They are always way behind on maps :D


Coming right up: Nerchio VS WhiteRa game two on Steppes of War! Followed by Delta quadrant! Mwhahahahahaha!

(Z)Nerchio vs. (P)White-Ra on Shattered Temple, Game 2, Nerchio is up 1-0.

White-Ra spawning top left, Nerchio, top right.

2:00
15 pool 16 hatch for Nerchio.

In-base gateway for White-Ra (not on the ramp :o).

Why? Toss players whine far less about balance even when having a hard time esp vs zerg lately. Rotterdam plays toss at a high level and knows the shortcomings.

He's done it since the first time I heard him cast (when protoss won every single televised game vs. zerg). Although I think he's just trying to be funny, it's annoying.

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?


How? Four gate is retarded nowadays, and you'll just get roach/ling all-inned when you try to take a nexus. I don't think I ever play PvZ close positions without getting all-inned and it's so hard to hold when the units are there in a moment.


Imo protoss has the best measures for holding FE, FF/cannons/VR etc


Not going to have many forcefields and even if a voidray manages to pop up, they're not especially good versus mass speedlings in your base. I think close positions is just stupid for all races in general.

Nah, Much is uncle toss. BBQ toss is drieven first but he just not as active now as he was in BW day. And if you watch HSC2 White-Ra made the best BBQ for the whole house full of people so I think its kind of fair to nickname him BBQ toss or grandpa toss!

Incineration zone?

Someone should host a showmatch/for fun tournament with junk maps like Steppes + Desert/ + ncineration + that one island map

Should make for some entertaining games.

1 gate expand for White-Ra into 3gate.

Nerchio holds off 1 zealot pressure very well.

Why Justin is bad for EU ? I never had problems whit it.. get better internet connection not some crappy one , btw Justin has started Twit.TV some time ago , and its even better , so pls stop lie.


can confirm this, always wathing JTV on 1080+, no problems AT ALL.

It has nothing to do with connection I have a good one and yet justin.tv is sometimes baaad. Own3d works always perfectly for me even in the highest resolutions. But it seems the justin.tv problems are not really in Europe in general but in some parts of it or maybe ISPs or something.

It is no lie, justin.tv is the only streamig service I have problems with.
My connection is great.
Stop calling people liers if you dont know the background.



LOL , if 5-10 person have problems whit something , and like 100 dont have , its mean that something is wrong? I have 5 mb connection and i dont have any problems hiw Justin EVER , my friends also .
One time i saw that some ppl in NL have problems whit it , but i was serwer problem and they fix it very fast . Anyway , stream issues are not only for connetcion speed , but also quality of the connection , you may have some blocked ports , have a mess in internet configuration etc

Dont blame justin for yours problems.. if 90% ppl watching Justin have no problems from EU ofc. and its a fact .
