If you call a slight lead being miles ahead in tech, upgrades, economy, fending off harass before crushing your opponent with a vastly superior army, then yes, slight lead.

With one player demolishing the other in a fight? :D


PvP fights beyond 1 base aren't close.

Nop they aren't they take ages to kill colossi; void rays are way too expensive, fragile and open a huge timing attack for your opponent to kill you with it.

Midgame PvP is Colossus or nothing.

Carriers. And/or Mothership.

Carriers have same problem as in other match ups - they take way too long to transition into. Even with a bunch of stargates chronoing out carriers theres a long time that you're vulnerable.

rofl, it doesnt help to be cute with warp prism when u cant control your army


That's a pretty stupid statement considering it's HerO playing.
There was just NO reason to attack there. Rain had 3 more colossi, HerO was doing harassment damage. Just tech to mothership and be fine, WHY HERO.


ok tell me why did he lose then? Only reason i can see is because he didnt control his army right. He should have retreat when he knew how rain's army was. Rain attacked when Hero was beeing cute and focusing on killing probes getting gas.



Rain didn't attack, HerO attacked. So there's your solution: don't attack there. His army was weaker, he had too many zealots that just melt.
So there. That's why he lost.

On paper, you can counter it with air. But in practice, the time it you take to build enough production, units and upgrades is just too long unless your opponent just sits there for 15 minutes. It is enough hard than BC transition for terrans since terrans usually already have 2-3 starports and some upgrades for vikings.

game 1: positioning. game 2: composition.

And Rain got those advantages by playing a little bit better throughout the game.
Being a ho doesn't automatically make you "immoral" or a bad person, but it does make you a ho.
