Kill third, retreat, profit. I don't get why he pushed it further.

TLO was already at elfis base. He would get a massive blow to his economy and TLo could retreat with Nydus and don't lose his army while retaining 2 bases. TLO forced him into basetrade, it's how the build is planned.


Exactly, TLO would demolish his economy if he done that and would still have all his drones having only lost a hatchery.

I still think the protoss player can just load up 2 immortals into the warp prism and snipe the nydus. Just micro against the spines like ZeNEXTREME does against roaches!

I think the correct response for the Protoss player is to ignore the third and Natural and head straigth into the main and kill the Spines before they are done

No, it's not. He could just retreat after sniping the third and defend with Sentries/Cannons. It's working because it is new.


Riiight. because TLO didn't do this 1000 times before on ladder/practise. He plays a build where he knows if the Toss turns around after killing the third he loses? I don't think so. He figured this build out over a period of time, practise and refinement.

James summed up protoss pretty nicely there I must say, didn't know he had such deep knowledge of sc2!

Doesn't mean to much if the oponents don't react accordingly because they don't have enough practice against that.

Also I'm pretty happy with the turn out of the tournament so far. The top 3 are all players I want to do well, so the result dosn't matter as much, enabling me to just enjoy the games for the games themselves Only improvement for me might have been Kas over Thorzain but we can't have everything can we ^_^

Elfi had a sentry in his main base, waiting to ff the ramp. TLO got lucky / Efli made a big mistake and the sentry died.

Well they havn't had a lot to cheer for in long time so let them have their fun until Thorzain executes him in the finals

You realize Mana's worst matchup is Zerg and when interviewed said he feels like he has no idea what's he's doing in the MU currently.

Look, I'd love to see TLO do awesome stuff, but I'm not convinced it's actually a great strategy until I see it work against someone who's a real strong PvZ player - of which there aren't a lot of currently in Europe.
