Admit it, you come here for me Rofl, we all come for optown! he's the reason this shit is great We should just make an opterown skype group there'd be no balance whining. Except from me if HerO loses Why doesn't TL just feature Opterown? I mean we need a friggin Opterown section in this site. It's already a coded feature. Someone will automatically go apeshit whenever people shit on Maru/Prime's play or praising KeSPA. I wonder how does R1CH code such magical thing

Doesn't change the fact that the guy's poster is absolutely true. Besides, I understand why someone might not respect a victory based on cheeses.

Polt might be an inclusion of the heart. No SuperNova? Probably INnoVation, he actually won the last few h2hs. Then Flash? Then Bomber ? Innovation/Polt/Bomber. I don't get why Flash is even mentioned. I don't know why Polt is mentionned neither. Because Polt was the only T to win vs P in WCS in like two weeks (apart from 1 series vs Minigun). I think best TvPer is either Polt or Gumiho. Innovation... he's awesome ofc, but I wouldn't call him a TvP specialist, just overall good. Innovation seemed to be the only one who doesn't pull SCV though. No he does. I specifically remember at least 3 games where he pulled SCVs in the midgame to win. Artosis described it as, knowing he was just far enough ahead to go for the killing blow. Nothing cheesy about it. Just goes to show what a little bit of good o'l caster bias does to a player's perception of a strategy. Innovation doesn't cheese, he does strategic timing attacks
AKA "a player I like cheesing"

Little Maru so cute. How can you not see him winning? It's his dream! THINK OF THE CHILDREN!

Best is when you convert friends and have a barcraft at home. It's Ok Kal. TlS season 2 is up on youtube. Almost as good :D i imagine going to a barcraft is really similar to being in a LR thread except when there's a loud drunk idiot you can't ignore him as easily Barcraft is pretty boring when you go alone cause you are the only one interested in SC2 in your group of friends. I did it and I had to guide people thru the games cause it was hard TT wtf But man is it fun when you have someone else of the different race there to chill and enjoy the games with you. Kinda like watching a soccer match with a rival fan. Can be super informative and interesting. or just really cathartic fun bitching/jibing. Nice. I wonder how discussions would be if Bomber was playing and I was there.
Not gonna lie. Ever since I connected you as Bomber's number one fan boy I get kinda excited and look for your name in bomber posts. You ever show up at a SoCal barcraft I'll buy you a drink ,and a redbull related shot every time bomber wins (ok not sure about the grammar of that).

An SCV pull is an SCV pull. What's interesting to me is how viewers will classify it as cheesy when someone like Supernova or Maru do it but not when Innovation does it.
It's the same basic premise. It's an all in. At what point in the game you're doing it is rather irrelevant.

That's how limited terran is in pvt pfffff Nah it's just that Rain is too good for Maru. Best player in the world against someone who shouldn't be even in ro8. best player in the world? good joke haaah You'll repent for your errors soon. Don't listen to the whisperings of the followers of Innovation and join the church of Rain! Naturally, our lord, Life, is only allowing these petty mortals to win tournaments because he thought it would be unbecoming of him to smash TOO many events. Nestea Does not interfere with this flow of how the universe is going he watches closely but does not interfere!
I can work NesTea into my pantheon.

Dendi for the miracle save for Na'vi today. That game was great.
As for Maru vs Rain, I really wanted Maru to cheese game 1, to try to get Rain off balance, then have a whole host of strats setup. But I think Maru was stressed as well at the start. I think that might be another issue (something we tend to forget).
Though this is still better than NesTea vs Inca. I watched that Live. That hurt.

I think Maru just cheeses every game until this is over, we'll see if bitbybit is strong enough.
