ustream lag like shit

You for real? i definitely have a slow internet, and i still have yet to get any resemblance of lag on the HQ stream, even during the fights. I am thinking it may be something on your end. TSL has been stable for me for everyday it has been on so far.

Why would he lie about ustream lagging for him? The world is quite a big place and it wouldn't surprise me if Ustram didn't work everywhere as it requires a lot of servers all around the world to cover it all.

lol blue flame hellions and tanks would rip zealots a new one. He should of gone stalker/immortal super heavy. Honestly that build seems hard to stop for protoss if you let it get to that point. I'm a little stumped for protoss solutions atm.

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


If you get 200/200, yes, that happens if the Thor player isn't careful with where he engages.

But the beauty of Thorzain's timing push, and Thor pushes in general, is that they hit before 200/200 and at a time when unit clumping isn't too big of an issue.

Scratch that, mass blink stalker would be the best against this. They're good against hellions and vikings can't touch them. The added mobility and focus firing thors would make them the ideal choice.


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


True. It's a good build. I need to try it some time.

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



That's questionable, if you have the Thor/Hellion/Viking mix, it is not easy at all to stop. A 200/200 army with a Thor center will start to 2 volley carriers 0.0.


When charge is up hellions stop being that important, all zealots need to do is hit once, if you got enough warpgates you can just resupply indefinitely, some mix in some HTs as well, dunno why, but it seems to work nicely. Once hellions die zealots surround thors and it's over.

Except Thors 1 shot HT and 2 shot Stalkers and Zealots :|


They 2shot stalkers and zealots?

(note: this is not actually crying about imbalance, just mocking them protoss haters)

Sarcasm does not translate very well when typing on the internet, i would just play it safe and not talk about balance at all and just enjoy the great games that are sure to ensue. Mocking the "protoss haters" is just stupid

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

more like 50k

more like 64k.

And to not have them all get strike cannoned...


Range 5 vs Range 7 isn't all that good for the Immortal lol.

thor : immortal ratio being 2:1 didnt help either
When in doubt, just drone up.

Doesn't matter, you need a good warpgate number and a nicely placed warp field. Zealots are free (almost). Blink stalkers are also a good complement

Sick Thor play, I am starting to really like this Thorzain guy!

TSL is first big event I saw him playing in SC2 and I am following a lot of tourneys lately. Why isn't he joining more tournaments?



A friend of mine, who knows him from WC3 said he is busy studying chinese in the university, so he's having a hard time to play both SC2 seriously and studying fulltime -.-

30k. But people tend to be slow. I think we will see 45k when White Ra vs MC.

Curious if he will mech again. I have had alot of succes with mech on smaller maps (which includes Xel'Naga). Using Thors on Terminus is a nightmare though

Ahhh I just got home from an exam, missed the first game. Am I correct in assuming Thorzain is pursuing mech strategies so far?
