I really like the way his thor/banshee/rine comp functions on calm, I'm interested to know why he chose to go rine tank w/o ups as opposed to macro thor/rine.

Oh, Kas already, that's game for Mouz. :D Although he was ill when the games were played afaik.

Edit: HerO killed him for this opening in NASTL.

2 best foreign teams, hard to choose who to cheer for but Empire gets my vote to win!

Ouch. Best engagement possible for Kas there.

Nice job by Kas; he did get a little lucky to hit while storm was upgrading, but he was definitely ahead even before that last battle.

That was actually a pretty shit game.

Just a bunch of passive teching and then one player getting caught in an engagement right before his last set of tech kicked in.

I really need that replay of Kas vs. HasuObs, that was such a great build.

Does anywhere know where to get it?

Really popular a couple months ago, but the metagame moved to gasless FE/back to 2 raxing. Pretty simple though, 13 gas tech lab 3 rauder concussive shell, then swap and make a rax while you build 2 more, tech up to fac and start getting ups

edit: commas are cool I should use them sometime

No, but he did a 1 rax marauder FE into 2 rax and fast factory. I really liked the medivac timing, especially with +1. I think he could have done some good damage early on if he would have attacked.

That GG seemed unexpected, but apparently the lings that got in made it count. Nice back and forth series so far. I figure Violet will beat Bigs, and then Mana may beat Violet, then Happy faces Mana in the end :x

That...was weird. I actually thought Kas was going to clean house until mana came out(and he might've beaten mana). I think I'd still rather have violet and happy left than bigs and mana.

Wow, one little miss wall off =/ He ended up concentrating on his main and forgot to micro the hellions and marines at the front.

Little things can make such a big difference in this game.

This series is so intense. To bad one of these teams will be eliminated but they are giving a great show. Although violet just might win it all for Empire.

Yeah, thats the timing >.> your cs and +1 finish by the time your double medivacs pop. SeleCT pioneered the build early last year, bunch of people have variations of it, Kas uses it on his stream often, either with double rax added and slightly later medivacs or just 2 and everything finishing at 9:30

Interesting game, reminds me of Sheth DeMu earlier in the week on daybreak lol
