Was a pretty fun game once it came down to a base trade situation. Feel bad for KiWiKaKi though..didn't seem to play all that well in game 2. | ||

Anywy, that was pretty well played by Perfect. | ||

Well tosses were winning with 6 gate and stuff for so long that zergs have figured out the timings of taking that third and getting drones then making units. protoss players need to just stop doing that 6 gate its figured out now by top zergs from observing and playing. | ||

In which case you are unable to put on any pressure and are far behind in the midgame due to zerg's macro mechanic. I'm interested to see what will happen to the metagame to even this out, it seems like a huge problem for terran as well. Unfortunately protoss has much less versatile timings than terran to do anything. | ||

So far the only tournament where terrans did "bad" was the last MLG which a terran still won. As for zvp, protosses will figure something out they will go through a tough time for a little bit but they will work something out as toss does have a lot of options. | ||

MC went stargate against IdrA who already had a third down, had one queen there, saw it like ten seconds before it came, put down two spore crawlers and was infinitely ahead. Stargate is extremely hard to come ahead with, hard to secure a third after, and the response to stargate play is to hardcore drone anyway because no pressure will come afterward. lol anyway, back to the game discussion. the early ghost play a lot of people doing is interesting, MKP showed it's quite powerful against anything but very early colossi. | ||

Major opens 3rax no gas. Perfect goes 1gate core expo. Major pushes with rines, few scvs - set's up bunker and takes out Perfect expo. Perfect was supply blocked as Major moved out, and though he lost expo, Major doesn't push up Perfect's ramp that was guarded by only 1stalker 1 sentry (to Majors ~10 rines, few scvs). Major then salvages bunker and goes home. Perfect going into 4 gate. Major builds another CC in base during this, takes double gas, and put's addon's on a rax. Start's stim. However because stim started so late and take's forever, unless Perfect decides to wait for arbiters (yeah, intentional) to attack, stim won't be done. Major sets up 2 bunkers at his expo but doesn't have a lot of units (didn't add on beyond his 3 rax, set up addons), and loses to Perfects extremely zealot heavy 4gate. Decent FF cut's off repair to one bunker, Major has time to set up 3rd bunker, it also goes down. Perfect walks up Major's ramp. Overall Major teched up too fast - should have gone Korean terran style of adding on mass rax I think with may one only 1 tech lab. Go onto ~5rax? Frustrating game to see Major get so far ahead and still lose. Perfect hit good timing in that Major's expo advantage had not kicked in at all. Perfect ends game with ~1k more resources; not quite sure how. | ||
