I really hate him sometimes.... isn't he like gold? If the caster isn't allowed to make any calls on the game, why even have him casting? Presumably he has knowledge beyond the level of his actual play, that's the whole idea with a commentator There's a difference between commentating what's happening in the game, and making ignorant statements like "this composition just isn't viable." I can almost guarantee you that Bbyong wouldn't use this same strategy 3 times in a row if he didn't think it was viable. And if a Code S level player thinks that something is viable, and Wolf says that it isn't, I'm much more inclined to side with the Code S Terran here... That's fine but you can't expect a caster to act like a composition is fine until it's been proven that it is, and so far Bbyong hasn't been doing that. I disagree. I think he's very clearly shown that it's viable, though perhaps not polished enough just yet.
I agree with wolf. Even if this build is viable it seems very far from being figured out beyond catching a protoss off guard in a one off game here and there.
rather then looking at it just from the perspective that terrans still need to figure the build out, protoss players would have had very little practice against this kind of build compared to bio, and yet on average mech builds usually get absolutely recked by protoss regardless.

Nice....nice.... Zealously still getting his predictions from BW times also. Wax....where art thou  the place is falling apart Or maybe Plexa to just re take over the whole place and save us. There is a Code A preview. We even did a preview for WCS America CHALLENGER, that's how passionate we are. I don't think the writing stuff has ever done as much stuff. Probably since we've never had as many people You missed like two Code As last week and you also missed Preview for Game 2 of this Semi final  We didn't miss it, we didn't preview it because it was all-kill and predicting SKT's lineup is pointless. I did a BR instead!
Still could of recapped game 2 and wrote about it  I guess your call not mine but i thought it was worth writing about xD

Bbyong showing one of the most solid, obviously well-practiced and map specific Mech I've yet seen and it still doesn't work out for him. Pretty cool to see nonetheless

I root for herO but I find it stupid that phoenix can just fly in, kill 7 probes and a msc with no damage on the phoenix at all -.-

I mean, you don't know what happens in practice either. Maybe Bbyong gets megarekt with bio lately and slightly less rekt with mech, so he decides to do this over bio. You can't expect us to follow your idea based on what we don't know, we obviously need more than that (I think Maru said recently that mech was not so bad vs protoss, that would be an example of "more than that", but still not enough)

If that was the case then why send out Bbyong at all? It's not like CJ Entus doesn't have other good players. And I don't see how it working better than bio for a player of Bbyong's caliber can possibly be a point against it.
