Still i hate the storm/colossi/archon combination. too much rely on the coinflip "do the storms hit?" (especially in narrow aereas not THAT hard) Agreed, but what we do other than wish that somehow this is magically fixed in the next iteration. | ||

If you think that San only boxed his army you don't know anything about Starcraft. I mean, if San had had to send his army to 3 different places to sandwich Polt at the end there it would have looked great - as it was all that mattered was that the HT didn't get EMP'd, and the army positioning didn't matter. It was just a disappointing end to a superb game. | ||

Lead with scan, or small group of bio. If you eat storm/archon on vikings before they are shooting colo, that's like autoloss on that fight . | ||

I think the bigger problem is just shift-clicking on all the collusus and hoping for the best. After a few seconds there are archons under your vikings and then the all disappear so fast. I'm not sure why Polt didn't try and micro them a bit to get a few more shots in. As it is, he didn't even get 1 collosus so they were essentially dead supply | ||

Sure, you lead with Scans and small groups of bio. Problem is that if you redirect all your control groups, as someone else has said, Vikings move faster than the rest of the army. Often it isn't worth the APM to micro the Vikings back over pre-splitting the army so you don't get insta-gibbed by Storm and a lucky Colossi shot. 1 Storm on the Vikings is not auto-loss. It's a balancing act that's not as simple as 'never lead with Vikings' or 'always do X'. | ||
