It'd be interesting to see a battlecruiser switch in that situation (maxed terran with heaps of resources). Supernova did really well but his army always seemed much weaker than it should be given his huge advantage... in the TvP matchup you just max on bio, there's no real high tech units (besides a few ghosts) that you mix in to make it really dangerous. It was always a danger that genius would kill supernova's relatively weak army at some point and roll him before he could reinforce.


Terrible idea, by the time you max with BCs the Toss would have had ample time to scout the switch and prepare an ample defense, + all the extra burst and firepower of BCs is negated by feedback, which also rapes a big chunk of a BCs HP, you'd have to EMP your own BCs, in which case again you can't benefit from having Yamato.

Anyway, if someone would have told me last season, that Genius would lose a long macro game to a Terran, on Daybreak, and more specifically to Supernova, I'd have laughed in the guys face.

In TvT there have been late game BC switches which have gone completely unscouted (cf virus vs supernova today), no reason why you couldn't also catch a P off guard. Especially since the standard game is to just make bio all game, there would ordinarily be no reason to scout the terran's base. Also re: high templar, that turns into a micro battle where the terran wants to get yamatos off before he gets fedback.


It'll work like once or twice but then protoss will just use their observers more.

Not even whining, great play by supernova, but seriously, how the hell is toss supposed to beat this army and why are people complaining terran lategame is to week?! With ghost/cloak/drop you can do soo much and toss can just run around like an idiot until he misses a nuke

Genius' army was stronger for pretty much all the game, except at the very very end. The problem was that he didn't handle the harrass well. "running around like an idiot" is not how you handle drop harrass; you have to split effectively / have units in position properly.


Yeah and then what? IT seems like the terran army is actually a lot stronger in a direct engagement, if you fight in a choke / theres even a pf I dont even see toss winning this fight. You also wont have detection against ghosts / vikings and 25 cloaked ghosts with no detection is kinda hard to stop :/

SuperNova showing that stacking in a ball and fighting late game protoss in one massive battle is pretty stupid and goes against everything Bio has going for it.

It really felt that Genius really disappointed with his drop defense and multitasking there. He's done perfect defense before so it just seems really weird that he got outclassed like that.

Another thing is, and I'm theory crafting, but if Genius would have just pushed and went for the basetrade scenario, and camped Supernova's production (if he managed to get there), would it have been different. I recall a game between MMA and Oz on Calm Before The Storm where Oz was totally owned for 95% of the game, then he just pushed out with storm and Colossi, camped MMA's main and won.

Whatever it is, don't want to take anything away from Supernova's win though. Great showing. Hope he beats Virus now.

Besides, the future of TvP is SkyGhost Terran.

Are you kidding me?

No observers, losing templars with full energy left and right(literally everywhere, all the time) because he couldn't keep up, clumping units and losing them due to move commands, and yet you can find people thinking that this game means that everything is going smoothly in TvP.


What goos are the templars against 25 ghosts? What good are obs if they fall from the sky instantly?
I really dont see a way to win an engagement as toss when the terran has pfs everywhere and mass ghost / viking

Everyone has known this for a long time now. Mass ghosts, nukes, planetary fortresses.
The thing is, it takes even longer to reach that point than Protoss reaching the 3-3, colossus + storms, 15 gateway, which is what Terrans have a problem with.

Tasteless is going to say OUTCLASSED!

You heard it here first.

Probably say supernova has the best tvp in the world.



This is the definition of outclassed, lol. And if supernova's TvP went like this every game, he'd easily be top 3 TvP. He used to be the definition of solid TvP before he fell off.


I do not agree. Supernova just did what a lot of T's are not doing, but the tools are there. Genius as a P defended very well aganist such amazing multi task, but always the initiative was from Supernova (the harasser always knows where he is going, the defender cannot predict where exactly the harass will land), so Genius did a less visible, less fancy, but still a spectacular job at defending such multi pronged attacks when P is not efficient to defend at multiple locations.

Supernova win it in amazing fashion, showing tools that many top T's are not even considering for lategame TvP, but Genius put up a great fight, it was not a rape as some fanboys/noobs are saying.

Genius didn't defend well, at all, he had no observers, no cannons and donated a ton of full energy hts, also, terrans have lost plenty of games by spending resources on useless when scouted nuking and drops, you really should lurk more before calling people noobs.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie
