If you don't know how to post in a live report thread by now, be advised: don't whine about game balance and don't bash players/casters/interviewers/staff/other posters. We are monitoring this thread closely.

Stop with the USA USA chant shit. Further offenses beyond page 493 will be met with bans. You've been warned.

That was an amazing game but I felt carriers would have been far more useful switch that voids at that stage. 6 carriers would be much better against mass corruptors also due to range.
Also 7 gateways only ?!! That was probably what cost him the game.

Broodlords and corruptors in such high numbers are definitely not something you can stop with any reasonable protoss composition. Nor it should be. As someone said before, it's of the Protoss' responsibility to not let the zerg do that.

I think Inori should have sacrificed his army little by little while remaxing with void rays, not like he did (losing his whole army and try to remax from there). If he gets enough time to get a critical amount of void rays, maybe he can hold any waves of corruptors. Unless there are infestors. In this case, I guess he has to get lucky with his remaining feedbacks.

Stephano is living proof of why America is such a great country.

God created the USA in his image. It only makes sense that Stephano would have such godly play.

Long live the US of A. Stephano making us proud.

Meh, Inori could've just killed Stephano by pushing just as the greater spire started morphing. He was up on supply, with Blink Stalker/Colossus vs mostly Ling/Infestor and better upgrades. It's really risky to apply the "if you're ahead, get further ahead" mantra vs good Zergs, since they have the ultimate comeback mechanism when left upressured. Plus, it's really hard to engage Bl/Infestor in the late game.


stephano build 20 spines for a reason ...


He had like 5 in the center choke, which are really easy to snipe with Colossi or blink stalkers. And if Stephano tries to engage there, he can get FFed and just die.

I don't know man, europe has only 2-3 good players and the worst ladder. USA all the way.


Well, we have Incontrol in Europe, I think he is hope for all of us Euro.

just saying that theSTC's build in game3 against idra was not all-in


theSTC made 400 minerals worth of production against zerg before expanding. rax+factory+techlab+reactor = 400 minerals only


this is very standard. you make 400-500 minerals of production against zerg to pressure then you expand



a good build for toss is to make 2gates (300min), cyber (150minerals) = 450 minerals before expanding against zerg

theSTC's build was very similar and didnt cut economy


the orbital command doesnt count as a production facility. the orbital command costs 150 minerals but is essentially just a way for the terran to make 5 workers for 150 minerals (40% reduced price) and its the terrans macro mechanic

Stop watching Starcraft.

Edit: In all seriousness, that's not all he did.


Lol. What game were you watching? Stephano contains Inori denying his third.

Cat and mouse games around the Xel Nagas as Stephano continues to pressure the toss third. He snipes collosi reatreating onto the high ground, reducing the size of any potential death ball.

Stephano runs from the bottom of the map to the top of the map defending warp prism harass.

They trade armies, leaving only Blords vs VR-collosus. Inori smartly retreats...but not entirely, leaving his VRs prey to Stephano's remax on Corruptors.

Inori doesn't have enough gateways to make enough blink stalkers to counter while the slow moving Blords lay siege to Inori's main.

tl'dr Boring? Your response was boring.
