I watch SPL,WCS,IEM,DH,ASUS,Everything else It's just that it's a really overpowered strategy that people don't really whine about because terrans dont overuse it like protoss did blink all ins.

Don't you realize how much of a contradiction this sentence is?


No why is it? It has like a 100% winrate people know what to do against it but the thing is theres nothing you can really do against it at best you save your natural while the terran has their natural and 3rd coming or you lose your natural and you're literally dead then and there but people keep on playing. If a blink allin happened you knew what to do but you lost anyways. It's the same here. Everyone whined about blink allins and their success rate but noone does so with 2rax due to the infrequency of it. Which makes it seem as not overpowered.

Let's spell this out for you.
This guys are professionals. The game is how they make their living. If something is strong, they use it over and over again (see broodlord infestor, even though several zergs said they hated it!).

If people dont 2Rax often, its because it isnt that great all the time. It's great as a surprise tactic. No more, no less.


I know that I'm just sick of the disgusting hypocrisy this community shows


This isn't hypocrisy, this is you being wrong. A well-executed 2rax is strong, but it's not unbeatable or anything close to unbeatable.


The hypocrisy about blink allins being unbeatable and everyone whining about it and now nobody whines about 2rax when it's just as strong as a blink allin and i hate it


The comparison isn't fair at all because the strength of blink was present throughout early- and midgames, whereas the 2rax can only be used as an opener. Blink builds had a million variants and uses on all maps, the same isn't true for 2rax.


Lame !@#$%^&* is lame !@#$%^&* and Sc2 would be a lot better without it.


The blink builds that won everything no longer work as well, do they?


At least not at pro level, but it is (was) comparable to 2-rax because it's boring to play against and boring to watch. Early game aggression is great, but it needs to be about low risk/low reward instead of "one tiny mistake into gg".

The problem with 2 rax, however, is that its extremely difficult to nerf, while it was alot easier to change maps a bit and nerf Msc to fix blink all ins.

No. It depends on player performances in WCS EU and AM I think.

100%


No, Something like 91%.

This happens
~ 3.21 % of the time
ForGG gets 1st in WCS EU S3 Premier and
Scarlett gets 1st in WCS AM S3 Premier
This would change INnoVation's Blizzcon chances
from ~ 92.07 % to ~ 0 %

This happens
~ 1.64 % of the time
Bunny gets 1st in WCS EU S3 Premier and
Scarlett gets 1st in WCS AM S3 Premier
This would change INnoVation's Blizzcon chances
from ~ 92.07 % to ~ 0 %

This happens
~ 1.15 % of the time
Pigbaby gets 1st in WCS AM S3 Premier and
ForGG gets 1st in WCS EU S3 Premier
This would change INnoVation's Blizzcon chances
from ~ 92.07 % to ~ 0 %

A bunch of similar situations. Basically the wrong two people have to win WCS EU/AM- ForGG/Bunny and Scarlett/Pigbaby/HerO.

It's amazing that TL warns people for writing "kappa" and ignoring suicide jokes.


Take moderation issues to Website Feedback instead of derailing this thread.


SSed this.


What does that mean?


I probably should not be surprised by your reaction, seems that many people generally take suicide subject rather lightly considering the fact that it does not happen as often.


We have an established policy against Twitch memes on TL which we enforce consistently. We do not have a policy against puns that make fun of the fact that soO (soOicide) has it really tough, and we do not moderate it consistently unless we see that the post making the joke is serious. With that said, if you have any more questions about moderation please don't use this thread for them. Feel free to PM me.

on the plus side, it sure will be a story if soO can manage to win blizzcon

He won't, he will be second and first will be whoever manages to get in the finals with him.

I really hope to see soO in the next finals too. Always worried getting second once again will break him, but he's proven us all wrong so many times now. He's going to win soon.

He's 15th. If Scarlett or Pigbaby or someone wins WCS AM and someone wins WCS EU to push them into top 16, but I'm not sure who is left to do that other than Bunny.
