I know what you're trying to say. Yet nothing you've said actually disproves my statement.
Those with superior control at end-game in TvP are generally favoured.

of course, how does he attacks the PF? He kept harassing the third and the fifth, but it wasnt enough. I'm not whining, just saying there is how to win lategame tvp and byun just showed that.
Sad for genius though, really like his play D:

I don't even know why we're arguing about this since we're saying basically the same thing
BUT YOU'RE STILL WRONG :3

As OP as that looked, Genius had a deathball about ten minutes earlier and threw it away attacking the planetary for no reason.
Brotoss, hold your whine. This is not your fight.

Unless something has changed since i looked at the stats then yes. With the mothership core having 200 energy, and energize being 25 energy, a mothership core can fill 8 HTs energy gauges, giving them 2 storms each. That means with some quick warp ins and a few casts you can have up to 16 storms at the expansion the terran is pushing after killing your army, limited up to the 16 by your bank (templars you can produce) and core energy (even at low energy, say 50, you can fill 2 HTs energy, giving 4 warp in storms).
I think energize is 100 energy ?

Well it wouldn't of been as strange if he forced fights in front of the cannons and not out in the open xD He was trying drop harass to good success and staying back on his cannons but then he would venture off and not take his 5th at the right time causing him to lose it constantly.

Is that not the same as saying that the matchup, disregarding whether it is thought to be entertaining or not, is not in such a bad shape?
Skill certainly matters a lot in those situations. And we do not see a lot of players really hitting any kind of skill ceiling, at least not at the moment or in the foreseeable future.

Pretty sad how people take situations like that completely out of context.
'Late game TvP is fine - check out Byun vs Genius and Byun's mass ghost play' whilst utterly ignoring how the rest of the game played out.

I feel like SKT|rain is one of the best protoss player i ever saw!
he is so smart, fast, really good control, patience.. it's like a perfect protoss
He lost against happy and he isn't perfect but he is probably the best Protoss right now.. especially in PvT.. PvP i don't think i ever saw him play and in PvZ i'm more impressed with Liquid'hero's latest games

It works that way. I have a 100 % winrate vs TSL hyun who beat MVP, and still they won't add my name to the "Current Terran King" list.
