In WoL I would just build a medivac and 4 hellions and instawin against any toss. Then again, I was gold at the time so =)

That promotes anti micro or whatever David Kim said.

I have no idea, so probably not. The key part of the build was that we were in gold and I had like 25 clicks to do right in the whole game.

Damn, I did a good job of derailing the topic by mistake. On topic, that was a really nice scrappy game, it seems to be a trait of Major today.

Okay, bets for Violet versus Taeja.
Taeja goes Cloak Banshee once, Violet tries to Roach bust once, and Taeja 2-raxes in game 3.

This is in 2 games, TaeJa wins 2-0

Yeah, especially since Taeja pulverized Arthur and is currently enjoying the smoothie born of his efforts.

Did Major really boosted a medivac with a single ghost and dropped it to EMP the clumped templars? So sexy, and Tod saying he has bad ghost control a few minutes before
