After watching a lot of replays, I don't understand why Protoss doesn't go for a well executed 4 gate pressure after expansion against Naama. Cloak would not be in time (after expansion) to kill or damage the protoss even with a very delayed robotics and 1 or 2 bunkers can be easily broken by the 4 gate pressure with chrono'ing the gates.

Makes me wonder. Does any Protoss want to give me info on that?


he sometimes does 1rax FE into 4raxes and bad things happen to the 4gater. I think they just don't want to throw the coin.


How is 4 barracks pressure a problem to a 4gate after expansion? At best the Terran player will see it and deny it, but cannot counter nor pressure. You have 4 gateways and will at worst be behind in economy a bit, but still with superior tech as you have gas while he has not...

Now again, whats the reason not to do it :D?


hmm you're a bit better than me but in my experience 4rax 2gas has a nice window against 1gFe 4g.
i don't remember which foreigner T who said that kor P almost never do this build and don't do quick pressure after 1g FE in PvT.


Would just love to see a bit of aggression out of HerO ! Guess we won't find out sadly.

just a 3gate expo would do wonders if you can prevent scouting

Lol, if you think that was "outplay" rather than a massive gamble you need to take off your biased goggles.


Shiori, I normally agree with you, but a hidden CC is a good plan against protoss. Most standard builds are so thin on units and rely on turtling, sneaking in a CC isn't bad if you plan to deal with it once it is found.

Losing is getting outplayed.

I didn't say it was a bad idea. I said it's basically a build order win. I mean, yes, Naama obviously deserved to win the game, but there wasn't any showcase of immense skill to "shut up the haters" or whatever.


You shouldn't need to showcase immense skill to shut the haters up. Hating on players is pointless and damages the SC2 foreign scene, as well as this website.


Doesn't mean it doesn't happen

this

I'm looking at Naama's build and still can't understand how he just doesn't die to any 3-4-5 gate


I would hazard a guess as to it being because not a lot of pro players have studied a lot of Naama replays.

Such patient play by HerO, very well handled.. Naama must be feeling like he's running out of options here, HerO held that very convincingly.. Wouldn't be surprised to see some heavy proxy rax action in this game

Sure is nice that I don't need to gringe when watching these commercials because everything they've said about the Asus DirectCu II is actually true, they tend to be really cheap as well.

I don't really judge skill based on my opinion of a paticular build. As far as we know, Naama watched 20 of Hero's games on this map and knew that he never scouted that location. People downplay the thought that may go into those sorts of risks and just assume that it is a thoughtless "Well, this will either win or it won't".

No one ever downlplays a players skill when a poker player is bluffing, or a football team for doing a pass fake. I get tried of it in SC2.

But the proof will be if Naama can follow it up and win the set.


Maybe it's just me, but I find Naama's tactical genius difficult to maintain in light of how weirdly poorly he engaged that Chargelot/Archon force.


I did not notice that part, since I am watching on "crappo-vision" on my Iphone. You could be proven right in the next 2 games, but we will see. Naama is not going to be able to take that big of a risk again, so he will need to dig a bit deeper to find something else.

Millenium TV got their player to start his game before any other Group C or D game started. So the only broadcast is in French.

Go figure.
