What? everytime he was inside Marus base he was waiting for the cooldown to finish and lost units in the progress. When he was chasing the units in the middle, he was waiting for it to finish so he could blink forward first, and backwards later on.
There were so many situations in that game where +5seconds on blink might have been desastrous for classic!


Yea, he'd have to switch builds completely into one of the other 4-5 viable PvT builds.


Heaven forbid a Protoss actually have to commit to offensive play and the risks it entails.

Yeah but qxc and Polt were both there if you are American and you weren't watching gtfo communist.

I was watching, I got banned you corporatist pig

Polt already beat Classic at IEM

No, it is the same for all units. But, IIRC, you get two zealots for the price of one Hallucination. All the rest are single units.

you even get 4 probes!


Thanks, I've never considered hallucinating probes!

I've seen a few people do them as a manner mule type play


When I play protoss, I hallucinate 16 probes while going for an all-in. Then rally them, in his vision, to my pretend expansion.

Polt already beat Classic at IEM


In a weekend tournament with no preparation and classic being outside of Korea for the first time in his life. I think what he meant was have classic and polt face off in a decent environment.


Classic was already in Cologne for a few days. How is the ESL studio not a decent enviroment.


I didn't say jetlagged I said it was his first time outside of Korea and Rain even talked about having to comfort Classic due to this. First and for most it doesn't even have booths, but my main point is rather that beating someone by 1 map with little to no preparation for that match is very different to having 1+ week to prepare for 1 opponent, so just because polt beat classic at IEM doesn't necessarily mean he would have performed better than Maru if he had played Classic today.

Yeah, out of last 10 TvP's I was watching, like 2-3 had Colossi in them, and all other games were amazing with constant back and forth action, harassment, fighting all over the map.
One can always hope that they will do something "interesting" with the Colossi, since removing them is impossible, it is Blizzard after all we are talking about.

Maru's micro in game 1 was impossible. I can't believe he lost. Classic is bad-ass, but still...
Can we help spread the word and create pressure to get Rob Pardo to replace Browder as head of Sc2? Pardo led the team for broodwar, frozen throne, and wow/BC. We need to make this a thing before LotV development starts. Think about it.

I hope all the Protoss are sorry.

Poor Maru. Hopefully he can stomp himself some Z to make RO16.

The thing is: Terran is on the back foot for the early game (oracles, dts) and a part of the midgame (blink). So it's hard for the terran to do any damage to the protoss at these points. This lets the protoss get a fast Templar's Archive, which means fast HT and Archons. But terran probably lost workers to harass earlier in the game, making it harder to get ghosts.

So unless the terran shuts down the early game shenanigans completely, I don't see terran winning against this style a lot.

Yeah imagine an all in build actually being risky and committal for the attacker.
That would be so wrong....
