seems like TaeJa doesn't get to play many TvTs lately and has gotten a bit rusty at it.

Haha. The people wanted TvT. You got your TvT. Just wonder how it might have went as a TvP. Could it be the more exciting mu now?


there is still tvz. Yolo drop TvP are really fun if the P defends decently tho.


TvZ and TvP >> TvT imo.

even ZvZ and PvP >>>> TvT nowadays. If nobody's meching it's a shitty match up (because after the early game you enter the let me boost into your base phase, which sucks)

I hear missile turret rings do quite well against preventing doom drops.

Spending 600+ minerals in the early game is usually a bad idea

I assumed "Let me boost into your base phease" was meant for midgame and lategame, not early game.

Yeah, boost doom drops aren't seen that much anymore unlike when hots first came out, where even terrans were complaining about medivac boost being overpowered..

What actually happened to TvT that made them so much more volatile?
Is it the 1-1-1 gas firsts that everyone goes to nowadays?

Also what happened to oldschool gasless fe into rax#2 and #3 , is that opening not viable anymore due to reapers or ?

Reapers are not the problem, there is just less incentive to do this when siege mode upgrade no longer exists and banshee cloak cost was reduced. The alternatives became better. You can still do it but it's hard to defend against 111 (and even in WoL it wasn't easy -- now they have a few hundred more resources).

Losing such TvTs is no shame, he went over several KR players to get to the finals


NA is the new KR?

Koreans who won in Ro16: Hyun (AM), San, (EU), Polt (AM), Violet (AM), Taeja (AM), Stardust (EU).

Koreans who lost in Ro16: Trust (KR), Supernova (KR).

Confirmed, Korea is worst Korea.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

Its quite clear to me after yesterdays finals TvT needs a hero unit being able to cast something like Photon Overcharge to actually stabilize the mirror! We cant just have one base vs one base aggresion T.T

IMO, Remove Planetary Fortress and give Orbital Command ability to open sides for cannons.
