Idra and Whitera's stream sometimes get more viewers, yet have no issues.

I know. But the dropoff is only so noticable because he's SO ridiculously knowledgeable about zerg. His commentary there, despite the bias, is actually amazing. But with PvT (or PVP and TVT I'm sure) it's pretty average. With people like day[9], husky, or Artosis I don't notice as much. And I love all of them too btw, I'm not hating. Just interesting


Very true, besides the husky part anyway

Welp, despite my earlier praise for the improvements, this is pretty much unacceptable when the EG Master's Cup is going on at the same time.

Sorry NASL, looks like they win this round - I'll catch more games of you tomorrow.

50 supply's worth of immortals would not kill 200/200 mech. I think Gretorp was exaggerating, and Idra just didn't want to argue. Although, mech is less viable after the patch due to thors being countered by HTs.



If they where spaced out and there wasn't any ghosts out then yeah they would.

but the problem is that there is and they never are. The counter to Mech is protoss air. You can't go wrong with 20 void rays and 3 carriers.


Even then they wouldn't because Thors do relatively well vs. Immortals. 250mm pre-patch devastated Immortal groups.

Protoss air is countered by vikings, so 200/200 mech should really be played with either marines or vikings.


Not quite, carriers are actually cost effective against vikings, and your void rays can go in after the intercepters launch (get some phoenix too to tank/dps vikings and lift tanks).


I've never seen carriers used effectively against mech. Yes it's possible, no I haven't seen it done. Theoretically speaking, if carriers counter vikings, then carrier colossi (or carrier HT) should ripe apart all Terran armies (since then the only tool Terran would have vs. carriers are marines) but I've never seen it work.



It probably does, but it's nearly impossible to obtain a 200/200 carrier/colossi army. Similar to a 200/200 tank/viking army or 200/200 broodlord/corrupter army

Artosis is obviously better than most people posting. I don't think anyone would deny that.

However, considering his commentary on other players (e.g. 90% of Code A season one, most of whom I'd say showed better games than his NASL performance) I think he deserves some ribbing. It's almost all good natured; almost everyone making fun of him is a fan. You can't expect a player to play so badly (by pro standards, and this is supposed to be a pro league) and not have people comment on it.


you hit it right on the head I think. Hes better then probably all the people in this thread its just he spends so much time with the pros and he wants to be a pro so we just bash him for it.

and stream dies again ;(


Yea no. He is not even top Masters, and ladder experience versus him tells me he is quite weak. There are plenty of casuals like myself who are flat out better than him.




Whaaat?
Artosis is too top masters, dunno what ur smoking. You must have improved for you to now be better than him.

Just a thought I had, but maybe Artosis intentionally played poorly in his game against Vibe. Artosis could have recognized that he had very little or no chance at the NASL playoffs, and decided to literally "take one for the team" to increase Vibe's chance. I don't know, he hasn't played very well in any NASL match, but against Vibe he seemed to play especially poorly (by pro standards).

Master's Cup went down as well though. One coming up before the other doesn't eliminate the possibility that this is on JTV's end.

Basic summary or TLO vs Grubby G1 until the stream crashed for me

+ Show Spoiler +
TLO vs Grubby G1

Crevasse

TLO spawns top left, Grubby Spawns bottom right

TLO opens 12rax while Grubby gets 14gate.

Tlo doesn't get his gas while Grubby does.

Grubby doesn't make a zealot after his core as TLO starts his expansion CC.

A 2nd+3rd barracks from TLO starts as warp gate and Grubby's expansion start.

TLO also takes both his Gasses while Grubby is still on only one.

TLO starts 3 tech labs, on each of his barracks.

Grubby adds 3 more gateways as the research finishes.

Tlo is going for a 3rax marauder build.

Grubby starts a robotics bay after seeing the marines at TLO's ramp.

The marauders and marines move forward and as they take over the tower TLO starts a third CC.

TLO starts his factory and Engineering bay as Stim researches.

Grubby starts his robotics bay and a Starport starts for TLO.

Grubby wastes a forcefield to kill 1 marauder.

Another 3 forcefields are wasted on another single marauder.

Collosi and range start, as well as a protoss third nexus and a forge.

Both players continue to macro up, supplimenting their armies with attack upgrades.

A ghost acadamy starts for TLO as well as another CC.

TLO drops at the natural of Grubby but zealots are warped in and defend.

Grubby starts to attack into the middle but can't advance as TLO as dug himself in with bunkers and tanks.

TLO drops grubbyb again as the destructible rocks outside TLO's thir are taken out.

A templar archives starts for Grubby and the stream crashes again...


I'm out.

200/200 mech terran army is the strongest deathball in the game, no way 50 supply kills it, unless it's 25 DT's and you didn't bother getting detection.

immortals?


Immortals are good against small mech groups, once you get a mid-sized or large mech army, immortals become virtually useless. Siege tanks just bring them down too quick, and hellions tank all their damage (and hellion groups bring their shields down quick too). Not to mention thors, which actually beat immortals 1v1 not counting strike cannon. Hell, having 25 immortals (100 supply worth of pure immortals) would do almost nothing.

Nope, your wrong.

wannaBe outplays this protoss all game. He wins in the end but watch how his army gets decimated time and time again.
Hell, its awesome to LOSE to nukes!

Artosis really isn't that type of guy to do that.
