Ironically enough, that's basically Entombed valley. The main/nat/third are almost identical to Steppes of War.

Actually, to do that, you have to be good at the game No, microing stalkers against marines/SCVs which are slower and take about 25 shots to kill a stalker when the marine count is about equal is no different than stutter stepping. And I suppose I am good at the game (high masters on NA, had a high enough MMR to play against a 900+ KR on my trial account and win before time ran out), maybe not at the level of these Koreans Code S players, but that kind of micro wasn't "OMG AMAZING". "maybe"? You're far inferior to Code S players. Honestly high masters on NA is nothing, don't downplay incredibly good play to try and look good. No, it's because I'm good that I recognize that game was won strictly on builds. Even if I'm 'far inferior' to Code S players, it's been proven that 'High master NA' players can take games off Code S Koreans (cough gowser vs Polt 2-1). For the record I did beat MVPTails on ladder at least, so what about you? The micro was not as amazing as people make it seem like. He was stutter stepping and running them back when they were hurt, I realize you lower league players can't handle things like that even though the units take 20+ hits to kill but stop making it seem mind-blowing and amazing. 3 Marines vs 2 Stalkers is nothing crazy, even with 6 SCVs considering Stalkers are faster. Since you're so gosu, go take Oz's place right now and play for him. It's not like he was only worrying about microing at that point lol. I don't understand the way people are responding to what this guy said...he's just saying what Oz did wasn't that hard...>_> It was just stalkers out microing those units that they always outmicro. I saw masters league streamers do comparable micro to that. Just becuase it looked cool doesn't mean it was really hard to do necessarily. I'm not saying it was ridiculously great micro lol plenty of masters and GMs can do that kind of stuff. I just think until you're the one in the booth playing for a bigass prize against the best players in the world, you shouldn't compare yourself to them. my 2 cents. Mega's post nailed it. Another issue is how biased the TL forums are. Game #2 was much more entertaining, but because a protoss favorite player lost, Game #1 still is voted as being more recommended. That early aggression play was practically a build order win (the map also played a part due to how open the natural is). How is that more impressive than a late game where macro/micro is much more important in determining who wins? TL bias tends to swing with the most prominent QQ of the time. It used to be zergs, but ever since the 1/1/1 and the infamous front page balance whine article Protoss have learned that they can indeed give the zergs a run for their money in the whining department. Nah just everyone hates terran. Its that simple
There's that too...

Just don't forget 3-3 this time oz.

MMA makes 3rd CC and takes main geysers
Oz takes a poke up MMA's natural but pushed back by huge marine force
Said marine force pushes out and catches a few stalkers and sentries unattended
MMA teching to Starport while Oz double forge upgrading and researching blink. 3 chronoboosts in close proximity look so pretty

MMA once again finishing 1/1/CombatShields as Armory finishes.

He's talking about MMA vs Oz game 3. From November.

MMAs propably could just 1 a directly into Oz with a ton of bio after those sentry losses, but he looks very careful.
|
Oz is way behind now 2base vs 3 base and no sign of being able to do anything, MMA powering up hard, will be 200 soon
|
I don't know why but I have really been enjoying watching TvP's lately.
|
Only thing oz has going for him is the great upgrades.
Rushing upgrades and not getting colossus or a third though.
|
Isn't this the exact same map where Oz came back from way behind and beat MMA in some months ago?

This is starting to feel more and more like an all-in by Oz

Is MMA actually ahead on bases?

Here, have some free zealots!

It was fine for Oz to lose that game, Crossfire is a hideous map and I have no idea why it's even still in the map pool. have to agree, the amount of chokes is absurd I approve of your facetiously hidden balance whine, but Colossus, colossus. wasnt balance whine, chokes are amazing for sentry too, and storm on chokes is good, its nothing about balance i just think a lot of chokes is bad map design it makes the games seem a lot easier..EMPs/storms/AoE are all more effective and a seemingly even game sorta falls apart with one splash attack -.-
at the same time its really easy for T to get a amazing arc at bottom of ramp its impossible for P to engage,

Nah, that was calm before the storm.
This has been an absolutely horrible game from Oz.
