I'm no balance whiner in this particular instance, but that is creative? He looked at that and thought, "I wonder how many pylons it would take to go across that choke" It's not exactly a remarkable innovation.

How many other protosses have thought that and made it work vs a top zerg? It's pretty creative imo, assuming he came up with it.

Everyone in gold haha not saying a gold league player could've pulled it off as well as he did but I've been cannon rushed in many ridiculous ways in my time

I like Bomber, but right now I want him to lose. It's not fair if Jaedong fans have to suffer alone and I want to punish WCS NA with as many Protoss in the ro16 as possible.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Yeah, that's not the Starcraft anymore we all loved. Where is micro, where is macro? Everything is about holding the next all-in. No more open games.
I'm really fed up with this game in its current state. Feels dead.


rewatch IEM if you are able to cop with good P matchs. that was sick.

spending more money to build more pylons isn't an innovation. it's the same build, you're blocking zerg in with pylons. he just did it in a more expensive way. what about this is new other than "it happened in wcs now and there were 5 pylons"?

Yeah, hardcore commitment to a cannon rush is innovative. It's not like people have been doing it since 2010 or anything. . .

More like since 1998

Except any low master scrub can pull it off. That's the ugly part. And it's the same for every wacky build we saw tonight.
It was like watching low GM ladder. Gamble, gamble, gamble.

Next on the balance whine front: Pylons OP

Someone already posted that actually

You can build stargates inside pylon range, and pylons can build oracles. I get what they are saying

/s because you can't be too careful in this thread atm.

It was very well executed, and if it wasn't most people would agree with Mr. Bitter as it being nigh impossible to have work.

It was well done, and still earned Has a place alongside Sniper. I can enjoy the confusion and insanity of such a gambit even while disliking the result.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?
