holding low ground is not a reasonable option because of FF.

VR can force army split into main base, and then FF ramp

I'm probably going to get flamed for this. But is it possible that the fact that MMM has traditionally been so effective meant that other options for terran have just gone unexplored?
I remember a brief period where a very thor-heavy army was a bit of a fad in Korean GM. Is mixing in some BC's or banshees in the ultra late game just silly bio being so light on gas?
Please don't abuse me because I'm just genuinely wondering. Many of the things that have had zergs such as myself QQing in the past have been fixed with metagame as much as patching.

I think part of it is what you say but i think the main reason is how bad mech is vs P. Also when thorzain won TSL with thors they got nerfed


Jinro came back from behind and destroyed a Protoss in the super late game in some tournament yesterday by mass nuking and going BCs to Yamato the Colossi. Was interesting to watch but not sure how viable it is if the Protoss is more prepared.

omg vr micro GODLIKE


He 1A'd to a bunker.


I agree, tbh, don't understand the hype over this one.

he pulled back his void rays really well and kept them alive during the entire fight is what hes talking about micro


I know that... But this isn't some ridiculous marine split or warp prism micro.. He just pulled back two red void rays....


Genius kept them alive, maintained their charge, and was able to use his ground units to stop alive from sniping them.

LOL that english transliteration is so awful

I would say it is more like

yo - uang

the first one is really just "yo" with an accent,

but the second part has a silent letter then a "oh" and "ah" right next to each other so it becomes "ohah" or "uah" and then the circle on the bottom means the "-ng" sound

Genius' micro was perfect. Literally perfect.

you should not be able to win with cheese if its revealed so early

fuck you genius, now other protoss on ladder start doing it more and i get lots of freelosses.

free wins more like, only Genius can still win with this after its scouted.

so if you do your job and scout it then you insta win, unless you're playing Genius in which case I feel sorry for you

Ugh, I just woke up. I need to watch that game again ~_~

Anyways, Alive needs to pull a miracle out now. Only three times has a player come back from a 0-2 deficit in the, what, thirteen seasons of the GSL.

Nope not possible at all everything has been explored and doesnt work except as a 1-2 base allin.


I find that very surprising when things were/are being discovered in BW many years after the game was thought to be figured out.


Different times we didnt have progamers or a huge competititve scene back then.

Marine splits are more entertaining then that, and they're hardly that well-received.

MKP did almost perfect marine splits in November 2010. It's old now :p

I see you guys just look at it as 'pulling back when injured' that is so untrue.

He constantly targeted the right things - depot, bunkers, the correct units, with all his units. He had perfect stalker control to avoid losing them to high ground units. He pulled back all 3 void rays just in time, and kept his charge alive by for just one split second attacking - then stopping - his own zealot that was about to die, he warped in the right units when needed it, he correctly stopped at 3 void rays, he correctly got sentries when he needed to break the front bunker, his forcefields split the units and the ramp perfectly.

That was overall just ... fucking genius.

I might have missed something, I am a zerg player ...

Would getting Stim instead of Combat Shield be better in that situation? Since taking out the voids quickly should be the main goal of the Terran...

That was insane. Genius should have been dead. He was dead. If anyone saw that game up tot he point where alive's high ground bunker finishes they would have said "Nope, terran wins this".

Jaw droppingly good play.

The scout was pretty late, actually. The first void ray was already about to come out. Alive fucked up by not seeing the second gas.


You are completely wrong. 2nd gas doesn't reveal anything. Only the expansion/lack of expansion timing does.


You have no idea what you're talking about. 2nd gas = some kind of 1 base play instead of a 1 gate FE which is standard on that map.
