Someone DID learn to counter it properly. It's just that the counter automatically loses to Select's marine/scv all in.


Do you mean Puzzle with the phoenix open?

Been seeing Hero do it a lot on his stream.

Didn't their opponents arrive in a similar fashion?

If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.

Yeah his opponent did as well, Yaotzin asked about the Koreans specifically, though. So I was just answering that :p

No, I meant 15 nexus. See MC vs Thorzain at Columbus to see why phoenixes are not a reliable counter to the 1/1/1.
During practice session, I discovered very good build against zerg. -Bisu[Shield]

This is why I like the ESL Events. Progamers casting. Rotating casters who are all fucking good.

He's referring to nexus first countering it really well (as seen in game 2 of killer/select), but being very vulnerable to a 4rax all in like SeleCT did in games 1 and 3 (after scouting it)

Hero's opened phoenix forever in PvT, it's kind of his thing ^^

Poor Diestar, caught completely unprepared for that fast 2 Colossus push.

He is studying it :-) Becoz you cannot be a teacher with 24 (well maybe it's possible, but I do not think he is already a teacher)

No man, Koreans just have a hard time in EU tournament ... look at Nada's results in Assembly.
(Just trolling)

Seriously, if the Jet-Lag is a problem then fly-in earlier. Also, tournament started early, most of these pro-gamer-nerds would still be sleeping now.

Yeah I guess Americans too. It's mostly Koreans/Europeans though so I asked about Koreans. Seen it alot, they do kinda iffy on day1 then tear shit up after that.

Dying to a build as old and figured out as 2base collo push is...kinda sad :<

I have to agree. His pronunciation is OP.

Also has nice polite voice, opposite of his metal style


He is studying english as a teacher.
