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...

Stop it. Just stop it.

He's probably trolling, I don't even want to imagine the alternative.

If you ignore him, he won't have anyone to reply to.

That's the problem with some TL posters, you just don't know sometimes

dayim people, rain's decent, i just have a grudge against him since he 2 raxed like it was going out of style in GSL open season 2

Is anyone else's stream lagging? 15mbit down at speedtest.net, yet 360p is extremely laggy, not to mention the higher settings.

Naniwa will be my favourite player if he makes a warp prism and drops the DTs behind the terran frontlines

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

DTs! The engineering bay completes and turrets are going up. Naniwa burns one scan then Rain shows he deserves to be here by blocking the DT with his marauders for the few precious seconds he needs to complete his turrets. Naniwa expands and is 12 supply behind but very behind on econ.

I love how everyone was hating on Rain saying he's going to cheese and now we see this 1base nonsense from Nani.

Download Ultrasurf, fixed that for me - can watch now 702p+ without any lags.
