You nailed it. Naniwa is not a positional player. That's why he lost. He is almost the marineking of foreign toss player. Someone who wants to timing attack and then attack and attack. He isn't a deep strategical/positional thinkiner. Thorzain just outplayed him last game.

Lol you should rewatch MLG MKP games, he knows a shit or two about positionnal play. (See the series vs DRG)

Well, even the Swedish people in this thread seem to disagree about whether it was bm or a compliment.

That's because they disagree on whether he said "du" (you) or "de" (it).

OK, lets say Naniwa warped in zealots into Thorzains base and Tzain had no income or SCV... warping in 20 zealots into Thorzains base would just make Thorzain go across map and kill Nani. His zealots would be attacking building building NOTHING...

It's really tough to say what Nani could have truly done to overcome so many Ghosts. I mean it wasn't as if Tzain actually played better.

You know, if Naniwa sneak one prism in Thorzain's main and warped in 10-20 Zealots instead of suiciding them into the 3rd, that would also either pull Throzain's army out of position or at least split it. Also with that bank he should killed some probes and get more units in his army.

BTW how many feedbacks were there? I don't remember hearing any. Would be better to try some instead of making tons of Archon which have 10 HP after EMPs and do no damage.

I'm no expert i'm only a gold player, but could more storm have been a better idea than so many archons?


That many ghosts. And the way storm works. Theoretically a terran should land every emp. That said if they come in waves they can sneak in. You just need 2-3 money money storms. The thing is thorzain just got the absolute perfect composition. Right amount of medivacs to be an absolute pain in the ass without murdering his army's dps.

It wasn't that bad by naniwa, im not really sure what he was supposed to do. He was building mass archon because he had 8 million gas. What are you supposed to build there to win?

Have more observers and spread them out. It was pretty obvious all the time that Thorzain was bent on taking out those observers.


yeah it just doesn't seem reasonable given how thorzain has literally infinite scans he can just spam them
i dunno man some things about this game just piss me off
props to thorzain for taking advantage of them i mean that is the point of the game lol


Speed Warp Prism with constant heavy harassment would destroy what Thorzain did.


I don't think so. With Vikings out, WP can get sniped. Also, you need to stay at like 170 supply to warp in, which means even if you do warp in, he can A move you.

Thorzain played VERY well. I think P has an advantage late game, and I think 9/10 P wins in those situations. Props to 'Zain.

Yeh you kinda miss the deeper meaning about positioning. Watch Ryung --> Positional strategical player. MKP = Great micro player, but just attack attack basically.

Neither Naniwa nor MKP are strategically positoinal players. They are timing attacks/micro players.
