statstics do not denote balance.

the roach all in/timing was pretty weak from leenock, fairly simple game for taeja ~

how else are you supposed to determine balance? haha

its incredibly hard to do determain balance. you need serious in depth game/replay analysis

Stats are affected by player strength, and if a player is better, they will go further in a tournament so they will affect the stats more than any other player. if MVP goes 16-0 and wins the GSL, terran will probably be favored that month in the match up, doesnt mean its imba, just means MVP is the best player.


Long-term statistics are not affected by this

yes but long term statistics dont take into account meta game shifts (which can change balance) nor patches. If you look at a 3 month period, it could have been T favored first month, zerg favored 2nd month, and balacned third month, so stats say 50% the whole time. Seriously, stats mean nothing

they're still the best thing we have for determining balance, i see no other way to reliably determine balance, unless we have a pro who is equally top KR GM in all races and is unbiased.

why do we have to decide balance? if we dont have a reliable method of determing balance, is it not best to just say "we dont know"
also you dont need a top KR GM to tell it for us and playing all races doesnt mean you arent biased towards a race.

Has anyone recognised that Taeja scouted the double roach warren and then started to prepare for an incoming attack?
If he didn't see it, the game would have turned out a bit different. Because this was a huge bulk of roaches.


It's hard to say whether Taeja thought the double roach warren was a mistake or not, because we don't know if he saw them both researching.

i think he saw them both researching. he started 2 bunkers and a missle turret immediately after the scan


it doesn't matter a lot. He beats that army with bio, Leenock thought it was Mech and made mass roaches, hence he loses.


If you know properly how to play starcraft2 ,you will know the missle turret matters as live or die!


Lol, Teaja beat that attack by walking out and 1a-stimming open field without any bunker or turret support.
He built that stuff because better safe than sorry.


It's hard to argue with anyone sub diamond league which I assume you belong. Why do you think he made 2 roach warrens? Mistake? No, getting inside terran's bases, then taeja has to waste all energy on scans and split his amry. And you know what?roach is not that uselss in small in engagement.

Taeja vs Leenock
Game 4: Antiga Shipyard.

Taeja at 8, Leenock at 2

2:00
Double rax vs hatch first again

3:00
Leenock getting gas, taeja getting marines.

4:00
Marines and a few SCVs heading towards leenock's natural. Lings on the way for leenock. Taeja retreats and is building an expo.

5:00
Speed on the way for leenock. Marines are intercepted on the way back, but the lings are cleaned up eventually.

6:00
Third command centre on the way for Taeja. Leenock taking a third


8:00
Taeja going for banshees and hellions. Baneling nest on the way for leenock.

9:00
Leenock constantly scouting with a few lings, even taking out an SCV. Hellion harass gets shut down by queen, lings, and buildings.

9:30
Banshee harass starts, taking down a queen, but loses the banshee. Leenock making many units, ready for a baneling bust.


11:00
Leenock not moving out. Taeja takes his third, hellions roam the shipyard, but are unable to find many lings. Leenock decides to take the centre expansion while baneling bombs and a few zerglings takes out a few hellions.

13:00
Taeja ahead in supply, army is tank-marine. Spire on the way for leenock. The dropping starts for taeja whilst his army moves out. Taeja wrests control of the middle.


14:00
Drones sent to Leenock's building 5th instead of the centre. Good for those drones anyway because the 4th is getting seiged.

16:00
Greater spire on the way for leenock. Full infestor energy on 7 infestors. Taeja skirting around the outside of the creep.

18:00
Broodlords are done. Taeja's drops getting shut down whilst leenock moves out to the middle.

Well, Leenock is still one of the only Zergs really comfortable in that situation. His control of Hive-units is scary.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.
