Here we go again. This weekend is about good games and good fun. Don't rain on that parade. Play nice guys. Here's the very standard and friendly:

- NO Balance Whine.
- NO Player Bashing.
- NO Caster Bashing.
- NO BM whatsoever.

Breaking these rules (from pg 166 forward) will be met with severe punishment.

Typical protoss mistake. Starts expansion. Moves out anyways. Dies


Yeah I guess 4 more zealots in that army would have changed the tide ^^


Thats not the point.
He had 2 colossus with lance, a third almost done, and a decent gateway army.
Using that at the thirds choke, or the naturals two chokes (with forcefields), is a very safe way to turtle and be untouchable.
Moving that army out leaves it vulnerable to less favourable attack angles, which is exactly what happened.

The more large range units you have, the better they become, especially at chokes.
Thats the reason why a large amount of roaches doesnt get that much better, while a large amount of stalkers + colossus is referred to as the death ball.
Staying at his chokes and turtling it out woudlve been much smarter, especially since he already threw down that nexus.


Typical zerg "Protoss just has to roflturtle" rant.


Are you serious?
Protoss doesnt need to turtle at all, but in this situation it wouldve been the best decision.
He was set back early on and had a disadvantage and therefore relatively small army.

If you dont see that turtling wouldve been the best decision in that situation then you simply dont understand the game.

If I where Naniwa I would send a second secret probe the second he sees Zerglings follow his first scout probe and just use that Probe to check for that Roach rush.

How was this the best SC2 tournament ever with such a horrible finals? Tasteless really needs to stop overhyping everything.


Best sc2 tournament in terms of the best sc2 content, as in no other tournaments could match the level of play that was demonstrated in this tourney. You need to stop complaining about little thing.

Also it was an amazing finals- Naniwa is killing nerds left and right with a seemingly unstoppable strategy (FFE into 2 base timing). Leenock goes to the grand finals and figures him out- various early pressures to delay Naniwa's economy and then macro so that the 2 base timing can be defeated.

The story is great; the games are not worth watching. Replays are good for learning how good ZvP cheese looks like.

Now I understand how he beat MMA. Leenock is exeptional in punishing greedy players.
So, a 16 years old wins a major tournament utilizing cheesing(in the good way) against great players. That reminds of a certain someone.


you dont need to hide the comparison people have made it already forever.


comparison to whom?


It goes far beyond punishing greedy players. The guy has what we call star sense.

He knows what is coming; he has his timings down and the guy shows extraordinary control. + his mind games are frigging ridiculous.

He knows how to play. Very, very SMART player. Goes far beyond punishing greedy builds. He's also pretty creative.


You didn't answer who they were talking about thought....
