You GG out.


you don't let him get 3 bases, 6 collosus and 3/3 upgrades while being on 1/1

You never played TvP have you?


Yes I do, and it's a huge blunder if you let that happen. Period.

Try playing some high level TvP and report back. Thanks.

Focus fire your vikings, not have 10-20 supply doing some sort of zerg run by, not being down 2 upgrades

You never played Terran, have you?


Its a rare situation when Terran is even on upgrades.


Terran is usually behind, but Polt could at least had 2-2 in that fight.
Also, imagine if that squad by Dear's third flanked those colossi from behind like he did in game 2.
He would probably hold since Dear had no range.

At least I think he would but you can never underestimate chargelots with +3 armor.


I wasn't super intent on the game, but if this is true, I think Polt thought a Squirtle 2 base collosus blink all-i was imminent and then was like ah fuck he went double forge and lost.


Could be. Even Artosis and Incontrol thought he will do a 2 base colossus all in.

His medivacs were pretty close to the 5 collosus at one stage, and I'm like 90% sure they saw them. This was at dears third, so there was plenty of time to make another 5 turrets

Can't help but feel that even if Polt gets past Dear, he is going to get stomped by CJhero. He does not look sharp at all today

Thanks Artosis!

Many.. Many ways to stop this... Not have half your army doing nothing and dying. Focus fire with vikings, punish the toss way earlier 3-3 upgrade charge and blink is not fucking cheap many windows of oppurtunity to do damage.

This build should not have worked at all. You shouldn't be asking how Terran stops it... You should be asking how the fuck did Polt just lose to that lol

It just takes few units lost on the map to lose to this kind of 3 3 timing attack when the terran prepared some stuff for every possible cheese while the protoss just turtled into pure macro.

Every race can "amove to end the game" when they are massively ahead. Watch any Zerg player when he is massively ahead, a move to win. Watch any Terran player when he is massively ahead, a move to win. It's how the game works man get fucking real.
There are things known, and things unknown, and in-between are the doors.

Yes I do, and it's a huge blunder if you let that happen. Period.

Try playing some high level TvP and report back. Thanks.


lol. what kind of logic is that. I'm sure if you ask polt, he would confirm, that it was a mistake. He seemed to assume a 2 base all in, a-la squirtle and realized way to late that toss just went double forge and chronoed the shit out of it.

"High level TvP" aside, that was a pretty poor showing from Polt of all people. We've gotten used to that guy just ripping protoss apart and thats how he plays?

Curiously, twitch works better at the free wifi at the Ezeiza airport as than at my home 100mbit academic connection ... well, I finally found one good thing to do at an airport

The series isn't really that great so far, but Artosis and Incontrol make an awesome casting duo!

After that last game I propose that they make Colossus start with the longer range and you have to research losing the range. they were so strong

I have to agree with that. In fact for me, herO is the only "heavy" favorite. Haven't seen sOs and Life though but Life's ZvP isn't that good.

You're so full of shit man, polt had his 3rd oc before dears 3rd nexus was even halfway complete. Polt made a ton of blunders
