Don't set a bad example for the nubs. Stalkers are garbage against stim, combat shield, medivac equipped bio. It's all about the context of a post 
I think blink, chronoboosted upgrades and forcefields would like to have a word with you....

the sole purpose of stalkers in pvt longer than 9 mins is to shoot up

As a protoss player, mid-diamond, I find Ace to be agonisingly painful to watch, he seems to do completely illogical moves.
Im not saying I could even get in a position to have a GSL terran on the backfoot, but good lord.
You just busted his front. Got a massive supply lead and harvester lead. You couldnt kill the army on the low ground, why would you think you can walk up a ramp and do even better.
:S
And the game before, spots an immenent attack on his front door. And goes haflway through the map with his immortals, and brings them home after he loses the battle, doesnt just FF with sentries and use his units to deal with the drops.
He just seems to throw games away on a whim with really bad moves.
Not only that, but in that last game he had a huge opportunity to move up the ramp.
Waited aaaaaaaaaages for a pylon to finish...and then warps in 1 stalker and moves up....
What part of your brain says, here is my chance, if I just wait 30 seconds for this pylon, 1 extra stalker will counter the extra 2 bunkers and 3-4 marines and marauder hes making at once... :S

Mmm.
In my opinion, one of the reasons First does well vs Taeja in late game is his use of Blink Stalkers to kill Ghosts as they are trying to zone out the Protoss army.
So I respectfully disagree with that statement.

MKP going what some people may refer to as 'full foreigner' in the final game of the group. And dear lord, that was equal parts painful and amusing to me.
Yeah, urgh I remember that group now that you mention it

I like that stalkers are horrible but necessary in PvT, it reminds me of dragoons in BW PvT ^_^;

After that Bunker-salvage I wouldn't put it past him to lose a game in Medivac drops.
I am still a little bit sad that Thorzain doesn't participate. He probably wouldn't have advanced to Code S but he could have beaten Ace and Hack and I think if he gets underestimated he can also beat Gumiho and Sniper. In Up&Downs a lot of stuff can happen.

yay puzzle sniper.. Sniper it's all up to you to do something not horribly metropolis-like and make this an interesting game!
|
puzzle looks like the guy that fights everyone and has no allies and dies at the very end

Correct me if I'm wrong, after all I'm only a D- player, but dragoons are much more important than stalkers in PvT.

sniper, puzzle, gumiho and hack has pretty sick vT. i dont think he had a chance to even get top 4

Dragoons seem like they are pretty darn relevant in any match up, except maybe late game pvz, but hey, I'm a noob so I'm probably wrong

That is a really curious timing between starting plus one and warp gate research.

You underestimate the craziness that is Up&Down matches.

No offense to gumiho or hack but as much as I love them, they're pretty inconsistent...Game 1 was I guess more that Sniper completely outplayed Gumiho by an amazing constant tech switch, but Gumiho and Hack both derp hard at times.

Can anyone help me I would be glad. Im at a computer at my School and have GomPlayer through an USB. But when I try to launch from the site, the computer dont find the USB player. I can start GomPlayer. Is there any way to get the stream from the Player instantly?
