Rain's PvP in WoL was incredible, hope he can do well in HotS too.

Man what happened to snow, after that pretty slick WCS Korea qualifier run (Albeit not qualifying) he appeared a few times in hybrid league and poofed into thin air. I'm currently rolling with the theory he's in the cave with bisu who is trying to figure out why 12 minute sentry max isn't working and leta who's mastering backflips.
|
no hellbatz today. Hooray!
|
Nice pvp there  Enjoyable game 1.
This background music is effing tight haha while casters are talking betweeen games.
|
 Rain played very well in G-Star HotS event defeating  Mvp and  NesTea with very intresting builds.
|
Proxy a unit that takes energy to attack?
|
I think I'm gonna enjoy PvP in HotS
|
Flying was just luring the stalkers away to get probe kills with phoenixes...
|
I can't claim to understand Protoss play but it looks to me like they're playing WoL PvP with some HotS units added in. The word out there is that in HotS, he who makes the most Void Rays fastest wins.
|
Another good game, enjoying this.
What Hip-hop song is that beat in the background when casters come in after the game??
|
WP! Flying HWAITING!
|
The guy casting with Axslav is rather annoying with his limited understanding of the game yet being a smartass to axslav all the time (yes i know he follows it up with ''it's a joke'' everytime).
Oh well, fun to see a hots tournament anyway.
|
nice PvP, I like PvP in WoL and is one of my favorite match ups, but things are looking even better in HoTS
|
|
|
Yeh like Rain doesnt have 3 Observers, why they are talking crap right now
|
|
|
Looks like Flying is slowly beginning to understand the right unit to build in HotS PvP.
|
Skillrays pretty good now ^^
Flying's army was badly positioned (3 archons were stuck behind a nexus) but the army was so much better.
|
yo rain, void rays are pretty good in hots.
|
I have not really watched HOTS yet but holy crap, those Void Rays look strong.
|
Unexpected side-effects of casting time-warp? I'm pretty sure I saw that battle happen twice in a row XD
|
more like Roid Rays amirite?!
|
Well, the Time Wrap was very good, keeping the Archons while the Voids destroyed the front lines of Rain.
|
I like the new filler music... for now :D
|
LOL i realy think flying forgot to build an oracle instead of waiting on robo.......
|
Watching protoss with new stuff feels dirty. DT 4gate. *shudders*

How old are these games? Did they play after they moved that ability to the oracle? :o
Maybe he didn't even know about it though.^^

I dont think they are that old. I think these guys are still training WOL hardcore.
|
They're not very fond of the core I suppose.
edit- or not very familiar, is probably the better word
|
Nice counter DT from Rain
|
so many DTs in this Bo5.
Let's go Rain!!!
|
nooooo rain, don't build colossi ;;

Holy crap how did Flying win 2 games vs Rain? Does it look like he's been practicing HoTS?
|
That wasn't a very good last game =\

Definitely. Would make sense since he's been sucking in WoL.
Flying has the good sense to make roid rays. Rain does not xD
|
United Kingdom50293 Posts
Damn flying is enjoying those air units.
|
Wow
Void Rays rock in PvP now
|
Flying discovered the power of Void Rays, Rain somehow still hasn't.
|
I don't know much about HOTS but if that mass voidrays thing is legit this will make the matchup a lot, lot more boring than it was before. This is completely unexciting.
|

Flying knows that Void Ray are good, Rain appararently not.
I am happy my old 2v2 bronze strategy is working in pro-games in HOTS.
|
Time Wrap makes them even better
|
Flying is doing a good job luring the army away from the main to send phoenixes in.
|

Yes he was good at WoL too but something happened and he started having bad results and this something must be HotS practice
|
I feel a guilty pleasure thinking about Protosses having to finally fear voidrays as we did in 2010.

Rain wasn't in a position to just drop 2 stargates in attempt tp catch up. The game was over the moment Flying started making them.

Colossi wars are better and for voids you need really Mass Stalkers/Storms and/or Phoenixes or more Voids

Yeah, and? Didn't see the first 3 games, did Flying use rays in any of them?

Flying does not know how to finish the game and Rain just does not know what to do lol.

Game 2 on Cloud Kingdom was won by Flying's Void Rays.

Standard lategame PvP. Both deathball dancing around looking funny.

Flying should have really run those probes from chargelots 
|
Flying what are you doing T_T...
|
Those rays are unkillable given Rain's current comp, doesn't matter how much dmg he does to Flying's base =\
edit - now that the fight happened.. don't think he lost any of those rays..
|
I quite like this game after all :D
Not sure about the VR being so strong, but mothership core creates some interesting dynamics and tactics.

