You're retarded. He went for a fast expo without robo, qxc went banshees with cloak. Game was over then and there and Adel just hung on with good micro and multitasking.
The amount of bushleague comments from people who couldn't barely break diamond about how "bad" these amazing players are doing... Just keep it to yourself please. Adel's micro was great to hold on.. but not researching charge or thermal lance, slow on upgrades and was floating 1200 minerals before qxc took out his pylons and warp gates is pretty bad. Granted he was trying to defend a harras but had his cannon placement been better ut wouldn't have been nearly as hard.. And wasn't qxc floating 1800 at a point? -___-
When he dropped 8 mules on his fourth and was at 70+ workers he floated it for a moment(before adding production facilities and laying down another production cycle), as opposed to almost constantly being over 1k with 46 workers across 3 bases...
Regarding Adel not being prepared for banshees, just look at TT1's excellent gateway unit build for something that takes these things into account. He knows there may be banshees, he knows that they can cause havoc against a gateway build if unchecked, so he scouts and if he's suspicious he lays down cannons for detection in his mineral lines. There's no reason to not have accounted for the possibility in your build.

I always like seeing CC/Nexus first builds, makes for an interesting midgame.

He might have been I didn't keep an eye on his mineral count only on adel's because last game he was floating over 1k as well. and for someone who is supposed to be a great macro player, floating 1k+ on 2 bases not maxed isn't exactly optimal.....
And to the idiots saying "Durr you wouldn't last again qxc so you should shut up" you're right I wouldn't hold on as long as Adel did or play as well as qxc but I don't play constantly im not a PROgamer key word there is pro! people criticize all athletes even when they can't do what they do, because even when you can't do it you can still easily see when they are doing it wrong!

QXC with his trademark early stim. Factory thrown down. No conc-shells yet. Adel has a robo, getting an obs. Lot's of chrono saved up, possibly for the RoboBay being made.
QXC now with a Starport and EngiBay making, Combat Shields researching. 3 gas only taken for Adel, with 5 gates.

He could easily placed a robotics facility. EASILY. I really hate "blind playing". Qxc could have went mass battlecruisers, I wonder when Adelscott was going to scout..
He took a gamble and cut a corner by not building a robo. It turns out that lost him the game because qxc went 1-1-1 cloak banshee. If qxc had done any other build adel would've been fine. Was it a mistake that cost him the game? Yes.
Is he a terrible player for cutting that corner? I don't think so. I prefer a safer style but Adel's never been cookie cutter and you don't beat someone like MVP by playing safe/standard.
My main point was that people are obsessing over cannon placement or the drop defense or the high minerals etc, when none of those things really matter. He lost the game long long before that. Qxc had 2/2 vs adel and he could have killed him with raven reaper thor battlecruiser if he wanted to.

Wouldn't expect anyone to have perfect macro with that type of marauder/banshee harass anyways. x)

I think Adelscott is in a good position with the builds. 5-gate plus chronoed colossi should be effective against the MMM timing QXC's going.
|
is the stream lagging for anyone else?
|
Adels macro seems pretty nice this game.. I think it's QXC pressure that makes him slip (no pressure this game)

Both players take their 3rd base. QXC moves out with his bio force, scan sees the first collosus come out. QXC starts work on the double rocks leading to Adel's base. He pokes and sees the Protoss army and moves back. He stim kites the army and takes out a few units.
Adel attacks the rock at the Terran main ramp and then sits there making a contain.

All the criticizers would get crushed by AdelScott. I am obviously no where at the level that he his, but I know that dealing with the constant pressure/ harassment / drops style is very difficult to deal with and throws off your game timing completely. It is very powerful. Not to mention that it screws with your mind going into the next game.
I am aware that people are overreacting while expecting every game to be full of epicness and when games disappoint they start to randomly criticise and point bad stuff they saw, but you two are also "retarded" but on different charge, just think before jump on to flaming people who comment about bad moments in games.
Let's just fire all famed and respected movie critics because they didn't make "The Godfather'-quality alike movie before they started working as critics? Yeah right.
