Genius just playing with his food, tbh. He will follow this up with an awkward attack and win.

You guys are all criticizing fantasy saying he's playing like shit. To me eyes, he's showing a way higher level of play than I have ever seen from a SC2 terran. His mechanics may be bad right now. It might always be bad, after all he has around 250 apm .

he had:
Supply block
no scan ahead before heading to a cliff
poor macro
idle medivac hanging on zerg's base after the drop is cleaned
no scan ahead to confirm tech switch

I can care less if he's getting supply blocked, or has poor macro or forget medivacs. This is mechanics. I'm talking about RTS intelligence.


You are opening a can of worms in this section. Not many people here will understand the notion you are trying to push, and what you are saying rarely happens in sc2. So in fact Fantasy even if he played intelligently but put mediocre macro would be crushed in SC2 circumstance where lining up your economy with timing will trump any intelligence.

User was warned for this post

what is this notion that we do not apparently understand?

Where people could play bad macro vs players with perfect macro in BW because they could task those players on different fronts. In SC2 macro has to perfectly lined up with anything you do otherwise you will fail. So players who had tendency not to prioritize macro but aggresive play in BW like Fantasy will have to prioritize macro play before anything else.

bomber loses to many players who have worse macro than him. so does marineking. macro is important in sc2, but hardly the be-all-and-end-all. if you robot out a build, you're not guaranteed a win.

I simply tried to put the thought I BELIEVE Top wanted to showcase, though i probably sounded to agressive doing so. Nevermind that.


There is no point. If you are playing intelligently you will be focusing on important things not only space control and unit composition. It's called common sense. And by the way, yes, Fantasy tryhard to multitask too hard giving up all his macro, which is more bad for him than his opponent.

I like how everyone only focuses on his macro and ignores his superb micro and multitasking.

He did all the little things like moving small pockets of units to snipe infestors and keeping his marauders in front to soak damage. Whenever roro counter-attacked, fantasy was microing on multiple fronts. If you think he sucks, then find me 5 esfi terrans who can multitask and micro as well as fantasy can.

His multi tasking and micro weren't superb at all. Passable against a zerg playing terribly isn't superb.

If this is the last code S tournament for WOL, then there shouldn't be a code A for next season, right?

Because that code A will just be prelim for a code S tournament in hots, should be played under hots.

I dont get it, people have been saying for years that sc2 macro is super easy, but when the people they salivate over cant do it competently its suddenly because they were trying (and failing) to do something else. Aggressive strats do work in sc2, multi tasking does work in sc2, playing cheesy does work in sc2.


The reason why macro is easy in sc2 is partly because, until the BW players started switching over, most terrans did not spend as much effort multitasking and microing on multiple fronts. When you add in that many things to do at once, macroing superbly becomes extremely difficult. If you watch the BW players, they are literally everywhere at once.

His micro was nothing special. This is stuff that pretty much every code A and code S terran does while macroing. In addition when macroing is important, you should make it a priority especially when it is apparently so easy. At this level you can expect decent micro, multitask and macro. You can't just say Fantasy was focusing on some weird aspect that us mere mortals can't understand and which doesn't matter in SC2.
