EPTI don't get why terrans in that situation don't go for the mass orbitals earlier. Freeing up ~30 pop for extra army is really useful for breaking through protoss.

From there, Rain didn't make many mistakes. Also, as others have said, Rain was able to get back into it because of MKPs passive play (investing in CCs over army). Rain made Colo, 3/3, templar. | ||

If we accept this as true, then this is bad design of a game, where when you are ahead you have to all in as the clock ticks to your death | ||

Its amazing how fast these KeSPA players have gotten this good, they dont make the small mistakes the "sc2" pros still are doing, clumping up HT's, forgetting upgrades, missing a beat on the production, stopping the harrass in mid/late-game. Rain is also so resilient, ive seen him on Daybreak a couple of times being so behind, but still he fights back and win 20 mins later! | ||
