This game was probably the definition of getting protossed.

no it wasnt. the definition of getting protossed is flash vs sora. this was just very well played by elfi holding on against drops multitasking and splitting his army pretty well, whereas jjkaji kept throwing away small amount of units and in the end was for some reason not upgrading and overextending. elfi is officially god


Not really. Flash was playing from behind that whole game since his proxy factory play failed.

I am sure that if we looked at resources lost, they were probably even or Jjakji ahead. And even if Jjakji was slightly behind he was still ahead in economy. First he had a faster third and then a faster 4th base and was never harrased at all until that deciding fight.

I am not saying that Elfi played bad but by "getting protossed" I mean when terran does everything right for first 20-25 minutes of the game, even gets vikings, ghosts (right counters), slows down protoss economy etc. but still loses that 1 fight and everything snowballs from there, no chance of comeback at all. He also wasn't that behind on upgrades since it was 2-2 vs. 3-3. You can't really beat protoss to 3-3

I feel like protoss can always come back as long as you get maxed and have chance to drop 2-3 good storms.

Well maybe our definitions of getting protossed are bad.

for me to get protossed the protoss needs to have collossi storm and tempests which elfi didn't have but sora did

The way I look at it is when terran slowly builds up advantage during the game and it all goes down the drain in 1 fight without the chance to come back.

Think it's just losing the big fight and not being able to re-build army quick enough

Blizzard, Kespa, ESF and all the WCS-subsidiaries should write a 38 page dictionary defining every one of these words and if a player or caster is found to have misused one they get fined.

Ok, thanks. Will have to try it out sometime.

I usually just leave 6 in main and then start rallying to natural, but kinda sucks if 2 oracles come :D

Look at it this way:
Dear vs. Maru on Frost - not an example of getting protossed since Dear never took any real damage and Maru was never ahead in tech or economy

Elfi vs. Jjakji on Frost - example of getting protossed since Jjakji was trading well, he denied Elfi's third, he had higher tech units and wasn't stuck on bio for the whole game but then he lost that fight and it was gg

I dunno. We can use it like that, sure. But I think it was meant the way I related it to what qxc said originally. But language changes, etc

And lost every fight in game from the beginning. <- Jjakji
