Genius opts for stargate once again, and goes up to 6 gates once again
More or less deja vu on DRG's side as well

Wow Genius handling Belshir so well.

Holy crap, Genius finally became a Super Genius.

Genius going for +1 air and penix as well!

Genius is playing like a genius this series. omg the pun hurts my brain...

Genius really knows how to weather the muta storm in the mid-game... 3-4 phoenix, good number of stalkers, great positioning of cannons.. I'm impressed.

You might get lucky and win 1-2 early rounds, but when you get to bo5 or bo7 you get rolled by better players, because you practiced all ins instead of macro games all that time. How is forcing 2base vs 2base and then retreating to expand an all in? If you don't kill the expo you're basically going to lose since your own 3rd will be really late. That case the all-in succeeded. I thought Toss could play 2base vs 3base PvZ. It's funny how you can't attack someone without teching/expanding at the same time (making the attack less forceful), or it's an all-in. It's not like zerg can tech and expand while you're attacking him either.
If the attack fails to kill the zerg's 3rd you lose. That makes it an all-in. I don't see why people have so much trouble with this concept. You'd think I'd insulted their mother or something.

Dare I say.... this build is GENIUS artosis?

Attacking just before Tunnelling claws finishes. What are you doing DRG?
He delayed a strong timing push from Genius that had a ton of forcefields. He made Genius waste a lot of sentry energy.
It was a great move from DRG, forget what Artosis says.

Except you don't lose, you're just behind.
There's a big big difference.
There's all ins, then there are timing attacks. What Genius did was a timing attack not an all in.

Genius' build is just designed to deal with mutaballs. Phoenixes vs mutas >< Mnnnnnn

Point is that's not even true. Killing 10+ Drones and the majority of Queens would have been good enough as well. This dent in Zerg's production gives Genius the time to set up his 3rd. This is, of course, given he does not lose his entire army. But that's the case with all (timing) attacks. If you do zero damage and lose your army then yeah obviously you are behind.
