Z can do so many more early game all ins than Protoss, makes absolutely no sense. If all, close positions are bad for P, not for Z.

ridiculous choice by blizzard, fucking retarded to have close spawn positions. fucking disgrace


Z HAS to all-in when protoss takes nexus that early.


What a myth.

Why in the hell are close positions allowed? Don't mean to whine, but honestly Blizz? Does blizz think close pos on ST are completely fine, but they admit to Metal being stupid in close pos (v_v)...

Seems Blizz is kind of faar behind GSL in terms of maps really.

Well, going forge first on a map with that wide of a ramp with clos positions enabled is pretty god damn risky. You can say all you will about close positions, but white-ra lost that game cause of greed more than anything else.

No he would have easily defended if he was watching the walloff and put a pylon to block the entrance in time.

Not blizzard.

Think about it this way. If Whitera didn't scout that Roach Warren, he would have died anyway. Close position is fucking stupid. That's enough whining from me though.

GOGO Whitera I believe you can turn this around!


I'll give you that :D

Hope whitera can turn it around :/


Isnt close position super advantageous to protoss?

White-ra did a greedy and poorly executed FE and got punished for it.
There is no rest in the dark realm.

Looked like he was planning on it way before the nexus went down first.

Didn't they use MLG Metalopolis in the Ret vs Tarson series? Why aren't they using the tournament version of shattered temple then? It makes no sense.

but that's not unlucky, that's his mistake


also im pretty sure the roaches could have hit the gateaways and core out of range of the cannons


No, they were 3 hexes behind, so with 7 range they would have hit the roaches just barely

That is more accurate imo, even though close pos is kind of stupid. White-Ra's wall made no sense to me.

Having a great time watching, and the stream quality is top notch. But why are they using close pos? I know its a Blizzard event, so are they trying to legitimize close spawns? Everyone agrees close spawns are silly for tournament level play. In my opinion it delegimitizes the tournament.

You miss the point . Its Battle.net turnament , for end of sezon 2 , they play on ladder sezon 2 maps.
