Scouting in PvT sucks (for protoss.) That really all there's to it.

Agreed. oGs needs better zergs

The Terran will not find the tech everytime, but the protoss needs an obs to see the terrans all-in. The terran just needs a well placed scan.
Which is completly luck based. A map is quite big aswell.

You try to get the fastest DT tech with the Terran going for the fastest banshee tech, and tell me what happens
Actually, most of the DT expands / DT + prism strategies are played against scouted 1 rax FE, so it seems failure is yours.

Yeah and that's why TvZ is more fun to watch and way more fun to play ^^. Hopefully TvP will get better in the future, we will have to see what patches or HOTS brings.

Not expecting cloaked banshees from supernova is like not expecting DTs from Inca.
Every single game.

Thats going to suck for ForGG if Leenock loses this

The problem is that protoss players has to play poker in PvT until we get observers, then we can start playing starcraft if we're not allready dead.

its really hard for terran too. its not like you scout a toss not going robo and then decides to do cloak banshee
its just stupid blind play from both guys trying to scout and get the best odds of what someone is doing. but at times it happens that toss thinks its 1rax expand and its actually cloak banshee or 111 lol
and a terran who actually did a 1rax here and toss goes fast nexus and plays with really late robo, even dual forge before robo then terran is pretty fucked in general
a game cant be coinflip for only 1 side

HELL YEAH! LEENNOCKUUU!
Apparently the games were pretty good, but its still great hopefully see ForGG's hype train stop, I've never said that he is a good as people think he is.

can we get some sort of LRing? I don't need the imba Drazerk/Seeker/Megan LRing but something different than "OMAGAD CLOAAKED BANSHEEES OP" would be nice.

How exactly can you know what a terran is doing... they are unscoutable! I heard observers do quite a good job scouting. So blind robo every game? There is a reason that so many people have thought that observers should be build from the cyber instead of robo. 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. Not being able to move from your base is very different to losing the game. Also, there is a THIRD possibility from scouting the bunker at the ramp top, which is a 3-4 rax marine all in. This blindly beats any robo build.
The whine of sc2 players is really annoying. Don't you understand that if you want to take the risk you can either be rewarded or punished. Sc2 players want every build to be able to withstand any build. It will never work like that. There is a risk/reward system that works with builds and smarter better players will be able to win with this system which is how the game is supposed to be played.

Supernova denies Leenock's third base for the second time.
Engagement near the Xel'naga tower going into supernova's favour.

Leenock is in really bad shape this game. Supernova has amazing decisions.

Supernova up 3bases vs 2 for Leenock now

missed the mines
