The funnest part about the korean tournaments recently is to read each excuse people come up with for every ESF player loss to a KESPA player.

Loser always plays bad - it's the law of sports, and even an underdog who plays the best game level of his career can beat anybody. Kespa makes SC II pros look bad cuz they outplay em, Rain was close to losing it but he kept coming back with nice storms and mis-storm would had ment end for him.

I dunno, suiciding all those ghosts wasn't Rains doing. He was playing solidly though.

you could say rain having good ht positioning forced mkp to get desperate with his emps


what good ht position. mkp simply rallied his entire ghost at tower, forgot about them, and they got demolished by zealots and colossus. There was no HT involved

i thought you meant during the actual engagements. mkp lost his ghosts due to not paying attention but thats attributable to the zealot harass in the main. also not much you can do when there are charging zealots on your ghosts anyways


uh, you can move your ghosts back. Its not like he has xel naga sights and can get away from them. He lost half of his ghosts before he even notices and pulls them back away, threw away like 8 ghosts and saved 3

He can get by with mech but not in this match-up.


he played two protoss and 2-0'd them both really easily ;o

not sad for mkp this time, he got cocky, chose not to end the game, got punished for it, rain's third was absolutely free kill, yet he let it stand, I even thought that he was saving energy for mass manner mules b4 attacking.

Why is this cocky? He made mistakes and seems to be way too nervous. That's all!

because he and everyone that plays this game at a mildly decent level knows that the game was over, sun had no way to attack or defend his third, there were no hts. no nothing, don't you understand? mkp let him live, that's cocky.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Doa is officially in but sick... some talks of having Grubby come in too. I hope Torch gets a shot, love that guy

I thought that Torch had moved to LoL for good? It would be awesome to have him back to SC2 at least part-time.


Oh I didn't know that I can always hope haha

i do not understand why not every terran prevents the probe scout like this. it's so valuable to deny scouting. much more than those few minerals

im a protoss player and honestly I have no idea how MKP lost this


To combat the protoss death ball you spread and arc. MKP kept running into a position where it was impossible to do that. If you try and kite a ball of units against storm, chargelots and colossus you're just gonna fucking die.


Marineking lost because he did not harass enough in the midgame and lost 5-6 ghosts for free.
He was maxed and didn't attack.

You can't play mech versus SC2 protoss.


You can, it's just hard.

There's plenty of ways to do it. Check the strat forum.


No. Chargelot Immortal beats every mech composition.


You serious? Proper TvP mech is banshee hellion thor into seige tank battlecruiser ghost raven. I don't see chargelot immortal holding either of those.

I figured you were talking out of your ass, now I know for sure.

Mech doesn't work against a competent Protoss. At all. There's a reason it doesn't exist at the pro level.


Do you even PLAY competent protosses? Are you top 100 GM? If not, there are more than a few Masters level terrans that happily mech all the time, no problem. If the basic definition of competency is "higher than high masters" then every single person commenting in this chat is talking crap.

Mech works fine until you get to GM and if you get to GM you're probably good enough with bio anyway to win engagements with it so the whole argument is moot.

As the discussion started from a game between Rain and MKP, we can disregard the builds that work 'up to high master'. Yes, at amateur level you can pull off mech. You could pull off mech a long time ago at the pro-level. Then protoss learned how to defeat it. Only that at the lower levels, protoss doesn't have enough experience against mech. Let the mech strats rise and I fully expect them to crush just as hard in the diamond/master range, as soon as protoss have sufficient experience.

He was still better than everyone at IEM Cologne.

being better than 60 does not mean he is better than 80. etc. don't know what you are not getting

His TvP has always been impossible to get a read on. Even with a pretty good record overall he still randomly looks horrible sometimes.

Beating feast is a good sign about his ability to hold 2 base all ins though.

Storm allows Protoss to get back into game when he is down 2 bases and 60 supply. Such a fucking joke. And don't say "Oh, he didn't micro against it," "He A-moved into the storms" ... That's exactly how the Protoss fights with their army, such bullshit. Broken game.

Rain was harassing MKP's main with Warp Prism and Zealots. MKP pulled back and left his Ghosts vulnerable. Yes, it was MKP's mistake, but it was a mistake that Rain sort of "forced."

And those are really important units. And they were at the Xel'Naga Tower so it's not like Rain's army came out of no where. His multitasking was being taxed.
