So bad control by Socke. Should have done likce otti said. Lifting a few stalkers while not doing much else was fail. Also, why not lift immortal?


exactly my thoughts.
he used the same Bo in the EPS Finals vs. Hasu so well.

Just now RotterDam Correcting Mr.Bitter about stalker lifting phoenix

Rotti is a PvP expert, and Mr Bitter plays zerg and hates toss ;p, it's just helping him out afaik.

You can feel the tension between the two. And also the way Rotterdam correct it with a big NO!, and Mr.Bitter saying No? If it's was Day9 correcting DJwheat or Artosis correcting Tasteless its less harsher tone.

He would've needed more phoenix. I've gone 2 stargate phoenix before and you might lose your ground army, but if you kill their stalkers then you've pretty much won the game as the rest of their army can't do anything and you can pick off the low number of stalkers that he can warp in every time.

Socke couldn't decide on what to do with the phoenix really.



You guys all realize it takes like 14 phoenix shots to kill a stalker right? And 3x that to kill a colossus.

At that time the colossus have killed half of the ground army...

He should have never engaged that army. Snipe the nexus and run away, maybe kill some workers in the main with phoenix to distract mana.

I was very surprised why he felt he had to move out in the first place - that many phoenixes guarantees a ton of probe kills anyways.

You're seeing/hearing things that most people aren't. Hell, they were just joking about Rotterdam's underwear and I didn't hear undertones of shut up or anything.

i think you your emagination is playing games on you... the both stated yesterday that they have absolutely no problem with each other... they would not hire a caster to form a team if the both dont like each other, how dumb would that be.

So not doing anything besides lifting a single stalker is better than lifting immortal and zealots (which gives you a chance at winnign ground fight) and killing colussus?

I'd say there's a little bit of stepping on each others toes, but they get along pretty well. It's probably just the fact they've been casting for 4 days now. I think you're seeing things.

They're nowhere near 2GD/Zalmah friction, which made WoW far more entertaining than it had any right to be.

Rotter and Bitter hate each other, and it's so evident it's actually embarrassing, and I'm surpriced
Carmac or someone doesn't actually correct them both. This behaviour is childish and unprofessional.
I expect to not see at least one of them in the next IEM.

Oh and Socke, why does he do a bunch of Phoenix just to lift up two or three stalkers? If he would have ran away after the Nexus snipe, he would've won.

Well if he had gone and killed the probes, that'd just tell mana "go kill him". I liked the idea of lifting the immo, esp. since socke was trying to protect his zlots from the colossi, by having them in the back at the start(which could've also made the ground fight go so bad).

I seriously hope you are trolling.
Although your second sentence makes me doubt it.

I'm getting so sick and tired of this - SHUT IT already, will you?

Rotti and MrBitter have repeatedly stated that they don't have any problems with one another, spending long hours in their free-time together laddering and stuff. They correct each other because they don't feel the need to be overly polite and blindly agree with every nonsense the other one fabricates. It's much, much better than the "blablablablblubb" "yeah, I agree".

You people look for drama everywhere, it seems.

So both just straight lie to all of us, because they postet several times, that they have no problem at all with each other and even hang out together in the evenings... you should maybe read things like that before posting such bullshit
