The terran Rain is, FnaticRC Rain, he is still on Fnatic but he hasn't really done much ever since his final in a GSL last year. This is SKT Rain, a totally different beast.


SKT? That's one of the KESPA-teams, ain't it?

And it happens to have some guy named Boxer as a coach.


Two Rains and two Boxers? Or does he coach SlayerS and SKT?

Man I haven't been following SC for too long...


The one and only Boxer is back in SKT but as a coach now.

This Rain is different from the ESF Rain. The Kespa Rain is basically By.Sun.

Hope hero can catch a little bit of a break, opening dts to robo -- and your opponent just never giving up the lead in game 1 has to be frustrating. Not really possible to catch up in the colo count and upgrades after dumping all the gas into dt tech like that and having to play tech catch up. I think they're pretty evenly matched, just the massive tech advantages from Rain's builds don't let off. I haven't seen much of Rain's pvp, but he seems to know what he's doing. I'm used to seeing him with really good harass, but I guess there's really no point in wasting apm and army count when it doesn't matter -- having an inherent advantage cause you can just sustain the tech advantage.

Rain is so good at fending of harrass and just playing ridiculously safe and defensive, I wonder if just trying to be greedier might be a better approach against him, but his scouting is pretty damn good, so i guess he'd adapt in some way.

There will be someone, but not in the next few months.


Happy already beat him and Polt was close.

The most unstoppable player this year in GSL was Squirtle who had 14 wins in a row. Then a broken down Mvp still beat him. Rain can be beat, but he can win the double if things go his way.


Mvp is probably the only one with the insanity and cunning to slay him. CAUSE MVP.

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.


There's only so much retreating you can do before you're back up against a wall (like your own base). And every time you retreat you either give up a better position (like high ground) or you take a bit of damage without firing back.

The real problem is why HerO needs to retreat at all - it's because Rain is either maintaining a supply lead and/or an army composition advantage. That's hard to beat.

Tastosis seem to be ignoring that fact that HerO has opened poorly twice. Semi-fail DT fdirst game and semi-failed inbase 4-gate second game.

I wasn't playing too much attention, but I think Rain had upgrade advantages in both of those games.

He literally defends better with collosi with a better arc, you cant get aggressive against that.
