The Colossi at least defended the 3rd, ht probably wouldn't have. Bbyong went for the optimal composition vs ht openings, which incidentely can work against Colo.
Am I missing something? Feedback didn't get nerfed. It still kills Medivacs dead.

it's useful but with this style your medivacs are never 100% energy. A single quick forge and a quick archive is the best way to handle it imo, but when you start with a proxied stargate it's impossible.

While Zest is definitely handsome, I feel Trap is even more so - and does not get enough recognition for it. You must be joking, Trap looks like a normal boy. But Zest, damn! He's carved from Mount Olympus by Zeus himself.
Trap is more "cute" while Zest is more manly.

He stimmed all the time, medevac energy was pretty low. But still - PArting had HUGE advantage. All he had to do was do a 2 base timing. NOT ALLIN! Timing! And he would have won. He didn't, he lost. His fault.

Let's say he flew back on the 18th, hr would have come back jetlagged and to some extent sleep-deprived on the 19th or early 20th. Not so strange.

May be a coincidence that the two players who return from HSC play one league below their usual level, but I don't think so. We'll see with PartinG's next series
