No need, 5 gas on three bases is what you want when you go for Roach max.

Going to trust in the judgement of a team in the playoffs of Proleague over yours.

Sure, the 0-2 record against answers that were not hilariously off speaks for itself.


This is as silly as saying that a bio player losing 0-2 proves that bio isn't viable, just because his composition wasn't hilariously off. You were tricked and have 2 vikings too few to defend his colossi. You didn't scout ahead enough and ran into some storms. Etc. etc.

In a pro game you can lose if anything is slightly off. That's common sense. You should know this.

I also choose to trust a professional gamer who was comfortable enough to let the game go that long and do it 3 times and surely has a much better understanding of the game than you to say it's not viable.

Believe if you want to believe. The day the mech:bio ratio isn't 500:1 anymore in high level Korean TvP, the conversations about the viability of mech can start. Until that's it's pure faith from people who want to believe vs the trial of reality.


Well when such an occurrence as the sudden burst of mech in TvT in MLG Anaheim (after people consider it not to be viable simply because it isn't played much) has happened, I can believe in anything. The one where Blue Flame was immediately nerfed afterwards and bio players auto-lost against mech players. Or in 2012 with mech finally being used in TvZ after being absent in GSL since virtually 2010. To me the amount of times a style is used isn't directly connected to how viable it is. Even Supernova mechs all the time in GM KR. Yeah yeah it's not a tournament match, but I doubt he would be wasting all his time practicing a strategy he doesn't think is viable.

So 4 years of pros randomly throwing it in and getting punished for it don't convince you.... alrighty then. Keep believing.
