Reduces the damage of marines by 20%. That's huge.


That + gaurdian shield means that after shields, marines are doing 2 damage a shot instead of 6, too. Marines just can't kill chargelots in that situation.

That was the window for Kas due to Socke jumping straight to HT.

Socke should take the game now with his superior tech.


Quoting myself just to point out that Socke was ahead, and you guys should have realized it! Kas had that window to win before he would get rolled (when he attacked into Socke's expo).


Yeah, congrats, you should become a caster.


I would but I don't want to be spammed hate in LR threads! = ) jk

Socke 2-1 Kas atm (BO5) Socke just won with a timing attack that looked unwinnable, and yet he did, causing everyone to wtf

As much as I am rooting for socke I have to say kas is playing really well. This series has been just great from a spectator point of view.

I hope this is the start of a more consistent kas. His A game is just top notch.

I disagree, Kas is strugling with emp placements and keeps being feedbacked on everything. also only starts microing when starts losing battle instead of from the beginning


What do you want? Socke is spreading his HT out so EMPs can't hit more than 1 at a time. Thus, Kas has to use snipe on HTs instead of EMPs.

What exactly more could he do?

How about starting to micro that battle right away and moving his army to the ramp where zealots would have just died from such a choke

The 2-0 mass zealot + archon timing is quite common on the EU ladder.

well marines would do 50% more damage (3 vs 2) so lots would melt way faster (bunkers live longer and such)

for turrets when he was the first vr

He was hit by VRs and zealots in the main base, plenty of reasons to build it one the low ground.

Zealots have one armor to start with, so +2 armor gives them three, and guardian shield takes off two damage, which means marines actually do one damage a hit to zealots at that point (after they go through their plasma shields).

Socke vs Kas. So far, great TvPs. First game Socke gets greedy on taldarim and looses to an all-in after going nexus first. Second two games were great macro games. Socke's micro has been fantastic, and has been doing lots of cool stuff like warp prisms, forward cannons, extra templar for feedback, and early VR harass. Last game there was also a VR with 29 kills and 3 hull hp left from the start of the game that was totally awesome.

I don't know. I think Socke is winning from superior strategies, not micro. Game 2 was the Warp Prism into the base tactic. Game 3 was the Void Ray early pressure decimating Kas's tech.

I respect your opinion though.
