I missed the beginning of this Daybreak game. What did I miss? Did Taeja try a hidden base or fast third? Why was his CC flying north towards his natural?

Trying to hide his CC for mind games, MC sees the 2rax and gets defensive so taeja can secure a lead.

I really don't understand Korean Protoss. Colossi force vikings, reduce medivac count and don't allow for as fast upgrades. The style MC playes is very easy to beat compared to a colossus style. You can just have mass medivacs, super fast upgrades and a bit later add on ghosts... every engagement you can win due to control while against Colossi, its a ton harder.

why does it slow down upgrades?
Vikings cost less gas than medivacs


Don't need as much medivacs as you need vikings. You need a second starport and viking upgrades against Colossi as well. In total it should be a lot more gas.

well true if you get another starport it will be more gas. But then it won't slow down medivac production. And plus, terrans constantly have 1-2k gas once late game hits. Seems like that just lets terrans use that gas more easily.


Once you scout colossi, you need to get 2 port vikings non-stop until you hit critical mass of vikings, can't mix in quiet the medivac count you would need. Also Terran having massive amounts of overgas isn't true in every case either. Really depends on how the game looks.

Ah i see what you mean. I just prefer not starting with colossi since then you can use warp prisms without them being shot down instantly. Which lets you protect your HTs from EMP and gives you the ability to harass. I think that is worth not making colossi until lategame.

There has to be some reason why MC is doing it, do you have any idea what it is?


Colossi openings are weaker to drop harass and a little less mobile. Also you can't be as aggressive early on if you wish to do so ... that would be my only hint of him playing like that.

I guess so yeah.

Especially if he saw any of Taeja's vP recently, he's been tearing people apart with drop play loads recently, colossus may not cut it vs that kind of aggression.

that's your opinion.

They are. However I think the quality is a bit low for music but they should be really good for gaming.


MC with a huge advantage right now, let's see what Taeja is going to do about this.

FOR THOSE ASKING ABOUT MC'S HEADSET:

'kay thats there now.

Thanks! Yeah I knew it was obviously a siberia but I was wondering. Probably not good for audio and whatnot, but still looks sweet and likely pretty nice for gaming ^^ Dang it's sexy.

Edit haha Shikyo, high-five :D

but oh never mind so expensive :X maybe later. I just got a pair of very nice in-ear headphones so I'll just do with my laptop's built in mic lol.

Man so many mind-games.

Too many forcefields spent from MC to make that bust work.. Again, what an insanely clutch desicion to stick by that tower from TaeJa, so good
