Because he will then expand twice off 1 gate and outmacro you.


Not sure if you're serious but...

Expanding twice off of 1 Gate is asking to be killed. I wasn't suggesting his opponents not scout him, but that regardless of what they see they should probably assume he has a Dark Shrine proxied somewhere on the map and prepare accordingly.

Last I checked, throwing up a Spore/Turret at each base does not restrict you from crossing the map and killing an extremely greedy player.

I'll give him credit for his clever build on Crossfire, making the best out of a crappy map situation. Beating Ace in PvP and GanZi in PvT, though...not so impressive. Unless he sees a wealth of Protoss players (and they have to be bad at PvP too, his PvP isn't so dominant lately), I see him dropping out of Code S quite quickly.

lol say that to Bomber, he 1 gate x2 expo to kick Bomber to code A easily. InCa is legit, keep on hating if you want. The guy know how to metagame the fuck outta everyone to win. That's the sign of good player who knows to utilize his advantages.


Yeah I watched that Bomber game too. He played like shit. All I was saying is that if you're scouting properly, you can squash a 1 Gate 2 expansion build easily as any race. Just because his opponents don't know how to scout doesn't make him a good player.

He certainly knows how to utilize his advantages, that's how he's stayed in the GSL for so long with gimmicky play at best. That and having an Up/Down group with only one good player in it.

He manages to win and show an occasionally good PvT/PvP, I'll give him that. But holy gimmicks.

Inca kind off reminds me of Rain. Everyone thinks he sucks and doesnt belong into code S and still makes it.

People hated Rain because he cheesed NesTea out ONE TIME. People hate InCa because he goes DTs almost every single game. I was in utter shock when he didn't go DTs today.

Well, people don't really hate InCa. He and his constant DT usage have essentially turned him into a joke kind of like BitByBit.

The fuck is wrong with DTs lol, it's like going cloak banshee and Terran like MVP does it most of the time as well. May be DTs is more risky but they all have the same purpose of harassing or killing opponent when they have a chance lol.


Nothing is wrong with DTs, except for the fact that if your opponent doesn't prepare for them, they do a ton of damage, and if your opponent prepares for them, they do no damage. It's essentially flipping a coin, and we know what kind of demonstration of skill flipping a coin is.

They're great in a BoX to keep your opponent honest and on their toes, but when you do it almost every game (he didn't today, but has in the past) you're just relying on your opponent's mistakes instead of capitalizing on them. There's a huge difference.

The best case scenario of going DT's against an opponent who prepares and gets (static) detection is you have map control but are still way behind. Doesn't sound like solid play to me.

The difference between Cloakshees and DTs is that with good micro you can still do damage with Banshees, even if he has detection. And the greater mobility and map control they bring.

Like I said, I'll give him credit for the clever build on Crossfire that made the best out of a Z-favored map. But winning a PvP against Ace and a PvT against GanZi isn't so impressive. We'll see how he does in Code S.

HAHAHA, Inca never disappoints! I love that he comes with his own set of mind games.
They say that life's a carousel, spinning fast you've gotta ride it well, the world is full of kings and queens who blind your eyes and steal your dreams, it's heaven and hell, oh well.

Seriously? I don't understand the hate he gets at all. He's a very intelligent player.

Well bashing protoss players seems pretty common here, but in the case of InCa I suppose he is hated just as dts are. But I agree, arguing about InCa's level when his results are what they are is just nonsense to me.

My theory is that many people think DTs are cheesy (which is not always the case. DT rushes are quite cheesy, but late game DTs are quite smart), and because Inca is perceived as a player that always goes DTs, people think he is just a cheesy Protoss player, which is clearly not the case.

I don't think Inca is necessarily Code S level, but he definitely earned that Code S spot today, so I'm definitely not complaining about him making it in. Congrats Inca.
