Judging from the last 2 games, Genius has a big problem with drop play.

It sucks that Protoss has to prepare for 1/1/1 and by doing so Terran can take such a fast Expo and get very far ahead.

His macro is not even close to that of Top, and that's not for the drops.

i really dont like genius's decisions somtimes ... when he starts getting harassed he doesnot deal with it he just takes his whole army to kill TOP

that's ok because he was trying to defend until he has a big ball to overwhelm the terran.
The drop does split up terran's army as well, one big push in theory should dominate the main army and just roll over the bases

but terran's bioball is just a bit too strong


Engaging into a concave without a good spread or better unit composition doesn't mean terran bioball is too strong. Look at how Huk engages those big fights - the difference is huge. Genius just panics when his multitask starts falling apart.

People, leaving like 3 stalkers at your base instead of your main army wont make your army like half times weaker. just leave them to stop drops.


If ur gonna leave stalkers to defend against drops, just buy a few canons. Really its more cost effective, and the stalkers can be in the army in case they engage. By late game, the cost of a few canons is not much to the cost of losing an expo like that.

If Genius wants to win, I think he has to revert to 1base all-ins or cheese, cos I don't really see him winning top in a macro game.

genius just aint a clutch player.
he got no balls.
what genius needs is a coach that makes him train 8 hours a day, and not a bunch of friends who act like supersayans in gstl intros.
All what KT currently needs is a Zerg and a second Terran

Genius just seems like a mediocre player. Average control, poor macro but does lots of timing attacks.
Why do all the protosses get in only based on timing attacks? (Other than puzzle/MC)

Nah. But yeh, he can't stop drops, so that doesn't really matter.

1 Gate and 1 Rax expand are quite similar in expand timings, TOP just took his third way faster than genius did or could

dropships seem to trigger a glitch in the matrix of Genuis brain. Seeing that drop management i dont see any way for genius to win.

Really sloppy series... Genius feedbacking drops after 20 minutes, attacking just before storm finishes, and Top floating 1000+ minerals several times...
