Don't get me wrong, Rain did play superbly surviving for so long, but that game I'd argue T should rather be complaining about than P defending current TvP balance. Im not seeing a reason to complain when all that I see is Terrans beating Protoss and Protoss beating Terran. "couldn't close it" is probably also not necessarily accurate. Its more like TaeJa being okay with patiently waiting for the safest point to crush Rain at. | ||

At one point he was on one base while Taeja was on 3 with tons of Orbitals behind. Rain played horrible and lost that game due to his stubbornness to actually expand. The sad part is that Taeja had to wait so long to kill Rain because of how ridiculously strong Protoss 200/200 army is in PvT. If anything, that game displayed how ridiculous Protoss is that it can live for 20 minutes on 1-2 bases against a massive Terran economy. I play Protoss, so no bias here. you mean the part where they didnt attack each other for those 20 minutes. and when they did, the toss army got rekt? | ||

Still dont understand why rain didnt expand to the top while taeja commited so hard to denying him the 4th at the bottom | ||

In most games a protoss would just rebuild after that huge engagement. This time only Taeja was able to get his population to bounce back. | ||

this was a careful dance of two highly skilled players for every edge they could get knowing that one misstep could mean death for them. granted Taeja was advantageous from the beginning but we have seen today that 1-2 storms can eat 40 supply so there was a real chance of comeback. | ||

No, because if you misstep trying to close it you can end like Alive. | ||
