You need to either subscribe to the new Twitch channel for a monthly fee (~$20) or get a ticket from gomtv.net (has autoplay, better sorted, Korean VODs, mobile support) to be able to watch the VODs. Tickets do not carry over from either side.

Do any of you even play this game? Protoss simply cannot nexus first vs terran right now if terran goes for a single reaper which almost everyone does right now. Terran simply gains a huge advantage if the T is competent at micro vs probes/zealot/sentry

After the eco damage bomber did, there was no other choice but to go for a gateway timing to at least contain terran. If you go stargate / robo, you instantly get killed by bombers stim medivac timing either from a full frontal attack or a split + drops depending on the sentry composition.

Creator played near the best to his ability in that situation and it was clear there was still a huge gap in supply that was impossible to beat (bomber knew that WAY beforehand thus the lackluster MMM micro + fancy drop-play and CC + mule drops)

If you don't adapt to the strategy and metagame, you shouldn't QQ. Nexus first is extremely greedy.


People are complaining cuz they think Creator failed an all-in and QQ'd imbalance when it was obvious he was forced to do so given the circumstances. If you understand the game you wouldn't be saying such a thing.

Creator also has a point. If T goes cc first what can the protoss to that is a instant build order win if he/she has good micro? A proxy zealot rush which nobody does and if you fail instantly lose?

heard oracles are pretty good
And some 2 gate pressure or something with a robo. as always.
HotS didn't kill possibilities for Toss, they have increased. Do whatever worked in WoL and add some Hot Stuff


So we are talking about a tech build vs a cc open which doesnt even guarantee a win unless you do massive eco damage when a terran vs toss nexus first can just build a single unit from a barracks tier 1 and claim a build order win?

2 Gate pressure gets shut down by a single bunker by the way...

Not justifying balance whine but people need to understand at the heat of the moment why creator said what he did.

well so what?
yes we are talking about a build to harass compared to a eco build. What's the problem about it. That is even possible in mirror matchups:
Like in TvT CC first vs early banshee harassement. Ofc you got to do damage, thats the point behind it.
Bomber made a (what u call) tech build or at least much slower expansion cause un need to have a rax and gas first to make a reaper. Nexus first compared to that, is just greedy and SHOULD be punished. If the player is not punished he is in front, harassement is there to make it even or get in front. Complaining that CC/Nexus/whatever first into allin doesn't work vs a harassement based build is not complaining about balance it is just stupid and shows a huge inability to reflect about build order, decision making and ofc also not having adapted to HotS yet. Still the question remains why Nexus first AGAIN vs an Opponent who does the same build over and over again and you have time to think what would be the counter to it...

Before people say the balance is broken, that was one game, and crazy didn't even play that well. And fwiw, catz thinks zerg beats that composition:

I think we should wait what CombatEX, Fuzer and avilo have to say to that game first to determine if something is broken or not.

bad baaaaaaad games. Roro showed he's the only one who truly deserved to advance today. Crazy didn't adapt his play at all, Bomber doing horrible scv pulls left and rignt while making stupid mistakes, and In the last set, Creator chose to do 2 lackluster all ins after crushing Bomber in a macro game.

Bad start to Code S.

I don't think you know what a build order win is, else explain why Creator won the Whirlwind game in which he lost 5 probes to Reaper harass while he lost the Daybreak game in which he lost 6 probes? Or maybe the build order loss starts at the sixth probe kill and we should call this bizarre phenomenon the Gideel's Law?

Because Creator is good enough to win after loosing 5 probes in the early game sometimes but obviously not every time? To be honest this reaper really showed how good the unit cabn be. Of course Bomber control was perfect so I don't say it's OP for now but the balance involved in this needs to be carefully checked in the future. Such a cheap, low tech unit for great scouting and pretty good harass ability is a bit suspicious to say the least.

I can't believe you're seriously saying the Reaper might need a tweak based on a Nexus first losing Probes at the start of the game. If you don't want to lose Probes because you have no Zealot to chase him you can just not go Nexus first...

I just say it's so cheap you can go for a very fast cc with great eco, and protoss doesn't really have such a tool to do the same with low tech to the terran. Now I know race balance is asymmetric, but still reaper with no lab tech looks pretty awesome.

I hope so.

All I see is ESL and MLG releasing their VODs for free just like Riot does for their WCS/LCS series. Meanwhile GSL and twitch both require some sort of subscription. There are reports that twitch charges 20 bucks a month for their vods. GSL on the otherhand charges 20 bucks per season. I thought the idea was to make Starcraft more popular.

But having free 720p is irrelevant if it is broadcasted at 11am eu time and 5am us time. It is one step forward, two steps back in this regard. They are idiots, there are so many people who watch starcraft on youtube (husky etc.) and most of them have no idea there is gsl.

Reaper w/out tech lab is 25 seconds slower than reaper w/ techlab--what was the big change on the toss end?

Specifically, what unit is toss only 25 seconds away from that has changed this build so much?
