Fools! You should already know that only way you are not all-inning is when you are at 3+ bases (4+ for toss) and maxed out.
Whenever you correct someone's grammar just remember that nobody likes you.

It's retarded is what it is.

MAYBE Kyrix holds, but how the F is he going to win if MC loses 11 lots/sent and probably saves 2-3 VRs???

No tech? He's up to +1 and a Stargate? He's walled. I seriously have no idea why this is cheese or all-in.

That was all-in as all-in gets.

Did you look at the saturation of his natural? He only had two mining per patch on both bases, with no gas taken. On top of that he had 300gas in the bank.

If that attacked failed, if the pylon got scouted, if the Zerg saw it coming then MC would have been done. It may still have done a little damage but there is no chance in hell that he can win from there.

Protoss isn't like Terran, you can't recover from low-econ all-ins as well as Terran can because of how reliant you are on a good econ and gas.



Protoss doesn't really bank resources and 2 on each patch is optimal as the third only mines half.

But jjakji won Losira, so if Jjakji wins all and lose to MC he'll be 3-1, losing to MC, Losira 3-1 losing to Jjakji, MC 3-1 losing to Losira, so they'll have to replay unless I'm terribly wrong (which happens often)

He didn't even cut probes for that long before letting his resources stockpile for the warpins. The reason the drone count looked so uneven was because Kyrix literally made nothing but drones and a third base the entire time. If the zerg saw it coming he would have also had to cut drones to make units to combat it in which case he wouldnt have had as many drones to make MC look as all-in as he was. Sure MC would have been behind without his gases but you are behind if any timing push ever fails. That doesn't make it an all-in and doesnt make MC instantly dead. It was a timing that hit when a zerg would be greedy taking his third after scouting a FFE and teching to hydra to deal with the voidrays (which he was), if there was no quick third then MC wasn't behind and if there were no hydras three voidrays woudl have done a ton of damage after zealots took out queens.

It is the only solution. I don't see another option.

Can people stop immediately call this an all in. If a protoss, doesn't matter how many gates he has sees that a zerg has no units, he's going to pressure to either do damage or force a zerg to make units at the very least. You guys forget, mc sees all of kyrix's base with the voids, don't assume that once he made the 6 gates he was committed.


It is an all-in because the probe production was stopped entirely. If it was intended as "pressure", the probe production would continue and MC wouldn't have been able to afford that many zealots in such a short period of time.

No tech? He's up to +1 and a Stargate? He's walled. I seriously have no idea why this is cheese or all-in.


Because it all depends on the damage that the attack was going to do. Assuming Kyrix didn't even lose a single drone and did crush that entire force, MC has no chance of winning unless Kyrix made a string of catatstrophic mistakes.

A somewhat similar game like this would be Trickster vs Losira in last season's Code S on Metalopolis. Losira crushed that attack and Trickster NEVER stood a chance subsequently. It is an all-in, albeit a well-executed one.


That attack not doing damage is highly unlikely. Remember you can block off the ramp and zerg has no units. Nothing that would really dominate zealots and 3 fully charged voidrays without heavy losses.

The block was key, it lets the voidrays get max charge, and when that happens its easy to be cost effective with them.


Precisely why nobody is doubting the fact that this is a well executed all-in. Trickster wasn't able to achieve the same effect during his game with Losira.

I found a new term for all-in that we can all agree on that is easier to say, shorter and to the point.

Massive cut in probes with little to no tech and mass units (with or without a probe pull) with almost no good way to transition out of without doing heavy to massive damage (hopefully they gg before all my units die) aggression.

That was all-in as all-in gets.

Did you look at the saturation of his natural? He only had two mining per patch on both bases, with no gas taken. On top of that he had 300gas in the bank.

If that attacked failed, if the pylon got scouted, if the Zerg saw it coming then MC would have been done. It may still have done a little damage but there is no chance in hell that he can win from there.

Protoss isn't like Terran, you can't recover from low-econ all-ins as well as Terran can because of how reliant you are on a good econ and gas.



Protoss doesn't really bank resources and 2 on each patch is optimal as the third only mines half.

40 probes 10mins into the game is not optimal by any means.

He was banking gas because he was building nothing but Zealots. Though at the end he made some sentry warp-ins and burned it all

Regardless it was an all-in. 40 Probes just doesn't cut it considering in the next few minutes you have to rebuild an army AND Tech AND build another 20~ Probes.

Chronoboost probes for the first few minutes your mineral spending increases as you are producing probes at a faster rate, it takes a minute or two before the Probes kick in and pay themselves off, unlike Mules which are almost instant gain
