I'll simplify for the sake of clarity but you can go all-in on two bases without going nexus first into 4 units into your all-in...

It's one thing to do a lot of all-ins, it's another to play overconfident. That's what Incontrol was attacking.
You've got to have trolls under bridges. Otherwise, what's it all about?

T.T

How is Byun's TvZ? he got to the ro8 by playing 3 TvP and a TvT.


It's never been that great. Maps are

Metropolis

Cloud Kingdom

Entombed

Atlantis

Whirlwind

Byun is dead.


What the hell who decided these were the maps -_- so unfair to Byun really.

The map pool just isn't great in general for TvZ..


Is Cloud Kingdom good for Terran in TVZ?

I ve no idea.

No, not really. Broodlords are very strong on that map with all the cliffs, and the way they can force an engagement in a relative open area. There are worse maps in the pool for TvZ ofc...

MC had collosus and STORMS.Charging up there was the worst decision.
He gifted his entire army(MEDIVACS if he had save them there is still a chance but no) for a nexus and all his collosus.
MC counter attacked and destroy his third while MC finished his .
That was game over.


He probably thought that there was no way MC could have had storms yet.


Yeah probably you are right.

But Bosstoss all the way XDDD

Lots of salty Terran tears today. Guess they think their race should still be able to win after trading their entire army for a single nexus.

I hope Taeja finishes bottom of his group next season and drops to Code B, I might like more Terrans around and winning things, but not him... One trick (online only) pony.

I hate when people say this as if you're playing a different game online. If you play this game at a high level, it just sounds like such a ridiculous thing to say. Every LAN match is just one tiny sample of a player's ability, and there are so many things that can go wrong. Of course online is not everything, but it is so easy to have things not go well one day and be criticized endlessly...

You see so often a player goes into a tournament saying "I have great form right now" or "I'm not confident in today's match" and then sometimes things go completely the other way - there are just so many variables in SC2 that a match between players close in skill level can go either way on any day.

To be fair, Zerg or Terran trading an army for a Nexus and ending up ahead happens quite often. Taeja simply sacrificed too much, and lost all his medivacs.

Any terran should know that staying after sniping that nexus is suicide. the concave doesnt matter when storm is ready and units are on 3/4 of HP.

This. I thought MC would have lost today because he didn't have enough time to practise due to HSC 5.

I want another Protoss champion so bad. I don't give a flying fuck who it is either. MC, Seed, Naniwa, i don't care!


Naniwa to shock the world tomorrow!!! And Byun will have to do some crazy shit to beat NesTea on that map pool.

How can a terran be ahead after trading his army for a Nexus?
Its not like T can remax as quickly as Z (or P)?

considering MC opened blink, collosus with range, charge, I would very much agree so, though MC had 0/0/0. Not sure if Taeja realised that or he might have exercised more caution.

Well, sad for Taeja.

We're dangerously close to a no-terran Ro4 after only 2 T in the Ro8. Hope Byun can make it to the semis.

Then, I don't care about the finals, just want to see an amazing serie !
