I know right? That would have been awesome to see.



Might have misunderstood but to me it looked like ThorZaIN pulled back on his own when dts came, at least it looked like that on the minimap.

Can't help but take a smug satisfaction from Huk's win after all the balance whine posts and the 'this game is broken and retarded' bollocks.

Who cares who won. People only care which race won so they can blame balance for the loss of their player.

Gotta hand it to TotalBiscuit. He is by far the best caster when it comes to introducing the players..

If you do a contain you need to check for hidden expos


And account for the only tech switches that can somehow make you lose the game. I just don't understand it, he plays such a measured style most of the time, even in this game he realised the possibilty of a counter was high so left a siege tank and a clump of marines back to defend. I just can't understand how he didn't account for a dark shrine somewhere ><


He did though. He scanned, didn't see anything, but still dropped an engin bay and saved scans knowing dts could screw him. Huk was simply a narrow step ahead of him, something that happens from time to time when games get to that level of chaos.

Thorzain is so far doing the same build he did in game 1 on antiga
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Horrible game, first thorzain won because huk is bad, then huk won because thorzain decided to play like a idiot
.

Correction: thorzain won because he picked terran and 1 base allined.
It is ridiculous how many variations there exist of 1 abse terran allin. all require a different response and way more skill to hold off then to execute.

Thorzain all had to do at one point is A move into Huks base. Now when you are to afraid to do that IT MEANS YOU ARE NOT READING THE GAME RIGHT!!!



Because units can go through forcefields up the ramp!!!!!

Tanks outrange Immortals and Stalkers?

No way he would have got vision up the ramp (maybe one scan)


He had 2 saved up when he finally moved his orbital. All he needed to do was inch his tanks in, seige to deny FFs and aggression against his marines on the ramp, and wait.

I don't think there was any engagement in that. Thorzain just left because he had no scans and is therefore vulnerable to DT.


You can tell by the fact both players still had a sizable army in the retreat across. You don't break a bunkered in tank/marine contain and have both players with the majority of their army still there...

Macro time, woo!
