Isn't there any sound proof booths? Judging by the echo from the commentators I would imagine the players could hear them.... Pretty disappointing, I hope I'm wrong tho.

Game 3, TSLKiller v dSellect, Terminus Re

Killer at 3 o'clock, Select at 12, close air.

Killer going 15 nexus again because why the fuck not. Select scouting him first.

3:15
Select places a SICK bunker with very little open surface area while rallying marines. Marine gets into the 50 hp bunker and scv starts repairing! 2 rines in at 4:30

How is it irrelevant? It's not like I'm struggling in low plat and throwing random factoids around or something. I have enough game experience to know that when going nexus first, you will have so many units after the 7-8 minute mark if unpunished that a 1/1/1 push is absolutely worthless.

Some things are relevant regardless of the skill levels IMO. Personal experience might not apply, but this is a fact: 15 nexus must be punished, or replied to by strong macro. Not by a late timing.

Balance whining is never appropriate with non pro games as a background, especially not in an LR thread. Blizz already caters maps to "ladder players" do you want it balanced around them to?

Just watch the game and be thankful for the great stream
