nani should expand, he did enough damage i think.
if he pushes more the growing marauders will just rape stalkers.

In what universe does 3 gate blink stalker work vs a decent terran?

I don't understand naniwa's choices here at all.

That was TSL3 though haha

Rain was nothing special in korea, glad to see he's gone back to being nothing special outside of it too

LOL so ignorant. TvP is a ridiculously hard matchup right now. The only build with mild success is 1-1-1 and its not too difficult for toss to stop if they scout whatsoever. Not really surprised to see him losing to naniwa.

What?? Exactly what cave have you been hiding in for the last couple of months?

TvP in korea is like 65% win rate for Terran. 1-1-1 crushed the matchup and cannot be countered easily even when scouted. In the midgame, most good terrans will snipe key tech structures with marauder drops and then proceed to EMP protoss army to death. It is only in the lategame when TvP looks better.

Your post makes absolutely no sense and just goes to show that the majority of people here just regurgitate the same "facts" over and over again. Link some confirmation on the 65% win rate? 1-1-1 doesn't get you ghosts or emp or drops. Maybe a single medivac.

Oh god... I'm gonna stop derailing this thread after this post, of course 1-1-1 doesn't get you drops or emp or ghosts, it's what happens in the midgame when terran DOESN'T 1-1-1.

When they do a perfect 1-1-1 between 2 equally skilled players, they win most of the time. If they don't do so right away, the second wave usually ends the game.

TLPD Stats, go to the Korea graph, it's 38% P, 62% T. I think in aug the gap is a little smaller but still......

OK, that said, I'm not discussing PvT in this thread anymore

That is interesting but not very valid anymore. That post is over a month old and was written based on information that is even older. As I said, don't just regurgitate other people's words. If you watch any terran streamer on TL youd see they are all having massive difficulty vs. toss.

Dude, he's talking about Korean Terrans, he just said that before, are you like durrmmm? Or...

there are koreans who stream on tl.... please stop replying.

The stream is totally unwatchable for me, but from pictures it looked like he made nice damage.

Combat shield completes vs Blink micro. Naniwa breaks through the bunkers. It's a even fight both players fighting but Naniwa retreats temporarily.

Rain successfully resecuring his natural against Naniwas constant pressure. Nani still on one base and must make something happen.
