Wow! I thought White-Ra was behind after that late and failed 9-10 minute push (although he secured his third behind it).

Nice storm blanket there at the end.

It's so strange, I always doubt Whitera's skill. He always seems... not so good/solid to me. Then he just throws something like this in my face and I go "err maybe he's actually pretty good".

I don't think White-Ra is particularly solid either, although he can be, but that doesn't mean he isn't pretty good, no?

Well, I don't think White-Ra plays super solid all the time; he can be very greedy and also take a lot of risks in his play. I don't think this makes him less than "pretty good" though. Although, I wouldn't put him in the very top tier of Protoss players, either.

Clear now?

Edit/ This game is an example of greedy + risky play from White-Ra.

He seemed to just not macro so he threw down 2 Nexuses in the hope 1 stayed alive. He was banking like 1.2k at the time.

White-Ra holding that gold base was key. That, and Nerchio not teching up and engaging in some poor positions.

I still don't know how White-Ra won though after losing both those expansions.
