Blink always struck me as an ability with alot of possible entertainment value yet I never enjoy blink plays except in some really rare cases where it's really close.

Didnt Maru scout the Blink play? He didnt look like he really prepared for the attack..


even if he scouted it, blink stalker all-ins are incredibly difficult to stop.


That is true, but given how early he could have seen it with the reaper, there would be a lot of things he could have done better

and we see why unit clumping is something for skill to fix, not blizzard. such an amazing game to watch!


This. People constantly arguing that unit clumping is making SC2 less skillful seem to miss the important fact that, with micro like maru's, you can actually do so much more with your units.

Almost nobody is capable of spliting units that well, which is a testament to the high skill cap in this game.


And you need to be Terran - or Zerg to some degree. For Protoss such micro opportunities don't really exist -_-


Hmm, not comparably, no. :-/

I'd like to be able to manually control and direct charge in these small scale engagements. Than have to rely on Colossi.

I actually saw some of the players at ASUS ROG talking about / testing auto vs manual charge (some - I won't name any - didn't realize you could manually charge). There's a lot micro (and positioning) that can really raise the skill cap higher than people think.

(yes, sc2 has different mechanical skill preference than either BW or WC3, wow)

Unfortunaltely this kind of micro in protoss race is not really APM effcicient imo. Of course there is also some very APM efficient micro in protoss too, but in less cases than terrans/zergs.

I don't know; I think Protoss pros are are a lot lazier with micro than zerg and especially terran. A lot of this is because of the race - you can get away with death balls, which you can't as say terran. Even from the best pros like MC you see basic micro mistakes like having stalkers clumped in front of zealots before an engagement. If Protoss showed as much micro skill in battles as a terran then that sort of zealot splitting / manual charging is possible.

That brought back memories of DeMu getting taken out by Alicia the other day by blink stalkers. Really hope Maru can come back from this - we've not seen him have to come back from behind often lately...

That was not the best blink Stalker micro. But it was enough for the win. This has been a good series so far!

And some protoss fanboys? Really I wouldn't give it two stars, but still I think two stars is closer to what it is worth than 5 stars.

I'm toss, gave it two. Really wasn't a game I'd recommend someone watch unless they're researching blink all-ins.

GSTL tempts his bm side too much. Feels the need to dance units or build four manner nexus instead of winning games :3

Edit: Actually I think at best that was 2.5 stars. You cannot say that was an awesome game to watch.


yeah 3 stars for the level of play this is at, but apart from that pretty boring to watch...
