Why? It was BM as hell and clearly a balance whine. Also you're in TL, the least you can do is respect their players a little bit

wherever Terran is playing, samurai80 will be complaining

I guess, I just love seeing that sort of passion tbh


Thats the sort of passion used to describe "crime of passion" though, lol.

Guys actually like this kind of game ? this remind why SC its not the king of eSports anymore boring


^ This... not impressed lol


really? This tournament has been full of great games and you nitpick this to bitch about?

I do agree with you, but more than 50% of games (of all SC2) go to deathball vs deathball like this one, and thats boring


If you think the game ended beacuse of "deathball vs deathball", you don't seem to understand the game at all.


the game was prolonged due to deathball vs deathball and there was a large amount of time of minimal action because of deathball vs deathball

Taeja played out the game very well, but spectator wise, it is still a boring play style and overall spectator experience

prolonged constant action between both players is almost always a superior and more entertaining game to watch


This is like criticizing soccer because there's very few goals and just constant passing.


SC2 isn't soccer

umm no shit? I don't see your point, I thought the analogy was good

8 years as a KeSPA player, bro.


Then why do you count parting as kespa? such hypocrisy, is unbeleviable...

Where did I say that?

If you want to get technical, Parting was a practice partner for eStro.

People wonder why eg-tl was so hyped to do well in proleague when the potential that some of the players on that combined team is insane


You know doing well at a foreign tournament when you are used to traveling is completely different than Proleague. Not only do the Kespa players care more about Proleague, they have an entire organization complete with experienced staff there to prepare every player for every game. Couple that with no traveling, which the kespa players are obviously not used to as evidenced by numerous interviews at previous MLG events.

Taeja has tremendous experience playing these weekend tournaments and frequently travels. He obviously is going to do better in these games than bo1 games where you spend an entire week practicing for.

Jaedong, hi.

Technically EG-TL property now.

So, I guess joining EG-TL makes him forget his 8 years of KeSPA training regiment.

Good one.

Not for SC2 right? If this was BW then yeah, I'd consider him to be a KeSPA player. But his current team is EGTL.

Has little to do with the game played. Has to do with the mindset, mental training as well as training regiment. Though, I think being a top tier Brood War champion helped too.

Well, yeah. A lot of KeSPA players trained for 8 years but very few of them get the same sort of skill and results as JD.

Yeah rain donated colossi throughout the tournament, with that innovation's play i guess kespa players are falling apart when proleague doesn't boost their practice. Makes some sense, they're on a vacation after almost a year of hardcore proleaguing.

Tempests, Observers following your Colossi. It also helps not to enter lategame massively behind; if people think 10 macro OCs 180 army size is the norm for each lategame TvP, they're fairly deluded.


Tempests are terrible against Vikings.

Hence why Tempests transitions are perfectly standard in lategame PvT?


I'm speaking of Mass Viking/Ghost in particular. No Marines, no Marauders. I've played against it, and I've never won.

If Terran reaches that point, Protoss dies.


Lots of stalkers + lots of colossus is very good. If you add tempest, even better.


Scan, kill Observers/Oracles. Cloak Mass ghosts. EMP and kill everything. Use any remaining Vikings to help DPS down Colossus and any Tempests.


You take a defensive posture. You add cannons. Watch HasuObs ultra-late. If you lose in the defensive with lots of colossus/tempest and stalkers behind cannons and few hts, you really are doing something very wrong.


Nuclear launch detected brah. Kills dem cannons.


Jesus shut up. Statistics favor Protoss over Terran and besides Taeja the Terrans got smoked everywhere all over the world. Protoss dominates all the ladders on highest level. Rain made huge mistakes here so if you want to base that series as balance test "BRAH" jesus christ.

I cannot believe people like you but on the other hand yeah, they exist.


Wow. Relax man, don't rage. And I'm not Jesus, I know it seems like that, but I'm not that good yet,

Anyway, Rain deserved to lose that series he didn't play well and Taeja played really well, but it had nothing to do with this discussion. The discussion we were having was about Mass Viking/Ghost, because someone said "UltLate game is always protoss favored."

In my experience, Mass Viking/Ghost has no counters. Sure you can turtle up, but if you don't have the bases on your side of the map, then you're in trouble. And nukes force engagements and constant movement.

Just watch games like Flash vs PartinG on Daybreak, Happy vs HasuObs on Daybreak, Happy vs San on Star Station.

Looks like Pro league training is very important. I am still shocked with Innovation, i guess that training for pro-league is what keeps them on form.

I'm not comfortable imagining how long the series would have gone should Rain have not played so mediocre-ly, lol.
