Open up his liquipedia page and take a look at his accomplishments in sc2. Faded glory my ass. Just because a player doesnt win everything doesnt mean hes not a great player.

Kids these days...


if smugness won sc2 games you'd be grandmaster.


If being dumb won you sc2 games you'd be grandmaster.

Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, how do you easily tell which players are in code A and which are code S? (based off of the page 1 info)

or are we assumed to know the entire playerlist of code S/A?

It would greatly enhance watching this if I knew whether the person was competing to upgrade from A into S, or they are risking downgrade from S into A....

I added a link to liquipedia at the top of OP so lazy people are one click away from the info you seek :p

I don't know if you've seen many ZvP's lately, but you can't just turtle and take your third, zerg's get aggressive... thats exactly what losira was waiting for, also check out Coca's games from MLG, every single game against protosss except G2 against HuK is him killing the protoss when they try take their 3rd.



i guess i shouldnt talk as if i know everything

in my experience if you go straight to collossi and only focus on that, it gives you enough strength to hold your third
HOWEVER, maybe im wrong
in those games you suggest, was the toss going for templars before his third was up? if so. he played it wrong imo
and im only talking about how to take your third off a voidray opening. maybe his opening was different. sometimes you do want to go for templars before the third.


maybe i am completely wrong. maybe the power of collossi isnt enough to hold your third. i havnt experienced it, but i still admit i MAY be wrong. i guess i should shut up and stop talking like i know everything

i will admit, if my collossi idea is wrong, then in that situation MC has no options and was going to lose the game no matter what.

so i guess the imbalance claimers do have sort of a point... maybe....


Well in coca's games vs naniwa, coca took really quick 3rd, droned, went roach hydra corrupter and attacked when naniwa's 3rd was completing. both games naniwa went only gateway/colossus/+atk upgrade, got completely crushed both games.

Spire and burrow both start for Losira. Still not much happening on the map but jjakji takes his third.

Interesting game, I was like wow Losira has 70 drones already, then realised Jjakji is up at about 60 scv's too

A drop is spotted by Losira but he fails to notice and a spine crawler and 6+ lings are traded to turn the medivacs and their contents around.

Oh man, I haven't read all the pages yet but I can bet there will be sooo much balance whining.

Yeah, depends on the maps.

In most maps, Colossus alone just aren't strong enough to hold. Usually you can defend the third but take heavy losses and lose to the next fight :|
