Balance whine is better because balance whiners actually get temp banned  The Elephants/GOM bashing just goes on and on freely.

What? he only moved from behind the natural because hero's army was attacking his 4th. Doubt he would of moved if didnt know where hero's army was.

Elephants are immune to balance,they are just that good.

you dont play catch up by splitting up a deathball. Starcraft 101

Going all in with 72o occasionally works as well.

Insightful post. Or perhaps inciteful. . .
I recognise that SoulKey took a big risk because he was behind, I just can't believe it worked so well.

So many federation pros have looked like fools that they really shouldn't be worrying about 'losing to kespa players' anymore, and rather be having a competition to see who can actually be the first one to actually win.
P.S. My bet is on Squirtle.

He had to take the risk since he was behind. Usually doesn't work out but it did that time. And HerO could have saved himself a lot of trouble if he got his voidrays earlier. There was no corrupter/infestor support for the BLs.

I think he knew that it was his only chance of winning the game to take out all the tech and if HerO was going after him with full army (like 99% of non-kespa players seems to do) he could take out the two bases and catch up.

Then why it worked so well? Isnt it what calculated risk means, it risks you losing game for "working well".

I'm talking about him moving to the natural, not going into the main.

I think Soulkey should have done slowling rush and pwn HerO, so he goes like Genius and MC lol

was no zerg death ball in bw hence could not have been "starcraft 101"

Stargate again from HerO, also a really fast third base. Soulkey getting lair and spores in his bases

Not so sure this is necessarily a better state of affairs though just remember how it was in bw: everything was imba, so there was no need to balance whine :D
I was always grateful of the almost non-existent balance-whine in osl and pl threads. Mostly people celebrating the games, with a healthy dosage of player rooting/bashing added.
