You don't have to go blind nexus first to do an immortal all-in. it just hits harder when you do.

in this last game DRG 15 hatched, so it's not like the nexus first gave parting an enormous advantage (compared to what it gives vs 15 pool)

It's a razor's edge build; the 10 seconds+ he gets from the nexus first let him get across the map without wasting a forcefield/trading units, which then gives him that critical mass to pick up an 'unstoppable' win.

The issue is half greed going unpunished and half not reacting correctly/quickly enough. DRG didn't play perfectly that game by any means.

People are way too quick to jump to 'imba'. It's an execution play and it should be valid; whether the zerg needs a better counter (faster burrow speed research maybe?) is a genuine concern, but reading it in LR threads is somewhat frustrating.

ST vs MVP

Game 4

Game 5:

P1 PartinG <Grand Lagoon> P7 Tails


TAILS CANNON RUSH

TAILS FUCKING UP SECOND CANNON PLACEMENT LOL

Stalker incoming, the first pylon from Parting is dying, but Parting's zealot is headed toward the base. Parting continues to mine, BUT HIS STALKER DIES.

Parting's zealot makes it, kills some probes, cancels a cannon, but dies to probes. Parting has reexpanded

5:00 warpgate is going to finish, but tails does not have a gateway.

OKAY FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE I SEE WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT

Crazy game, is there a reason to follow up a semi-successful cannon rush with a gateway instead of a cannon'd expand?

when a new map comes out for gstl teams usually have one of their protoss practice the map and find the best cannon rush placement, then they unveil it as a snipe build. it happened with musphel last season.
