In front of your ramp, so your opponent can't just ignore you and go through it.

Rock out with your Socke out!

he could have moved up the ramp after killing the 2nd bunker

I've gotta say, this IEM has been pretty great so far, I'm loving the production value improvements. QXC on the analysis desk is great.

Ultimate pre-stim anti timing from Kas. >_<
And yeah, YoDa placed the bunkers badly in his panic, and forgot to wall off the ramp.

The timing was absolutely perfect. He reinforced with another warp in. Really good decision making by Socke.

In front of your ramp, so your opponent can't just ignore you and go through it. You want 5 bunkers in front of your ramp? You know they can't overlap right? And if you did place them just around your ramp, then you just walk under them and kill the nat. No matter where they are positioned if you kill 3/5 bunkers you get an opportunity to walk by unless Yoda has SCVs in place to stop him. In the end it wasn't really positioning that mattered though, just that Yoda had no DPS due to no units.

kas doom drop flies over a pylon that just finished

Woah, 23 workers killed nevertheless.

such risky play from socke, but it pays off, i think he wouldnt have won if he didnt do that, very risky play but it paid off

the awkward moment, when the foreigner protoss wins with his 2 base allin against a 5-bunker-korean-terran

Socke couldn´t just let Yoda macro up. Becaue if that happens, even Socke cannot match his macro and then we know the outcome of it. But macro games would have been nice, anyway, I agree.

didnt yoda go to a MLG arena?

In front of your ramp, so your opponent can't just ignore you and go through it. Before the attack he had 3 other Bunkers forward, he was forced to build the extra ones behind since you have no room to make a 5 Bunkers concave and still have enough space for repairing SCVs.

This Verdi-kid seems like a talent. Gonna keep an eye out for him in the future.

I'd call it decisive play.

Well played by Socke! I'm a Terran lover for sure, but its always great to see a foreigner doing well.
I bet Yoda wishes he could have game 1 back. Attacking up a ramp into collossus and forcefields is such a mind boggling decision to me.
Edit: Ohh dear, Phagist... I feel so bad for laughing at your joke

A German taking over Poland? Who would have thought 
Go Go Socke!

He reinforced with another warp in. Really good decision making by Socke. Indeed. Best decision making I´ve seen from him in a long time. The one thing that Socke excels at is his mind, sadly we often times just see him get out-macroed.
