I bet you can make that judgement based on a few interviews! What if hes just camera shy? Is not "socially awkward" when hes talking on vent etc (See tl attack!) | ||

Dont really know though. The 1-1-1 build that has been having mild success in the GSL is not what Tarson did. He did a cloaked banshee into a marine/tank push with (unfortunately) bad timing and execution. | ||

Something needs to be cut out of that and he cut the raven (and forgot siege mode). No. The raven is not needed and certainly puts more hurt on your timing. If you want to add a raven you either build a raven first which hurts your banshee count or you build it after your first banshee (no cloak btw) to have enough energy when you push. The thing is that against a raven the push overall is weaker and the Protoss can force a fight and a PDD before his natural anyways. As already mentioned if you just deal a bit of damage with your first banshee and than slowly push with siege and mass marines at his natural. You focus down stalkers with banshee/siegetank. Even if he cuts your army in half , the power of the forcefield is nearly nullified since tanks have enough range to stand behind and rain hell on stalkers while marines can focusfire the zealots. The most common mistake in execution is to lose the banshees because they rush ahead or lose your high marine count due to own tank-fire, because lots of players don't seem to target stalker/sentry with the tanks. It was just plainly bad executed as much as I like Tarson. Cloak is in my opinion just a lot weaker and naniwa already did him a favor adding immortals which are utterly shit usually against a well played 2-1-1 allin. Naniwa otherwise did it completely right with adding huge stalkercounts and 5-6 gateways. | ||

Dont really know though. It's certainly used a lot more in Korea. I vaguely remember watching one of the up and down groups which was full of Protosses and Terrans, and all the Protoss lost to that build at least once. It was used about 5-6 times that day alone. Poor Tassadar lost to it 3times and even scouted it minutes before it came haha. There could certainly be a way of holding it but i'm just yet to see someone hold it when it's executed properly. | ||

I'm sure nAni thinks ThorZaIN is the better player, and he was being mannered not saying that. Stop hating. wtf is up with this guy saying nani has no social skills based on interviews meant to be seen/read by thousands of people? Do you know Nani IRL and speak to him in Swedish on a regular basis? Complete bullshit. | ||

No of course not, he basically avoided the question in a good way and answered something generic. Pfff... | ||

It's funny that when Idra says shit exactly like this people drool all over him, Naniwa gives a very sensible and empathic answer and people say he doesn't have social skills. | ||

He said "all terrans the same to me, except they have difference in style but if i do my best i am confident i can win 2-0" That's what he said. Why is that answer wrong and reeks of 0 social skill to you? No difference whatsoever to what you said. | ||
