I was started to get worried I wouldn't have enough terran to watch next round, irrational fear apparently. The protoss have really disappointed this round. No one but Rain remotely impressed me and I think I've seen all games. A lot of the ZvZs were pretty weird games as well. | ||

Keen/Bomber didn't handle that the best they could, obviously. We never said we had absolutely no options. But you can see the difference surely. If you're out of position against a zealot runby/warpin you lose 5 SCVs and maybe a supply depot or missile turret. If you're out of position against a terran drop you lose your nexus. | ||

It flat out isn't very good until you're able to throw away units lategame. The Protoss harass won Rain the game that is discussed in this very thread. So this is the right place to point this out, even if you feel that Protoss harass is not rewarding enough / too risky / unreliable. Also: every time a player dies to harass is because he did not deal well with it. This time it happened to Bomber. | ||

Everyone arguing because Bomber did as Bomber does, mishandled the situation and now people are trying to use it to justify that somehow Protoss has awesome harrassment. Remember that time in GSL when hatch first beat proxy rax because of massive misplays? Is hatch first now the counter to proxy rax because it happened that one time? How about when an army gets wiped out because its left standing under a nuke? Are nukes suddenly OP? If Protoss harrass was consistently resulting in won games like Terran harrass and Zerg muta harrass often does then you might have an argument. It doesn't. It flat out isn't very good until you're able to throw away units lategame. Such demagoguery. First two ad hominem's, one against TheDwf, the other against Bomber and then repeating the same worn out arguments which were under doubt already as if attacking the messenger made them more true. | ||
