Ah we're entering my favourite time of TL, the moment when the terran goes all-in and gets praised, ten seconds after the moment a protoss did the same thing and got shat on for it.


Hard to blame terrans for all inning when all they have to look for in 20+ minute games is superheated plasma and bad weather with almost no hope of survival.


Yeah, I was really blaming Bomber in that post, solid reading.

It's not that he wasted the storms, storming vikings his fine but you need to make sure to save about 2 colossi. Grubby wasn't positioned very well so he lost 3, which wasn't enough.


what really happened is that grubby made some brilliant forcefields on the ramp but I don't think he banked on bomber bum rushing the colossi even though 80 percent of his army was behind the forcefields. then grubby panicked and stormed the vikings (which was the right decision) but the colossi shouldn't have been that close to the fight in the first place.


Yep, very true.

Every so often, I feel the same and like to mute the stream and add commentary at my own pace. It may be wrong, but at least I'm not in a state of nausea or confusion.

Seems correct.

The other option would be to suicide his colossus to deal damage to bio, then use the storm on the bio. But your way seems better.

Sadly, today's my last day of vacation before returning on Monday D:

ugh... that sucks.

call in sick hahaeahueaheuaheuahe

1. It's my first day back in quite some time.
2. I don't have the standing to call in sick. And I'm not salaried. And I like money.

Aww.. Norway is pretty fuckin' imba. If you are sick, call in and get 100% cash flow. of course, if I live here later on, I'll try to become sick to watch shit I want 'cause I'm an asshole.

Well, I'm not a full time employee, I'm still a student. If I don't work, I don't get paid.

EDIT: Norway sounds nice. Dunno if I'd want to live there, but that's a nice perk.

It's a depressing country. I am looking at studying in South Korea myself..

Edit: GL working btw! Just remember to have a balance.


You know South Korea has like the highest suicide rate of any country ?
Not sure if it's the best choice to fight depression.

hahaha, yeah I know. I like how hardworking they are.

Some of us work at law firms that do not let you stream things to your PC, or access personal email. There is no watching at work.

It's a problem in Norway. I've lost motivation to achieve because 90 % of Norway is depressing. I'm a student in the best school of the country and people shit on school trips tailored for media students. HOW THE TITS...

Thank God our class was basically halved this year. I hope I do well.

Let me help relieve your stress, giving me saturday as bomber fan number 1.

I dont see how toss can win against this. Even if there is no collosi and vikings anymore in that fight, terran wins easy. terra can only lose if there are collossi but no vikings. Just make 4 more vikings than it should be, safest/best chance to win.

recognize when you have a window and go for the kill? mm its lame


Nah, his entire gameplan was to do this. 5 rax before third CC, etc.

And?


And I dislike it? The same way people hated 3 base all ins in PvZ in WoL. Works the same way.

A win is a win. You don’t get extra points for game length.


And I'm not questioning that. I just don't enjoy watching that type of game. There's nothing wrong with that, lol. The difference between this and WoL 3 base all ins in PvZ is that protoss had no way to win against zerg lategame and terran does against protoss.

It's okay when I don't understand the language, specially since korean and japanese ( since I watch a lot of FGC stuff ) are really up & down in the tone. I find it more natural.

English can be very monotone to listen I feel.

It lends itself to getting the upgrades easier. You need the TC for the Archives, and that makes going for +2 upgrades much easier. That's why I like Templar over Colossus.
