Because he went 1/1/1 in game one and went cloak banshee in all three games. I'm not saying Supernova is a cheesy player, but that was definitely a cheesy series. Also, people love MC and flying a banshee into a mineral line and cloaking it then clicking H for hold position makes for a sad way for a fan favorite to lose a game 3. But it happens. Supernova wants to win, so he does cloak banshee. It's good against Protoss. Observers please. | ||

It's not that exploitable, just like a 1rax expand isn't that exploitable. If you're not going to do that you can at least confirm the expand - when MC does his zlot/stalker poke you can run up to confirm the CC has landed at least and keep the stalker alive. MC was blindly going for the 4gate, his own fault. Anyway, I can easily see Leenock beating Supernova and MC beating fOrGG which would make a Supernova MC rematch to decide who advances. There's this thing called economy and it's kinda important. | ||

Not all variations are all-in. In fact most 1-1-1s are very safe. | ||

Yeah.... ![]() You know Protoss can get up a Robo with DT's around the same cost of cloaked banshees? T - Fact-SP-Techlab-Cloak 550 minerals 425 gas P - Twilight-Robo-Darkshrine 450 minerals 450 gas Yes Terran has Scan, but if you hit just after a MULE'ing.... P generally should go robo unless he is absolutely 100% no banshees can be coming | ||

I dont get what the big deal is. In bw protoss had to build an observetory first before building a obsever from robotics. And in pvt in bw protoss couldnt move from its base until it had an observer to clear out spider mines. | ||

Balance whine is supposed to be banned from LR threads. But no one reads that when the post it at the top anyways. I'm spoiled from the Proleague LR threads. No balance whine there. | ||

But there not just any other terrans, look at it this way one of them is ForGG, the second supernova has had it through so many times, u kinda expect him to be there | ||

Leenock had key moves in the first game, while ForGG didn't make game changing decision. Second game, ForGG tried a timing push that was completely unsuccessful against the opening of Leenock (+1 ling armor, 3 hatch late tech) and he got badly raped after. So to sum up : a first really good slow and macro game, and a one-sided rape. | ||
