TheStC always picks the absolute wrong time to unsiege.

I don't know about that, but one moment of not being sieged certainly costs any Terran the game, regardless of their play up to that point.

Well considering the entire advantage STC had this game was because Violet moved his queens from the ramp for 5 seconds and lost 20 workers, i don't think there is that much to complain about...

TvZ is unforgiving, that's why it's fun.



Zerg vs Terran is incredibly forgiving. For example, you can let 6 hellions into your main, let them roast a lot of drones there, then come back down to your natural and get a few more kills before finally cleaning up those Hellions. But it's ok, if you manage to get a good engagement, you still win the game. If you don't, then the battle is about even economically, because after killing those Hellions you can make drones, drones, and drones.

But I agree, Terran vs Zerg is incredibly unforgiving. Your Marines get clumped up together and get fungaled? Oh, well there goes that push. Oh, you don't micro perfectly and let two banelings through? Oh, well there goes that push. Siege Tanks unsieged? Oh, well there goes that push. You walk over two burrowed banelings? Oh, well there goes that push. And remember, whenever you lose a push without doing major damage, you essentially lose the game because Zerg jumps miles ahead of you by holding down D.


Incredible bias

All you say is true IF the terran is in a horrible spot to begin with. If terran is in a good economic spot they can afford to trade armies, it's not like if you let 2 banelings hit your marines you're done, have you not seen games being played the last 2 years?

Game changed a lot duirng last 2 years. What I can tell you is before patch, its superior economy vs efficent trade, now is superior economy vs even trade.


That's not what I'm argueing, he said that basicly getting caught unsieged or being hit by 2 banelings will end a push and will coclude in terran losing the game. I find it a very wierd thing to say out of context of an actual game.

Extended-ception.

you can only have extended series in the same portion of the tournament so if they met for a 3rd time (like in the finals) it wouldnt be extended series afaik because it would only apply to this "group" stage

day[9] said that he doesn't like this play... and if I interpret the intricacies of the circlejerk correctly then this play should roll over his opponent

I really feel like Day9 has completely lost all of his analysis ability. What the hell happened...


You realize this now? -_-

he went from one of my favorite casters to one of my least favorite casters.



When I first started watching sc2 events
"Fuck Yes Day9 is casting"

Now when I watch an event
"Fuck Day9 casting"


he's actually not that bad.


Yeah, the day9 hate really doesn't make much sense, I think people just listen to too many of his casts and just get tired from hearing the same day9 tone/voice so much that they get tired of it the same way anyone gets tired of anything after experiencing it for so long, and then they make up faulty rationalizations for this sentiment (when, for example, they were completely clueless/new to SC2 when they first started watching sc2, so they mistakenly believe that Day9 does not offer any information now when the truth is that they simply didn't know as much information back then so they believed day9 to offer more than he actually did in the past).


Eh, I'd like to think I'm not very biased. But, analytically compared to Artosis he knows nothing. Then when you listen to players like Hasuobs and Grubby cast the comparison is just insulting to them.

Play by play he's decent I guess, but Violet vs STC on Metropolis was perfect example of why I'm not fond of him:

"OH MY GOD 5 MINUTE 3rd BASE BY VIOLET!!!" *he literally screamed this at the top of his lungs* Really day 9?

Also, I just think his brother is much funnier and clever (but that part is biased I'll admit)

well at least day9 still shows some passion about the game
unlike dj shit wheat who has less game knowledge than a gold player
(excerpts from today's violet vs stephano game)
what you see: violet muta kills stephano mineral lines (15 drone + queen), deny steph's 3rd
wheat: violet's mutas didnt do any major damage and now stephano's infesors are out violet stand no chance
<3 min later>
wheat: stephano has one of the best macro in the world he will surely catch up
what you see: violet goes from 20 to 50 supply up

I mean i am okay with this since i have eyes for myself but if a bronze league player was watching this he would be incredibly confused and misguided

if you dont know shit then just be quite and say whats on the screen, dont make bold predictions

Sorry bro but you're hearing things, like voices in your head with DJWheat's voice. You're extra-over-exaggerating what he said like a wild Day9 casting 2 lings catching a drone offguard

It is actually not possible - they drop match history when they transition from Open Bracket to Group and from Group to Championship bracket. If they had kept it, we could have ended up with double extended series and the world might have ended.
