It's really easy to have amazing forcefields when you've got like 8 sentries.



I will never understand casters hype for force fields. And no, fungal is not as easy as FF (because some random toss will argue this). I never saw a map trying to escape a FF...

Well what else can you hype when you endlessly see Z army being decimated and unable to do anything because of an endless amount of FF's...

Checking the groups and the bracket, I think its highly likely the upper half of the ro8 will be 4 Protoss.(2nd place Group B and second place group D would be needed)


If Dear advances second it will be ridiculously cheeky PvPs from "mentor and his student*.
Even though, if Zest/Maru is going to be 2nd in B, sOs will smash and then it will be soO who will suddenly beat PartinG again :D
If Soulkey is second, then we will enjoy another pack of crazy games. Sadly, not bo7.

There is such a thing as cheese. Cheese is a risky strategy that most likely fails if the opponent knows it's coming.

Well, Blizzard has done a lot to remove some of that cheese as well as giving earlier scouting options. Problem is that protoss cheese is still as strong. Hell, the only reason MsC needs a 60 second overcharge is because 1 base protoss is so strong in PvP that it would be very hard to take expansions without the MsC.

sOs control during that fight was really sloppy. Life did a fantastic job baiting out forcefields. Didn't really end up mattering, though...

As usual.

Whining about forcefields on the followup play is silly. The cannon rush put sOs ridiculously ahead. The all-in was just a way of finishing it and if it had been closer I'm sure sOs would've conserved sentry energy better.

That point it was not an all-in really.

Gosh ZvZ is terrible. Also so far the ZvZ we have seen was a failed bane bust and fail roach all in / rush xD


Christ I'm not sure which matchups are even good these days. Is TvT and TvZ still good?


Yeah for me
TvZ awesome
TvT good (but awesome for most people, i just only like a few of the TvTs xD)
TvP is ok but sometimes hurts my head
PvZ can sometimes be fun if you don't play P or Z and watch it and like LOLz
PvP has gotten better for me, tis fun seeing lazors, but early wins are slightly boring for me
ZvZ is just silly 90% of the time xD

Yeah, good thing that they are balancing around PvP, because we will see a ton of PvP in this year it seems! lol

Sure, and I have a friend that thinks TvZ is the worst matchup in the game. Doesn't mean that people are going to stop saying TvZ is the most entertaining.

Yes. But protoss can nexus first vs aggressive zerg builds... The expansion timings between WoL protoss and HoTS protoss is very drastic.

Someone could also say that protoss has too many ways to open against T and Z and those aggressive openings also drastically limits what Z and T can do and almost always end up with toss being ahead.

Although, if these protoss players do their best to end the game as early as possible, and such is not without risk, it probably suggests that they fear mid and late game zerg.

Oh please, you can't really compare BW to SC2, BW didn't have things that you couldn't do anything about(Force Fields), or if it had, they were higher in the tech and were quite hard to use because of limited selection, macro, no smart-casting and how BW worked in general.
