.What I am not fond of is watching protoss play in general. It looks so bland, while zerg and terran (allthough not zvz) looks more complex from a viewer standpoint.

Stuff like immortals, colossi, void rays, etc. take too long to rebuild. Stalkers are the next-best thing to use against roach/BL. If you don't want to see mass stalkers vs. zerg in the late game, then the macro mechanics of either race need to be altered. Err. Blink stalkers are tier 2, and stalkers with 3/3 are also tier 2. So zerglings with adrenal glands are tier 3? Yes. It is actually. It's so fun with the tier system in SC2. Tiers give a false illusion that higher tier should always beat a lower tier which is not true, maybe for WC3 but not for SC. | ||

If you don't want to see mass stalkers vs. zerg in the late game, then the macro mechanics of either race need to be altered. He was making HT way too late, I agree about the Collosi, Immortal etc, but HT would have changed the face of that, or at least help out a little. It's surprising to see MC commit to an attack at that spinecrawler hill location too, he probably should have backed up to find a better opportunity or attack a different location. But hey, he's the progamer here. There are no warp-in storms. When zerg is on your doorstep, warping in HT's is almost the worst thing you could have made, after zealots. He would have had storms but he stared void ray production. After he saw a ton of hydralisks... He did Void Ray production because he saw that many Brood Lords, roaches, and overlords - that army was far more Roach-heavy than Hydra-heavy. Stop making it seem like it was incredibly obvious that MC did the completely wrong thing. | ||

Day9 has been inventing shit in SC2 since the beta like Muta.... BANELING!? but it all goes unappreciated for a stupidly long time for little reason. That being said, I suppose i could invent any combination and at some point the game would roll into it. Well but also he invents a lot of strats that in practice never work...like for example when he was on Kin of Tins he tried three times in a row a carrier rush and it just didnt work...but well, that said, hes still a genius :D | ||

If the ground army can be killed off then the broodlords have nothing to support them and then the blink stalkers can clean them up. I can't even tell if people are being serious, if you were watching the game and thinking that hts/archons wouldn't have helped... If he went Storm he would have a lower Stalker count. His Storms won't kill Broodlords or even hit them for that matter considering how far behind they were. When Storms start going down the Overlords get moved, you have to be retarded to lose Overlords to storm considering how much HP they have Oh dear god, storm tech on 3-4 bases! Unaffordable!! OH YES, THE OVERLORDS ARE THE PROBLEM HERE NOT THE GIGANTIC ROACH/HYDRA BALL WITH NO SENTRIES Yeah the perpetual 200/200 Supply Roach/Hydra ball, lets just get Sentries, Storm Archons and enough Gateway units to beat a Broodlord/constant 200/200 push that hits your base the moment you don't have the Stalker count to delay it Constant 200/200? MC was ahead after he won that first battle but he decided to try and end it rather than teching and securing his 4th. No god damn way is bboongbboong gonna be able to secure a 5th when he has to rely on 20 spinecrawlers for his 4th. No one is fucking saying he should have tech'd to templars when the push was coming after he lost a bunch of stalkers to spinecrawlers because he was overaggressive, but he could've tech'd to them so much earlier. The guy has god damn broodlords out and you are trying to say that templars are too far away to tech to? Do you even play this game? | ||
