The fans in Anaheim seem to be the loudest and most excited, with Columbus coming in second. No idea why Providence crowd seems so laid back . . .
It's Rhode Island.
Anaheim is in So Cal/Los Angeles. One of, if not the biggest, e-sport hotbeds in the USA. Columbus is in the midwest; another gigantic hotbed for e-sports fans.
Rhode Island is just...Rhode Island.

oh lordy that sucks that they auto detonate and kill nothing. ty

OH god I have no doubt that Protoss is the most micro intensive race O.O When there aren't Colossus involved. Vortex into insta win is very micro intensive, I agree.
Anyone trying to argue about lack of micro in PvZ after seeing that game has surprisingly adept keyboard skills for a sloth.

Arent vortexed units immune to damage for a short period or time (a sec or 2?) when leaving the vortex? yeah but so are the archons that go inside. and if the archons are outside, then the banes have invuln and thus they are even better off. but if they explode before it wears off they do 0 dmg? I guess you could wait a sec or two and manual detonate
Saw destiny test this, you need like a row of banes (8) per archon to go in and you come out with killing all the archons, but you have to send banes in after archons or the protoss just wont go in for the vortex, plus that many banes+broods u gotta be super prepared/far ahead.

Pretty much the most abusive build possible, I can't tell if I like it or hate it, i'm gonna go with hate because it's so easy to pull off in comparison to being ready to beat it. It's not remotely easy to pull off. His sentry micro was sick. Eh, it was almost unneeded though. By the time he had to micro his sentries, he had already killed most of the drones and the Hydralisk Den. It's not easy to do it like Hero, but it's definitely an abusive build, and it is easy to pull off a shittier version of it. Yeah, its totally abusive to zergs who go blind double expand off of slow lings. That's a totally safe and valid build...
How did slow lings or the delayed tech affect the defense at all? Ret either has Muta's and holds or he happens to scout it and has units in the main. Not saying it's undefendable, but it can definitely come down to a coin toss, much like that game.

I am two for two so far. Huk vs Hero and Naniwa vs Nestea.

So apparently Ganzi is 1-1-1'ing every single game against good protosses?

what should ret have done to prevent the forcefield on the ramp? or the scenario that lead to it? Have half his army in main half in natural? So he can focus down sentries.
Have a couple roaches before it begins? Don't drone up to 70 drones with 6 zerglings etc etc
