Problem is, in TvP, if you lose your first reaper, it's pretty much over. You get a few all-in that you can still do, but apart from that, it's over. 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.

he has scans and scvs send some or scan some.


Nope. 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.

Standard 3 rax Medivacs.

his medivacs were definitely delayed though. whether that was because of his expectations of an attack or not, i don't know, but his first 2 medivacs were like nearly 2 minutes delayed.

polt just didn't play flexibly while first just seemed more prepared for that specific match.

Yeah, there is more ways to scout than that. Helions, Banshees, and blind scans.
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.

wtf is your point, if you want to know whats up, scan if you don't want to scan lose. wtf should the terran be able to see the whole map without even doing something for it, getting ridiculous with these terran guys


His point was that the loss of the reaper early cost polt the game, this point was in an earlier post not quoted here. 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

And had he not reacted while a timing was really coming, people would have blamed him for "greed".


Nice red herring. Polt made two huge mistakes which made the game a completely one sided affair.

To summarise, polt had no legit scouting options because he lost his reaper on the first pass without even getting into the main (to the gasps of arty)

He then was fooled by fake aggression and spotted the third after it had been established for about three billion years.

A lot of people, myself included, are getting tired of Naniwas behavior. Its beginning to be upsetting that one of our best foreigners has such a bad attitude towards fellow players who only try to be nice to him.

Ah ah, Naniwa not shaking Dd's hand.

I can't not root for him, because he's a good foreigner and I like how he plays, but god ... he's such an ass.


Would you feel better rooting for DD if you remember all the non-game-related shit he went through on Werra (when he was Loverip)? I'm pretty happy for him to have 'made' it after all that, when at the time he seemed like a really lost teenager. I don't normally root for random Protoss's, but it's really great to see him succeed so I don't mind rooting for him.

Funny how people take personal insults just because of other handshake denial.
