How do you get archons? HT can feedback thors, and storm both hellions and thors. Blink stalkers can be massed as well, and immortals can be added over time.

Because gretorp helped START the NASL and it's his damn prerogative to cast his own damn league. Fanatic fanboyism for Tastosis is waaaay more obnoxious than Gretorp's casting. It's not fanboyism for Tastosis, Gretorp is just shit shit shit. I'd rather they grab Gunrun or Diggity out of the crowd, or even that blonde girl for christ sakes. Gretorp is fine, you're just another angry nerd that doesn't find him funny. This is the first league he's ever cast for, the first time he's ever casted, he's a rookie and he did fucking fantastically for a rookie year of a new league. If you walked up to Gretorp, would you say 'Your casting, man, you are shit shit shit.' How would you feel if someone said that about something you did? You're not constructive at all. And Gretorp's a fucking human being and he reads forums so why don't you try being a little more constructive and a little less of a douchebag. He's a public figure that I'm paying $25 to cast, when you take money from people and give them crap in return, I don't think a little vitriol is unwarranted. I'm a shitty caster, but if I was casting NASL and doing a shit job and then preventing other better casters from casting, I wouldn't be surprised if people told me off for it. Are you so sure you're in the majority in your opinion that Gretorp is "crap"? Please don't point to other TL posts lambasting him as evidence for the majority. Also, is it really "vitriol" thats warranted when you don't like a caster in a league you paid for? The most unfiltered insults that people are willing to spit out behind teh anonymity of the internet? Or should there be constructive criticism? Yeah... Like I've said, I like Gretorp quite a bit, a lot of people seem to. He was a little rough at the start of the NASL, but he's gotten so much better, he can easily sit up there with Day9 and hold his own.
People really just need to realize that everyone has different taste in casters. I agree with you and think that Gretorp has gotten a lot better. Also, I know I am in the minority in that I can't stand Day[9] at all. But that doesn't mean I pitch a fit when he casts.

I said on Battle.net that the finals are going to end up being Puma vs. MC and it appears to be getting closer and closer to that prediction.

Getting outmacroed mostly I'd say losing his ghosts while MC was able to keep his archons really hurt select. Selects first emp was bad too, only hit like 2 stalkers. If he had hit the archons with both emp's I think Select wins the game at the 12 min push If he hit all the archons with both EMPS then yes but they were spread out so it was impossible. That's why emp isn't an answer to archons. Not a complete answer, but if he had better EMPs then the battle would have been much better for Select.

And when SeleCT's units weren't spread out the archons destroyed them. He made a bad timing, that's about it. Like KR said, it hardly ever works.

NASL subscriber trust is not excellent anymore.

Did anyone notice they changed the overlay at the top? I like it better now, it was clunky before and hard to read the food counts.

Honestly curious not a balance complain, ghosts take too long and aren't cost effective in dealing with them and too many marauders die to zealots. Go Boxer style with 8-9 Ghosts? He was crushing MC in fights but failed in macro and lost I don't think I would call that crushing in fights past being behind in food since one big fight where he lost and didn't really collapse farther past that. Zealots are expendable, and very strong. Did you actually watch the games? MC lost the fights like 3 times but he had such good macro that he was keeping up in supply anyway. Go watch the Vods if you aren't sure, I was talking about it to a few friends. Once you have enough EMP's to take out the Archons then it gets super hard for Protoss because it takes soo long to get the Archon count back up.
