Problem with Hellions is that, if your opponent went for any kind of agression, you lost the game. Banshee can be a good idea, especially with cloak, because you can even the game if your opponent didn't went for an all-in. Blind scans are just bad 7 minutes into the game. Stop talking about them. Banshee builds do terribly against any sort of robo opener too, which is the most common build at the moment it seems | ||

Scans miss, scvs die to stalkers patrolling outside the base. anyone can confirm what build polt went for? beyond reaper > reactor > CC, i can't recall what factory or engi-bay timing polt went for. all i know is that polt opted to hole up in his natural against 2 stalkers even though he had a ton of marauders, which makes me think he was trying to hide an aggressive stim timing instead of trying to get a read on first, which is just a mistake in build order. | ||

You cannot leave your base to scout anymore, and the protoss can pretty much do whatever he wants to do. Just look at this game : Polt lose his reaper with a stupid mistakes, First decides to take a 3rd base. What could Polt do ? Can't leave his base, because if First went for a little agression, marines will get caught and the game is lost ; Can't scout with a SCV because there are stalkers on the map ; can't turtle because he lets his opponent get ahead. Only solution is, blindly hard countering your opponent. It sure was a mistake by Polt, and First was really clever, really knew how to use it, but I can't feel anything except disappointment, looking at this serie. TvT and TvZ are the only match-up where you can get back & forth games. In PvT, if either side does a small mistake early on, the game is over. Same for PvP and PvZ. ZvZ isn't that far either. You can't get any more negative than that post lol | ||

I tend to agree, but also this game polt lost even more time coz he saw sentries coming out and freaked out like a noob | ||

i tried to put it diplomatically, but since you asked: i don't like Naniwa. he's the only active pro player in the entirely sc2 scene i dislike so i will automatically cheer for his opponent no matter who it is. | ||
