and just like immortals aren't the answer to defending the 1-1-1. They can be but colluses are probably better.


4Gate is actually pretty dead.....so.....uh......I'm not sure what your point is there.


What? its barely anymore dead than it was in the last patch.


You can be even greedier now when defending 4gate; last patch it was 3gate with no tech, now you might even squeeze a tech building in. Not having the option to warp above a forcefield up a ramp is huge.


Not true at all, if you play greedy vs 4gate you still die just like the last patch.

anyway i dont want to go off topic anymore, but watch some games from mlg this weekend in that big pvp group and you will see at least 3-4 4gate wins.

TOP very much showing that he can play a macro TvP lol


Mana is also 3/3?


No he wasn't, he wasn't even 2/2 I think. Or he just hit 2/2 when that engagement started.

MaNa was also 3/3 in that engagement, as well as the recent one.

This is a fucking joke to watch, TOP's army gets blanketed by storms and just takes one step back and demolishes the Protoss army without any other micro.

Well, the ghosts did what they needed to do (emp the crap out of everything), they had no energy left anyway so it's not like they're super important... sort of like losing sentries with no mana, it's bad in the long run but in a single engagement it typically should have little to no effect.

Not really sure I understood what happened in that engagement. I guess TOP won entirely because of upgrades and superior supply.
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].

200 food terran vs 150 food toss =.=

but mana's macro is pretty crappy for most part =/ even with his insane mining, top's keeping his gas/min consistently below 500 when he's not maxed.

Lol at all the people saying TOP cant play a macro game. He is the definition of macro terran. Sometimes the LR threads are such a joke


Meh, TOP won this when Mana's attack on the third failed.

I'm sure he wasn't 3/3, because I saw at least one upgrade still going when they had the engagement. I'll check the replay later though.

But seriously we need to quit the imbalance cries in a LR thread, regardless of what you think.

Honestly i have no idea how much greedier you can be, but you can't deny that it's actually possible to be slightly greedier, wether it's a bit more tech or probes. The strength of the 4gate was warping up the ramp and now that's gone, so it -should- be easier to hold...but then again i haven't faced a 4gate since the new patch so i don't really know.

Easy on the balance whine yeh?

Didn't realise Mana wasn't 2-2, regardless TOP's had amazing upgrades on bio and air the whole time, and in the first game we saw the exact opposite happen in engagements when things went in Mana's favour.

Crushing performance from TOP.

Poor MaNa, he can show so much better than this, but hey, not everyone is always perfect.

Sloppy play in the mid-game by MaNa meant he was never in a good position late game.

3/3 Terran>3/3 Toss, Toss doesn't scale as well with armor upgrades due to shields.
