I was shaking with excitement during the last game, probably more than ThorZaIN himself!

This was like watching the world cup. ^_^

It's one thing to watch the game from a spectator's point of view and say "this player should've done this or that". It's another thing to be in the game playing.
And shame on you for insulting Thorzain after he won that series.

Great series! Specifically on the last game though, I was surprised with some of the decisions Nani made... He doesn't go +1 attack (and in fact wasn't a big fan of attack upgrades throughout the series) which really hurt his army. Colossi cost 500 combined resources and 6 supply and give you 18.2 dps (or assuming 3 targets a strike 54.6 dps) . +1a cost 200 combined resources and gives you a bonus 2.4 dps or counting splash of 3: 7.2 dps.

Therefore at one colossi your dps cost 27.4 / 9.15 resources per DPS.

Plus 1 attack cost you 83.3 / 27.7 (assuming just one colossi)

Plus 1 attack with two colossi on the field: 41.65 / 13.8

Plus 1 attack with three colossi on the field: 27.7 / 9.23

So pretty much once you reach 3 colossi...+1 pays for itself. And this doesn't count the supply cost of the colossi nor the benefits that the other protoss military units get from +1.

Nani, should have retreated once he killed those SCVs in the first volley and just teched up. Protoss is very strong on macro maps once they get blink/charge/forge upgrades/HT tech.

Thorzain on the other hand finally seemed to realize that marauders work so much better than tanks against protoss. Had he realized this earlier, Nani wouldn't have lasted to a game 7. Thors work against protoss...but not tanks. I suspect Thor was still in his tank mindset from his win over Kas.


On the other hand more Colossi tank more damage and don't lose DPS as fast when they start dying

I don't know if its fair to ban people for such posts. Yes, he's probably very wrong, ThorZain could even have some very good chances in Code S. But TL got a bit too hard with banning people.

People should be able to express their opinions as long as it isn't in a rude way. If they're wrong other people can tell them but its not fair to ban a person for such a harmless post in my opinion.

Just like Boxer picking the weakest race and becomes the master, Thorzain does the same and comes out winning TSL against all odds, as a Zerg, I am amazed of his skills. Terran isn't supposed to stand a chance on that map vs P, and he won. Sure, Chill's lag and Thorzain's nerves of ice made Naniwa lose a game he would have won 99 out of 100, but still, amazing match.

Wait what? Thorzain comes out winning as a zerg? Terran not standing a chance on that map? According to TLPD it's only 60% PvT.


'only' 60% is a lot.. a significant advantage.

lol talk about bitter.

No one is "clearly" the better player here

IT was an epic series and I think the great majoirty of people were glad to see Thorzain come out on top

If you're going to flame a player right after they win a tournament, you better very clearly and very eloquently defend your position. A one-liner will almost always get a ban in a LR thread, especially after the player wins.

no kidding.. a naniwa win was NOT pretty obvious, which is why he lost.. all other things aside.. sorry.

missed the games though, from the LR thread, sounded like a good series though.