IN the one on Cloud Kingdom, the engagements looked silly and Rain ran into them pretty clueless. I think Rain is the better player but Flying seems to have more experience with HOTS. And he openend air almost every game I think.

Skillray colossus army.. The stuff of nightmares coming to games near you in March.
|
Guess who's flying out to MLG.
|
At least there's still lasers in pvp, so I wont feel completely lost.
|
great now in addition to red pew pew we also have blue pew pew
|
|
|
|
|
Also it is nice in general to try to make him cast Prismatic Alignment and retreat with Time Wrap, but it doesn't happen so often

Please Blizzard, Please watch these Vods... I cry when I load up a beta game and it's a PvP...
I didn't cry for PvP when it was 4 gate wars.. at least then it came down to skilled micro and executing build order better.. These Void rays are just silly...

We gotta get an oracle/colossi/ roid ray comp for maximum shiny pew pew.
I wonder if flying is going to repeat WoL and become an early bloomer riiiiiight into irrelevancy.

They should make an elephant in the room part 2 for HoTS. "Seed at the top of the ladder is a farce! Flying is overrated!"

Keep telling yourself that the EU guys have played HotS nonstop, lol.

I think Nerchio was on the same spot as RorO on the graphic so they probably forgot to change the team

I think it was a graphic error because he was on the same spot as RorO in the KeSPA graphic

Very unlikely. Nerchio has more or less everything he wants with his manager. I don't see why he would want to join any other team let alone a KeSPA one ...

If Nerchio wouldnt go over to Korea before (rumor was he got offered a GSL seed at one point) why would he go now and join a Kespa team? Isn't he pretty serious about school or is he done with it?

Well its already been said that the reason Nerchio isn't playing in GSTL in the Axiom/Acer team is due to school commitments so pretty sure he is still serious

This actually shows Flying > Rain. But I guess it's from the english broadcast.

the pic is from the eng broadcast but if you translate the text you can see rain > flying

so Rain actually was aware of Roid Rays the entire time o.O?
what a twist!
Guess Flying's dip in WoL is not because he's just been playing Hots..
|
wait so Rain won 3-2 and was the other player the entire time or they just mixed up the ID's for the 5th game only?

Yeah, since it was a user ID mix up, seems more likely it was the whole series.

Woah woah woah, so Rain won?
RAAAIN! :D

So are Voidrays the new Colossus of PvP? Red laser festival to blue laser festival, huh?

OK wow just found about about the Rain/Flying Identity thing, very surprised. I apologize for the mix up! Their in-game names were listed as "Ryo" and "IIIIIIIIIIIII". My (terrible) logic at the time was "Ryo" was closest to "Rain" so I just assumed from the beginning that Ryo was Rain! Gah pretty embarrassed, but congrats to Rain!!

Ok, I have to just say that's a pretty big leap to just assume Ryo is Rain because they both start with R.

ah. still says flying won on liquipedia

Probably because there is still nothing 'official' from MLG yet.

I guess Flying didn't play at proleague cause was preparing to the HOTS.

I think it is because he is looking at the 'unlogin' version.

lol seems like the casters mixed up players in the replay so rain won 3-2?
|
I'll never bash axslav again. He is such a boss for totally calling out HotS on Hellbats on air. I spit milk through my nose when he was like "yea PvP, it's nice to not see Hellbats killing everything for a change". So true; they beat Immortals FFS!

This is really really awesome (:
True about the hellbats though - i kinda like powerful things. Muta's (oh god mutas kill me) Hellbats, strong widow mines, i think if the other races of the game do not make you scared, there is something off with the tuning unless you are one of the best players in the world

+ Show Spoiler +I don't really know what to even say to this. Sometimes I really have to limit how I would talk to someone who makes such assumptions in real life when posting on this forums because I'd immediately be banned.
To be a softy... really? That's what you thought? Please verify things before you cast a game to thousands of people as it's your job (the part a lot of people seem to be missing?)... @_@
Admitting you made a mistake publicly is good nonetheless.

lol what a retard. i wish i also had a job where i could fuck up and provide wrong information and just laugh it off like "huehuehue how embarrassing xDD"
User was warned for this post

And here ends the most respected NA tournament

Though to be fair I always think Axeltoss = Axslav in my head.
|
It was a mistake people, let them learn from it and move on.
|
hahaha really ? they switched the players ? i went bed nearly crying rain was out xD
|
Yeah ! a human made an honest mistake!! shame on you MLG ! bad casters bad!
|
The "Flying refuses to fly" pun used in the front page topic is hilarious.
|
lol... he will never make that mistake again.
That's forgiveable unless he does it again.
