Yeah but you have a higher chance of killing at least a Phoenix if you don't move, because otherwise they will move out of the marine range as they drop while the medivac attempts to flee. So in that situation it is strictly better not to move your Medivacs. So the casters are fine. Pretty sure they did not claim what you think they did, but maybe I just missed it.

So... if Ryung got a bonus for beating avilo 2-0 and keeping the tournament on track...

But I think he just lost it for getting carrier'd.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

God, Ryung always makes questionable decisions like that. I know there's hindsight and all that, but why does he not feel comfortable playing the lategame against an NA protoss?

Yea it's so strange T.T. Ryung was so deadly in TvT and not too bad in the other matchups.

Well in his defense; zealots only apparead a handful and at the end. He was gas hungy with storm, templar, colossi and tempest.
Wouldn't have researched charge with the amount he had planned and ultimately made.

Excited for the 3 Koreans that will qualify.


I hate myself.

Hey it might not be the best system in people's opinion but at least they have the regional qualifiers so it's not 8+ koreans a season or whatever

i like to imagine what it would be like if the USA constantly complained about international soccer championships being too hard for americans to win and demanding an automatic seed

we are competent enough in the last 2 decades that the region locked qualifier for us is basically an automatic seed

i don't actually know that much about the world cup, it was just the first thing that came to mind as a thing that america actually tries to compete at yet and consistently fails to top the field

that's my theory for why so many americans hate soccer and make fun of it: if americans aren't the best, something must be wrong with the sport (same goes for sc2 hahaha)

World Cup is actually one of the arguments people have been using for region locking WCS since it's region locked with non equal number of seeds from each region. Some of the ideas tossed around were that you would lock each region giving Korea the most spots at Blizzcon, then EU, then AM etc..

Caliber gambled well, and pulled it off. I disagreed with the decision of hiding the phoenix, and not putting up pressure, but it turned out to be the right decision since he caught out the medivacs. I also disagreed with all the cannons, but he was right in anticipating that Ryung was going to attack into it.

when your marines come out of the dropship stimmied, they have enough movement kill the pheonix

if u are moving your medivacs around while dropping, atleast u might be able to fake the P out a bit with the movement and your medivac lasts just 1-2 seconds longer maybe getting out another marine

besides you arent going to be killing a pheonix if the Protoss is halfway decent and can pull a damaged one away

whereas the important thing is unloading as many marines out as possible before your medivacs go down, and moving medivacs might last longer

Normally I would not fault a guy for doing that: If a player enjoys playing longer games and feels greater success playing that way, all the power to him. But because it's avilo, I want to blame him for schedule problems. And because he's an idiot

But the micro required to stim each individual marine while doing that is silly and is highly unlikely to work out, not to mention that in order to kill a Phoenix you need to focus fire in that situation which is even harder.

Or the more obvious reason: it's at best the 8th most popular sport in the US, clearly behind the NFL, NBA, MLB, NCAAF, NHL, NASCAR, and NCAAB (probably ranked in that order, counting college different from the pros).

Hmm. There is actually a small but fairly dedicated bunch of people that follow the MLS (major league soccer) but probably still behind those.

If the Protoss is halfway decent, the moving medivacs won't last any longer than a stationary medivac, since the phoenix just need to roughly shadow the medivacs to have full dps. To be honest, stationary and moving medivacs barely make any difference in this case though. In both cases you will probably not get a phoenix.

btw moving does make a difference, cause in theory u can split your medivacs, one goes north, your 2nd medivac goes south for example

then this is guarenteed more lasting time for your medivacs than if u just stood in place

yea its not a big difference but which do u think is better?

im pretty sure i see T players keep moving and drop out of their medivacs on the move rather than stand in place, more often than not
