|
lol Fan favorite White_rA vs..... drewbie.
|
Drewbie will win! Underdog fighting! But in reality I think Ra should take it 4-1.
|
It will be nice to see a protoss this week ^^
|
Drewbie gonna pull his destroy CC tactic!!!! GO WHITE-RA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Looking forward to casting this series! Spread the word! Dr. White-ra will be in the house! A rematch from the mainstage of MLG Anaheim
|
Whitera 4-1. drewbie better play amazingly or it'll be a 4-0 :D
|
Yes! White-Ra!! 4-1 or 4-2 I don't think White-Ra will play at his max but he will win nonetheless.
|
It would be so awesome to see them playing on Desert Oasis. I hated it, but it was fun to watch pro gamers on this map.
Gogogo White-Ra and Drewbie!
|
Event is tonight! Starts in about 5 hours!
|
Stream is Live Guys and Gals! The action starts in just 25 minutes! So, grab your popcorn and beverage of choice and tune in for a rematch from the main stage of MLG Anaheim!
|
Due to an unfortunate misunderstanding, White-ra was forced to forfeit Game #1 To Drewbie. Drewbie currently up 1-0! Tune in to check out the rest of the games
|
How did the first games go??
|
wow drewbie is destroying white-ra, didn't expect that.
|
A week or two ago, I would have said that White-ra is heavily favored to win this, no problem.
However, after watching Drewbie's recent practice on the Korean server, I'm not so certain. It's really hard to root against White-ra, but I'm gonna go with Drewbie on this one.
|
White-Ra playing way too risky.
|
Drewbie killing White-ra's natural with 2 bunkers, a marine and some marauders. Now Drewbie has a significant lead, White-ra going for 4 gates and double expo after Drewbie returns to his base
don't know if that's a good idea, Drewbie could roll over him before his expos kick in
|
Lol this is basically a lost game for whitera.
|
wow White-ra outmacroing Drewbie like a boss. nice drop denying the armor upgrade, but he killed White-ra-s fast expand and didn't do anything with the advantage, now he is behind.
|
GO White-Ra! I really thought Drewbie had this game won, nice defend.
|
lol caster saying beautiful storm 3 times while drewbie pretty much dodged every storm
drewbie needs something else than marines to deal with archons, speed zealots and ht's
|
what a retarded attack. drewbie attacking 10 ghosts and 20 marines into a bunch of archons and zealots and ht's
blue flame helions would be pretty good now
|
Drewbie has improved alot.
Wasn't long since he got totally smashed by White-ra and others in the "Drewbie vs Europe" showmatches. Now he's bossing White-ra pretty hard.
|
gg drewbie.. really liking the new bio composition from terrans in tvp with more marines .. with good ghost micro it kickass..
|
Drewbie nuking White-Ra like a boss.
|
wow drewbie manages to beat whitera convincingly with mass marine vs mass speed zealot+ plenty aoe damage. what's up with white-ra
|
Wowowow Drewbie up 3-0! 1 Game from white-ra losing!

If you're talking about White-ra's supply lead, I think that's because he was going very Zealot heavy and zealots are cheap two supply units. Also, Drewbie was investing a lot more into upgrades at the time.
But yeah, White-ra got back into that game with the double expand, Drewbie scouted it a little late and the risk paid off for White-ra. Shortly after though, Drewbie's harass just slowed White-ra down and after that failed counter-attack, the cloaked ghosts were just the nail in the coffin.

yeah you're right but i feel like Drewbie had a small window where he could just straight up roll over him. but well he won anyway

From what I've seen, Drewbie generally likes to advance his lead and aim for some key timings along the way as opposed to attempting to be incredibly aggressive and punishing his opponent. In this case, it let White-ra get back in the game because he didn't scout the third. It made for a pretty good game overall though, so no complaints.
|
drewbie caught off guard by dt's in the main. too bad because he scouted the whole ting
|
Drewbie killing a lot of units with marines and 1-2 ghosts but white-ra's macro is too far ahead
|
drewbie with zero vikings vs 5 colossi, this looks pretty much over for drewbie
|
Well I just saw something I wish I didnt...

No I saw that the last replay was fake
|
it doesn't seem worthwhile to tech to HT so early, stronger early gateway / upgrade intensive seems much safer than early HT but i guess im no pro protoss x.x
|
Restream for EU will be tomorrow at 11:30 am EDT!
|
|
|
Max, we'll post them tomorrow after the EU stream
|
EU Restream is live! matches start in about 30
|
White-ra fighting <3
So glad they do a restream

It's said a lot, but the "beautiful EMPs!" every time gets a bit old. Ghosts are really quite good vs protoss.

It's not very different from "beautiful forcefields" or "great fungal growths", they're all just spells that are sort of required to contend with opposing armies.

It may not have been clear but I was using EMP as a stand-in, I could have just as easily used fungal/storm. FF requires a bit more finesse.
