No, Jjakji beat Losira.


You're forgetting that in that scenario Check > Jjakji > Losira > Check. So it would be a three way time for first and they would have to play off.

You are right, then it is a three way tie with Losira, Check and Jjakji.

It's not like Check had 1 supply roaches. He walled off at the choke of all of his bases, had like 2 gateway units out and a void ray/phoenix..


what the...

So a standard forge FE is greedy all of a sudden?

Standard? If building your forge ten miles away from your natural is standard then yeah.


What the fuck does building placement have to do with greediness?

Not as much. But it has everything to do with riskiness. You have that forge and cannons next to your base, and you have 1 sentry. That Nydus play will never work.

That must be one hell of a sentry.

You hold long enough for 1-2 more sentries (MC had 2 out at that point in the game, if he had done the standard FFE, he would have held), and then your cannons and Voids will do the rest.


Except 2 forcefields is not even enough to hold for 1 more sentry. And do you really think 1 voidray will cleanup an endless stream of lings before kill a nexus or 2?

CellaWerra. Someone sent him a huge donation while streaming in which he said HOLY CHECK. That's where it came from.

Cannons, pylons, zealots... the point is he was in a more defendable position. Use your imagination.

This specific building placement guaranteed an easy 3rd, thats why it was greedy as fuck. Imagine if he built his wall and his natural. MC could have protected his cannons with probes and sentries.


This is false.


So why, care to explain?


No matter your building placement you die the moment the nydus pops, because 1 sentry and 2-3 cannons won't kill that many lings before they run into the main and kill that off. The way to defend it is to just keep the nydus from popping up.

The two bolded scenarios are incorrect. It will be a 3-way tie. Jjakji beat LosirA, who (in the bolded situation) beat Check, who beat Jjakji. All of them beat Kyrix and MC in this scenario.

my face is melting due to people not understanding who can still go through and who can't and what a 3 way tie is, even though 5 different people spell it out competently, this is even worse than the usual balance whine

btw: if jiakji makes it through and taeja/mkp win tomorrow, we get 20 terrans in code s
