Incontrol was behind the entire game, and most people were expecting him to lose, but then he's still alive...he's still alive...and just jumps massively ahead. It was ensnares game to lose, and lose it he did. | ||

Without forcefield and colossus Protoss might be held accountable for falling behind in games. Such a joke. As a terran you cannot get a factory that late and expect to win against toss it just wont work, and not getting ghosts until the after the decisive engagement is a smart move either. | ||

If you didn't see what happened, ensnare lead his army with his vikings when Inc lead his with his phoenix. The vikings went down quickly, when the MM and Colossus/stalker ball engaged, Inc threw down 7-8 perfectly timed forcefields which actually stopped about 70% of Ensnare's M+M ball from firing. Not even his stalker/sentry ball was in range of the ff'ed off M+M ball so Incontrol came out about 80 supply up. Thought this would help the people posting "LOLCOLOSSUSIMBA", "my joints hurt", and all that. | ||

Ensnare didn't do what Sjow did. It has nothing to do with any racial imbalance or crap like that, but instead the difference was in decision making. | ||

Terran has beefy units, like battlecruisers, thors, siege tanks, and they have AoE casters (Raven/Ghost). Ensnare had none of these when the engagement came, he didn't even have more than 2 vikings or medivacs to support the bio army. Bio is really really BAD in large numbers. It's good in middlish numbers, and pretty decent in smallish numbers. You NEVER want to max on pure bio and then attack in one big ball, just awful play. Toss can easily defend against ground based bio aggression on Tal'darim altar, this is true, but not against siege tank pushes (go watch TT1 vs. Marinekingprime in the GSL world championships), and also not easily against banshee play. | ||

Yeah, it should've been a BO loss but Gretorp was going on about how far behind iNc was, after his collosi production had already kicked in. 30 supply of infantry against FF/collusus is nothing. | ||

Ensnare didn't punish Incontrol for going so techy and let Inc macro up an unstoppable army. Worth throwing this out there. Going mass bio with 4-5 Vikings, and then attacking Pheonix with the vikings tends to lose to 6-7 Collosi. Ensnare made a LOT of mistakes. Incontrol capitalized on said mistakes. Has nothing to do with Balance. That, and Ensnare was 200 before Incontrol was 150, but just sat back doing nothing. | ||

Wait, so you're saying that you have to play different races... differently? QQing all over TL is simply not constructive in the least bit. | ||
