's not an easy thing to beat even if you react correctly.

Heh, Thor Mech is unstoppable if you max.


It's stoppable, it's called chargelot/immortal, throw some VRs in the mix and its over. Tyler's just playing this game the wrong game


The zealots wouldnt make it through them blue flame hellions, strike cannon would tear out the immortals and he also had vikings out as his anti vr units, he just focused more on thors after seeing the collosus/stalker composition.



Not really. Immortals should easily outnumber Thors, and he will need a lotttttttt of blue flame helions to stop chargelots. It's not unbeatable, Tyler just didn't react accordingly


Ya I agree with this. It is easy to say "well this kills this, and that kills that" but really it isn't that simple. Tyler just had a terrible composition and didn't try to harass at all either knowing the lack of mobility of the thors... but he could have made better decisions to win it.

I'm pretty sure it's peaked at 40K in previous TSL matches.

more like 50k

tell me guys please.. how did they play?


its casting from replays so they played at a good time for both i guess, but what is with the korean ping?

did they play in the USA on the NA Battle net too?

or did they play on the korean B.Net?



i Really dont know boy.. maybe someone else does


They said game 1 was played on NA. Games 2 and 3 were played on EU and games 4 and 5 were played on NA (if needed).

Kinda strange decision if you ask be, but anyways.


It's in the rules. Higher seeded player gets first game on their server. Next 2 go to lower seeded player's server. Last 2 go to higher seeded player.

The exception is KR vs EU since EU players have horrible latency on KR and vice versa, so they compromise on US.

If you get enough immortals to 1-shot thors you should be able to target down the thors before they finish using their strike cannons. TLO lost this way to Killer/Sangho in GSL 2.
