Obligatory public note for all large tournament threads:

The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans:

1. Whining about stream
2. Bashing other games
3. Flaming other users
4. Bashing players
5. Complaining about imbalance.

It is in no way complete. Keep in mind that there's a difference between pointing out that the SC2 and CoD streams were switched and whining about it (same thing on pointing out/asking about stream lag and whining about it, etc.). Also, just because you post something and aren't immediately banned for it doesn't mean you won't get caught. We'll be going through this thread very carefully.

That being said, enjoy today's games!

Trickster makes a stargate, DRG already has an evo. DRG even scouts the void ray coming.

.... i think you just answered your own question...

what, you really think 4gate is an option at that lvl? I can even stop a 4gate nowadays without zergling speed and im just diamond


speed gives map control. how is that a bad thing?

to be fair though I'm sure Anaheim live was loud as hell, MLG has good silencer so its not as loud as you would think when you watch it from their stream.

Youtube a recorded anaheim cheer and compare it to the VOD from anaheim, you'll see the difference.

Definitely look like alot less people at Raleigh, but probably just everyone watching it from home instead of risking the hurricane

Hmm I guess I know this from earlier MLGs but it still strikes me as so odd that fans can get sooo close to players even when they are playing a match (looking at the blue stream atm). Is there any security at all there? I mean this game is growing, gotta start treating the stars like proper stars soon I guess.

Genius almost took out Losria with a 4gate recently but Losira fell back into his main. Then Genius teched up to Void ray + 1 air attack with zealots and rolled him.

This is why DRG's PvZ is bad. He still uses hydras.


He had to get hydras out to defend against the void rays.


a few infestors would have done the job, and it would also have work very well vs zealots

it takes like 4 fungals to kill one void.



Yes but it also takes 4 fungals to kill 6 voidrays. Hydras are too slow and too weak to go against this composition. The voidrays attacking DRG's main was genius because it takes the hydras too long to go from the main to the center of the map, thus DRG had to commit to one. Also the mass zealot into HT/Archons was also smart because hydras get eaten up by storm and zealots, and zerglings get eaten up by archons. If DRG went roach/infestor, he could have killed the 6 void rays right away as well as fair very well against the zealots and archons.


+ infestated terrans, they kill void ray so so fast.

Hey guys,

if anyone has serious internet problems - rewind just a little bit backwards. As long as the stream runs 10-30 seconds behind, it gets enough time to buffer, and you can watch without lag.

Yeah props to the people who risked it. Hope we see more signs though, and not just ones that ruin esports.

Well he kinda had to?

mutas or infestors would have been better. hydras are kind of crap

Mutas? When you know the protoss has at least 2 stargates? No. Infestors? Maybe, but it would take too long to tech to, and you need a fair amount of them with enough energy to combat so many voids.

mutas with a couple corruptors thrown in to zone isn't awful, it's a better option than hydras -______- the only reason you would have hydras in your army is to deal with air but they can't chase down air, don't do a lot of burst damage, and they become useless supply when your enemy gets AoE.

Unless trickster loses a fair amount of his intial voids, a 2 stargate phoenix/void combo vs a later spire muta/corrupter wouldn't have been even close. He had to do something to survive quickly, and hydras were the only viable option.

you're probably right :/ he just got too many. like I said, they're JUST a defensive response, you don't want any more of them than you need.
