Why David Kim?

Can anyone honestly defend her0s ability to go blink without fail in every TvP and win easily regardless of how well it is scouted and countered?

This is why Protoss domination has been the most hated period of Starcraft.


Polt giving away a good chunk of his army, and then the counter attack that didn't really do enough damage is way more of a reason why he lost lol

2 base blink is still really good cause you can play a macro game if you don't kill the terran. It's really too map-dependent to call overpowered though.

You can't blame herO for wanting to get ahead in the series against Polt, I mean he has shown how strong is TvP is so going for it in game 1 is a good decision. And Polt didn't hold it the best but meh losing that CC was a big blow. Not sure what was going on that game...
There are things known, and things unknown, and in-between are the doors.

I think Terrans aren't being very efficient vs blink all-ins.

Blink builds need nerfing if only to stop them from centralizing the TvP metagame.

this is not a good example of a terran countering and scouting perfectly but still dying. it was completely misread by polt and he lost half of his army midmap

Blink all-ins is a misnomer. You can always transition from blink unlike say a 1-1-1.

To be fair sometimes 1-1-1 was followed with another 1-1-1.

True enough. I guess I should call it the two base blink push then that I hate since protoss have really mastered the transition out of the big blink attack.

Just like parting and his soul train, we have to rely on protoss randomly deciding to not use it anymore

Polt giving away a good chunk of his army, and then the counter attack that didn't really do enough damage is way more of a reason why he lost lol

He killed 16 workers with his counter attack and forced warp ins at home.

See, Blink is still pretty great.

10 pool isn't a possibility any more, so whats the one cheese you're looking for now to finish off the tournament in the most rage inducing way possible for the opponent?


If it's TvP the Arthur Gold base gateway all-in.

If it's PvP just 3 gates win the game.
