Cant believe theres so much hate in these threads while we're so blessed with a wonderful event, with wonderful games. Last warning, whine and insult the players or commentators? See you.

guys.. he gets charge he wins 100%, he loses it he loses 100%

Exactly, that´s why he shouldnt have put his twilight in such an exposed position and he should have been much more active about saving it. Whitera knew this, he probably just wasnt focusing on that at the moment.

I think Whitera was the better player in both that game and over all but there´s gotta be some element of luck for the game to be exciting. GG Select, you won this one.

Well that was sad. There was no reason White-Ra should have lost that Twilight. He saw the drops killing the pylons, why not defend?


Because of the terran army in the middle of the map, if he defended, the terran army in the middle can very well take out the gold expo


And that's better than losing your charge. For sure. Most P builds like this don't even get the expo until after you have charge. Lose charge and you just die (as we saw).

It had nothing to do with luck. Select was aggressive when he created a weakness after stopping the first charge upgrade. White-Ra played BADLY by not using any chrono boost from his 3rd nexus, didn't catch the other two nexuses. If he used those chrono boost on either charge or the colossus he had that won easily.

100% bad play from white-ra losing him the game.

Nice games from Select. All the rest of the remaining rounds should be exciting, but that 4 man Korean Semis is most impressive.

White-Ra got really lucky that last game.

Select built two bunkers fearing aggression while White-Ra ended up taking a quick third instead.

How is select lucky? He knew whitera was going for charge because of the zealot count and didnt have it yet so he targeted down the council. I dont see how that is luck.


I find it hard to take that question seriously.

I'm so sad now. It annoys me that these players like tod and whitera and tyler can have such amazing runs but literally get nothing for it at the end of the day. I feel this format could really use some changes.

Not sure why people are trying to downplay his victory. Games are won and lost by the largest and finest of margins. What we saw was an example of a clutch drop timing and great micro by SeleCT to avoid the zealots and target fire the tech structure. Not as easy as it looks to get the stop and fire timing perfect. If SeleCT had of mis microed by a fraction, the research would of completed.

The ebb and flow of games are dictated in this manner all the time; why should we come to this realisation now just because our favourite player lost?

Please people...

Full credit to SeleCT for the win and BL to White-RA. Hoping for GG"s next game.
I see the want to in your eyes.

Terran is actually a fucking joke. How can Blizzard watch this game and think it's balanced? 3 base Protoss with a gold losing to a 2 base terran.

Thanks Blizzard.

are you kidding? I am literally so sad right now b/c Whitera lost but don't say it was balance. It was pure greed. He didn't make units for like 2mins while transitioning to colossi.

I was actually screaming at my computer for him to make some units for like 45 seconds.

Gawd i feel so emo FML

I still <3 u whitera

he wasnt lacking in units though, when the fight started outside his gold he was at 134 supply with select barely over 100, army was probably about the same... he just needed the upgrade to finish to be honest. If his chronoboosts weren't perfect then thats what lost the game (or he could have just defended the drop but thats a guessing game really). He was definitely making units the whole time I just checked the rewind with my HQ pass. Problem is zealots are completely useless without charge and without forcefield

Not a surprise though. Makes me feel sick tbh.

I'm a huge fan of Ra, but the first thing you say after such a game is that it was incredibly tight for that charge upgrade to not finish, it's the biggest thing in the game so you mention it first.
SeleCT did play great.
It appears I have been chosen.

Yeah, i've got black screen atm, even after refresh attempts. Also, for some reason, several times throughout the game it would jump backwards 30 secs-1 minute or so.

A bit annoying, but hopefully it'll be resolved soon.

This. Why is no one blaming White-Ra for moving out to try and take out a third of SelecT's army which could fit into the medivac anyway? He got a marauder kill out of it.

Sure SelecT was a bit lucky, but luck is a huge part of this game. White-Ra pretty much played so greedy with the double expand that was scouted pretty quickly by SelecT.


Defend the drop stim those units and snipe the gold.


Then don't bring your entire army to defend the drop in the main? Lol... not hard


You need your entire army to defend your gold.

Not hard.


At the time there was only a medivac's worth of units near the gold

I am a WhiteRa fan but his fan boys need to chill out, Select out played him in both games. The better player won today.


lol, come on. i think it was pretty clear that the third game could have gone either way and was largely decided by the citadel being sniped before charge completed. and that snipe was definitely 'variance' because it could have gone either way
