KT needs mafia zerg!

They should've gotten Soulkey instead.

When soul disbanded i really thought they'd get classic for sure...

Goddamn it.


Well Maru built to blind counter it and it seems to have worked.


The thing with blink allins is that they are crazy deceptive. Nothing stops the toss from just making 8 blink stalkers and taking a third instead, while the poor terran sits there going FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK BUNKERS FUCK.

I'm fine with allins being part of the game, but it's boring as hell when on some maps it's the only thing you shoudl do (the exception is soultrains ofc xD)


I see what you're saying, but don't you think there's a case for Terran to scout better during the attack? With SCVs like Maru is doing now, or with another Reaper, scan, stray marine, etc


Dunno if the toss has map control with stalkers pre stim you cant do much scouting...at the end of the day it's just easier to make mains without insane surface area (that coincidentally also make pvp vs blink a bit more reasonable, again see ohana)

While you are right, I still think map diversity is a good thing, and just having re-skins of the same map would also suck, and if you force map makers to stick to loads of perimeters, like not much surface area, big enough main for production, ramp at natural, small ramp to main, accessible but not to easy third, after a while all the maps will boil down to be very similar (it already is actually, i find it (slightly) sad that we can have "one standard strategy for the whole match up doesn't matter what the map is" as I'd prefer the map to determine the strategy more. But this shows the whole balancing problem again as you cannot please everyone!


Oh i agree for sure, i just think that blink shouldnt be THAT strong on Yeonsu. That ridge is really fucking big, so you have lots of room to add a chasm type thing and make it big enough that blink allins arent op, but they are still stronger than on the average map
ModeratorProtoss all-ins are like a wok. You can throw whatever you want in there and it will turn out alright.

OMG, I cannot believe what a retarded decision that was. Send a protoss on that map to do the SINGLE MOST PREDICTABLE build in the history of the game. No build is that strong that it will win if the opponent knows with 100% certainty that it's coming, the opponent will always just prepare for that and win, and that was exactly what happened. I cannot believe the stupidity -.-

Send Flash next time please!


this was actually pretty close and with some better decisions (and without the micro fails) Zest could have won.


I don't say could have won I Zest had that game won right before he ran his units into one bunker lost most of his stalkers for it and then lost the advantage he had. He goes into the main he wins, he waits one more warp in round for a critical mass of stalkers he wins, he does anything besides what he did and he wins the game.


huh, maru had bunkers in the main too
he was prepared for everything

Goddamn it.

edit: or hope the toss player fucks up lol

Yesterday Babyknight came back from a 40 supply deficit in PvP against HasuObs using solely 6-10 Blink Stalkers.


The funny part is how the mapmakers agreed that it is totally bad if reapers can jump into your base from anywhere, hence they only made the double cliff with only one small edge, but they don't seem to see the same problem with blink stalkers.


That's because reapers are in your base at 3:30-4:00 and blink stalkers around 7:30-8:00 but hey let's do stupid comparison!

Replace him with a zerg next match and he will learn his lesson. Should be a good motivator to work harder.

I'm probably a bit biased because I want to see Maru play. :p But felt a bit weird to send sOs out against someone who already defeated him, especially since he was not looking good that day. Solar did beat Maru in HSC qualifiers though, so yeah, neither player seemed a solid choice against Z and Solar in particular, but Maru seemed to be in better shape with better momentum.

And I wonder if the blink all-in on Yeonsu will begin to be phased out now. Terrans seem to have figured it out, and it's way too predictable on that map. Here's hoping.

I thought ace picks were chosen together with the rest of the lineup?

Yeah exactly. Especially if that winning race would be Protoss. Although all the Terran wins was well deserved today. But if Protoss would go 5-0 in some match, twitch chat and this forums would be unbearable, and thread would be like 500 pages long with 90% of posts: "Protoss IMBA, nerf that stupid faceroll race." It's just sad.
