Really low standard from both players. Poorly thought out Marine rush by Kas and Mana almost lost the counter attack through not microing his stalkers properly and not bringing a probe for a proxy to warp in across the map. Some very questionable play in general.


yeah thank god, someone else isn't praising mana's micro to high heavens, anyone can micro like that, it's really really simple.


Don't worry, the bronze leaguers who post in LR threads are impressed by anything. It was just a sloppy game from both players.

no
really no

you miss the subtle things
mana scouted that entire thing with a sacrificial stalker because he suspected this exact strat, including scouting the no gas
he makes a sentry or two and camps them up at the ramp in case kas brings all his scvs, in which case mana can sack his expansion and FF the scv/marines
he uses not all but some of his stalkers to delay/whittle down the marines on the way
he then goes for a counter right before the 3rd goes up and the other 4 rax finish
i do agree that he lost 2-3 stalkers unnecessarily
but his handling the situation was extremely well done

but i guess any player can do it assuming they've come across the same exact strat many times over

12 rax no gas, yeah good idea kas O____O


actually he took out socke earlier today with thyat build quite easy


didn't see those games, but even a gold player can micro sufficiently to kill that strategy.

maybe need plat to keep reinforcing with stalkers, but thats about it, insanely cheesy from kas

More importantly, Mana saw the 4 rax without any gas taken so he knew it was on the cards. If he had just gone robo off 3/2 gates, he would've been dead no matter how good his micro is.


No gas rushes can be held off without scouting and good micro, f.e. MC held it off with almost no problems. Against such a fast FE any good player will start chronoing stalkers to harass the shit out of it, and as long as you don't see a single marauder, you don't have to see the 200 rax with no addons in the main, you just keep on killing marines for free. If he puts down bunkers his timing is gone anyway.

This build = dumb and doesn't work against a P who knows what he's doing and has micro

If you think it's too hard there are solutions other than asking for a nerf, getting better is the first that comes to mind.

The biggest fail was him not bringing a probe with him for a proxy, that almost cost him an unlosable game.

While I am an easily impressed and awful master league player who could do something similar against an equally bad player, I still find it entertaining to watch. It doesn't have to be difficult to make for a good show. Seeing Kas fall in such a convincing fashion at least left me in a shock.
