Exactly. I remember MVP saying 1-1-1 should be a DQ because its so strong (it was partly joking partly serious). People figured it out and now its not so hard to stop.


Except they didn't, really. The maps just got changed to make 1/1/1 weaker.



Yes they did. 111 really sucks on most maps.


Hey, thanks for restating my point!

I don't get this. 3rd gets scouted, building bunkers and still the fight is not even close!


A nexus is 400 minerals...on the other hand Jjaki went for double ebay, +1, and teched up to medivacs while only having one.


And you suggest he shouldn't get upgrades or medivacs?


a third nexus costs 400 minerals. parting went for MASSSS gateway units, no forge, no tech, no upgrades. just zealot/stalker/sentry. basically a 2base all-in with zero tech but spending 400minerals on a third nexus

jakji got 2bases then made factory (150/100) starport (150/100) 2 engi bay (250) +1/+1 (200/200) and he made 1 medivac (100/100) which was out by then

essentially, by the time partings attack hit, jakji had spent 750/400 on a single medivac. while parting spent 400 on a third nexus (which allowed him to spread out his probes for more efficient mining) with like 8gates for a massive attach with zero tech

id say to counter this crap, there are probably several options from the terran. i say wait a bit and sooner or later terrans will figure out the proper way to play against these gateway pressure possibilities

The entire concept is stupid abusive and based around the power of warp gates/sentries though. It feels like the mechanic really needs to be re-looked at; it creates so many stupid situations where any defender's advantage is more than negated (see forcefields on ramps in PvZ).


i'd suggest we wait until this GSL finals are over before we claim imbalance. im pretty sure a top terran will figure out an answer to these new toss tricks soon


honestly, if instead of going for medivacs/upgrades after the factory you go for a thor, it could counter the FF nonsense pretty well and your medivacs/upgrades would be maybe 2minutes later but who cares

a thor costs 150/100 for the armory then after that your 1factory+techlab (200/125) can produce 1thor every 60 seconds.

1thor kills 3 zealots or stalkers easily in normal combat.

1 gateway makes about 1.5 zealots a minute. it takes 2 gateways (300 minerals) to make 3zealots a minute, while it costs 350/225 to make the production required to produce 1thor a minute which easily kills 3zealots. So the terran spends a bit more money, but in exchance for that he COMPLETELY ELIMINATED FORCEFIELDS

imagine that, whats more important +1/+1 and stim, or completely removing forcefields? id say completely removing forcefields is much stronger




so parting went for basically a 8gate off two bases

what if jakji went for a 5rax of two bases with thors? 3 reactors on raxes, 2 techlabs on raxes, 1 techlab on factory.
300/200 a minute to make thors
720 minerals/minute to make rines from 3 reactor raxes
200/50 a minute to make marauders from 2 techlab raxes

total cost, 1220 minerals / minute to produce off all those buildings plus 400 minerals/minute on required depots. 2 fully saturated mineral line + 2mules gives about 1900 minerals per minute income, meaning terran can reach the 1620 income he needs before he reaches saturation, enough time/money to buy 1turret in time for DT's or expand to counter a third

That's some ridiculous theory crafting and I didn't even begin to talk about imbalance. The best counter (IMO) is just to get a fast third CC (15cc > 2rax > gas > techlab/rauder/combat shields > 3rd cc), basically putting you on even footing with the protoss. The difference between the two builds is that 3cc can't just fucking push at the 10min mark and kill someone =/ I just really dislike the warp in/forcefield mechanic.

You can't really reactively go thor like that, and it'd be pretty bad against 8gateways. Medivacs/bio tech is the absolute strongest answer to gateway builds (to the extent that if you get 3 medivacs and a decent bio count you can just go kill them), Jjakji just needed to get repair on the bunkers and have his units in slightly better positioning (& nonstop medivacs).

I don't think it was a build order loss, it's just a slightly different version of the 6gate (with a better follow-up). The fact that it exists is utterly retarded, though.

Edit: And 1/1/stim is much more potent than having 2 awkward thors O_o

Really sick micro from both, I think MC kind of messed up in micro a bit there at some points more so than Parting but he had the build order advantage sort of. Parting's surrounds of MC's archon and stalker were insane.
