So according to this live report there is no possible way for Protoss to win a single game against Terran, ever, regardless of what they do.

Understood.

Guild Wars 2 looks so fucking good, can't wait for it =D

It's unbelievable how much it looks like WoW, with those elves walking down that path, it was the exact same path & surroundings as in Teldrassil, like 100% the same.


Some info from Wiki-pedia:
Jeff Strain is a game programmer and one of the three founders of ArenaNet. He served ArenaNet and NCsoft as the leader of the Art and Production teams and President of Product Development respectively. He was previously the lead programmer of Blizzard's MMORPG World of Warcraft; he also created the StarCraft campaign editor and worked on Diablo and Warcraft III. He is credited as a programmer and executive producer for Guild Wars.

Now back to Socke vs DieStar
Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not. 파이팅! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ"

Why's the hall so empty ?


Because no one wants to watch cheesy overpowered Terran all ins.

What was so overpowered there? SeleCT went for a 4 rax rush against nexus first. Killer holding that off would've been overpowered. If a terran goes CC first on the low ground, and dies to a 4 gate rush/baneling bust, would you be whining about imbalance?


Do you have any idea why a professional, intelligent sc2 player would do this kind of risky build three times in a row blindly? If he didn't do it, he would have 100% lost to 1-1-1 terran all in. that's why he had to blindcounter it, otherwise it would have been straight up 2-0 for terran


Get ur head out of ur ass. Killer actually won the game where SeleCT went for the 1-1-1. Impossible to counter? I think not.

Let him revel in all the QQ he wants. Whatever keeps you sane right?

Not saying the whine is correct but you can NOT use that game as an example lol, SeleCT failed epicly there by not having a bunker, and lost all his marines lol.
It appears I have been chosen.

Killer said he figured 15 nexus was ok because he'd be all right as long as Select didn't find him 1st with the SCV scout but unluckily he did find him 1st twice.

The same thing i wanted to say.
And now, please, please in heavens earth stop talking about imbalance bullshit.....It is so annoying to read thru this LR-Thread.....

yes, because he went nexus first. with any other build you lose. period.


Which is so weird, a week ago people were saying you had to absolutely go 1 base fast collosi to hold it off, and fast expand automatically meant you lost.

I don't think the Select v Killer game showed anything. Killer won it because he was able to delay the push.....that's all you have to do vs 1-1-1. Delay it and you win.

What good player has ever done 1base anything against 1-1-1? You get contained and die horribly.

Killer was able to beat the push because he'd had an expansion up for so long, not because he delayed it. Without the expo he would've been delaying it with zero units at home and would've died horribly.

to be fair sangho was already way ahead after select forgot the bunker, and the push was delayed. It was not a good game to learn if this 1-1-1 is beatable or not...
No matter how hot it gets, sooner or later there's a cool breeze coming in.

I don't. Day9 has really dropped really low lately and I can barely stand listening to him. Quite a huge change from favorite caster to barely listenable...

Spot on. No need to try and shift any metagame, just either put down ur weapons and leave, or blindly go nexus first every single time. Yep.

Or delay the push and win. Oh hey!

Yeah, because that's totally what people are saying. They're not discussing a specific set of builds that have been highly prevalent and prompted several threads on TL lately.

Really man?

You should see the way the GSL ones look lately

Really excited to see how Diestar does in a LAN setting, very underrated Terran despite being very solid all round.
