gratz to nani!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my 2nd favourite protoss going to blizzcon


Not rly, its just the mechanics of the toss race, when u can build 30 supply instantly.


its the same as reactor buildings and 15 barracks and cheaper units... that can beat tier 3.


Well Terran high tech Units suck , no reason to complain about low tech units when the high tech units are just no alternative to them.

You're right, Terran's high tech units are so bad that nobody turtles to tier 3 on 1 base to do an all-in


The timing for a 1-1-1 fairly thin, as tarson showed today. Tanks/banshees/ravens, they all pretty much lose their value after the one single timing that works.


Tarson forgot siege mode, didn't cloak his banshee's after he picked off an observer (which after that he had quite alot of time to do damage before Naniwa's two other obs came over), and did he really have a raven?


Not my point. All I ment was that, yea, there is a specific timing that utilizes some high-tier units and it can be very strong indeed, but that doesn't mean that the units are actually a viable option in the matchup.

There is only 1 TvP unit mixture that remains useful during the entire game, and it's MMMVG. Everything else pretty much gets rolled completely.

One of the games lasted about 30 seconds, another had the stream as a close up of an extremely pixelated dwarf's face for a minute or 2. It was pretty dreadul. Plus the standard DC issues.

really? source?


Pretty sure it's BS. I remember nani saying on SoTG that he and Thorzain were great friends and looked forward to going out to Korea together. The hate is obviously bigger between ret and nani.

Rivalry is about the games, winning records and the quality of games, not about disliking each other.

But yeah, Nani vs Ret is a pretty good one too.


Eh, when there's bad blood it makes a rivalry more interesting.

Some basic terminology:

AMS - Anti-Magic Shell, Death Knight skill. Creates a shield that lasts 5 seconds (or 50% of the Death Knight's health, which is around 60k HP) that prevents CC and reduces incoming magic damage by 75%.
AMZ - Anti-Magic Zone, Death Knight skill. Creates a big purple bubble that lasts 30 seconds that reduces spell damage to friendly members inside it by 75%. Lasts a certain amount of HP before it disappears.
Lichborne - Death Knight skill. Makes the Death Knight Undead, which makes him immune to charm, fear and sleep effects. Also allows him to heal himself with Death Coil.
Fear - Warlock skill, caused by Fear, Death Coil and Howl of Terror. Forces anyone hit by it to wander around, unable to attack or cast or control their character until it wears off or they are attacked.
Sheep - Polymorph, Mage skill. Turns the target into an animal, where they regenerate their HP quickly, but are unable to cast skills, attack or control their character. Breaks on damage.
Hex - A polymorph-type skill, Shaman skill. Does the same thing as Polymorph except it doesn't regenerate their HP.
Counterspell - Multiple spells cause this. Interrupts the current spell being cast and makes it so the person who is counterspelled cannot cast spells from that school (e.g. a Mage who has his Frostbolt counterspelled cannot cast Frost spells for a certain amount of time).
Trinket - A 2-minute cooldown item that breaks any sort of crowd control (Hex, Fear, Sheep, Silence, etc.) on you.


If I'm not mistaken, the finals are Shadowcleave (Shaman, Death Knight, Warlock) vs. Wizardcleave (Shaman, Mage, Warlock) so anything listed before is still relevant. This is for people who haven't played WoW before. I can't guarantee the quality of the matches, as I personally don't think WoW is a great spectator sport, but just in case you want to know what the hell the commentators are talking about.


To add to this.
Tunneling - Attacking one person to the exclusion of anyone else.
Teleport - Warlocks gave an ability to place a portal anywhere they're standing and teleport to it, makes the best appearance in multi level arenas.
Line of Sight - to use a spell your character must see the opponent's character, that's why theres pillars to block line of sight.


Line of sight always struck me as one of the weirder aspects of WoW PvP, such that the game was effectively balanced around people running around pillars and such. PvP became Pillar vs Pillar lol.


Indeed especially with Resto Druids, but WoW PVP needed a way to deter tunneling a healer without him having a chance so they came up with line of sight. I think there could of been better ways to go about it but sadly it's what has stuck now.

Ret has always been so RTS talented since BW, he just had hard times being constantly motivated so he didn't play that much continuously.
