It made them a lot harder to kill. I honestly feel that Lilbow won due to ForGG's mistakes rather than his own skill. | ||

Or well, I think Polt strikes a nice balance, and I really don't get why more Terrans don't play like him, because his style doesn't seem that hard to be honest. Polt slept 3 hours a day to create that style. I'm pretty sure its difficult to pull off. | ||

 Still, it's really hard not to be happy for Lilbow and XMG, nice to see a new player rise to stardom through WCS the same way Bunny did last year. | ||

Protoss is way too forgiving. Whatever they do you can never counter attack because they already have next tech path ready to go. Same thing happened with Flash when he tried to punish that failed proxy oracle against cc 1st, now that game on Frost as well. If experienced terrans like ForGG and Flash can't tell when you can actually find an opening to punish protoss who is teching or expanding after a failed opening, I just don't know what to say about those games anymore. Either all terrans are dumb noobs or there is actually no opening to find. Not to mention how many storms protoss players have these days, EMP isn't even a counter when templars outnumber ghosts at least 2:1.... Not to mention the never dying chargelots. Just ban me for 2 days I need a break from this. I just hope ForGG will feel better tomorrow and won't really retire that would be quite a shame. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

I mean what would happen if Protoss doesn't build any colossi and die to mass hydra every game and goes to say "this game is BROKEN" ...well people will just say NO UR JUST BAD DUH. But against Protoss, it's totally justified to complain about race always? I wish ghost hard counter HTs as much as colossi hard counters Hydras. | ||

Haha yeah, I don't mean that it's super easy to play the way he does, but at the same time it doesn't look super flashy or complicated. He doesn't have to split like Maru, his play is just very tactically solid. Been trying to learn his style recently, but since I'm a scrub I haven't yet had success with it but I feel like pro Terrans should be able to learn it, no? | ||
