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... -_-

I think it comes down to timing. As the thor numbers rise, you get in more and more trouble. As soon as he saw it, I think pumping out 2-4 immortals and just going in would have helped a lot. Mass thor is just silly if you let it get out of hand, which we just saw.


Chargelots are the most important unit in the composition. You need a good number of gateways and you need at least as many immortals as the terran has thors. BF hellions can't actually stop overwhelming zealot numbers.

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



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?

Er...no. Bad math is bad. +3 Thors 3 shot Zealots and Stalkers. Forgot that whole shields thing...


Thors used to 2-shot zealots and stalkers. They changed their damage to be faster firing, but retained the same DPS.

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


Yup. Game 1 consisting of THORzain making THORs and smashing face with them, basically.

Turns out Strike Cannon > Immortals.

Tyler with 10-gate-gas, places a pylon into his smoke wall. Thorzain with 1-rax-FE.

4:30
Tyler with Cybercore, and now making a second gateway. Thorzain makes gas-rax-gas. Bunkers his nat. Tyler with a Twilight Council behind the smoke wall in his main.

Thorzain getting stim, Tyler getting stim.

7:00
Tyler with 6 stalkers camping outside the terran nat.

Prozy pylon goes down, allowing warpins into the terran base. Blink stalkers pick off a marine and pressure the bunker.
ModeratorA dream. Do you have one that has cursed you like that? Or maybe... a wish?

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 -.-


He is studying Chinese, awesome. Thanks for update.
I hope I see Thorzain in a lot more tournaments soon or later, he seems to be awesome and interesting player to watch!
NUTELLA y u no make me skinny?!?
