Can anyone give me a quick crash course on how to tournament thread?
Just post a poll of the game for the recommend tab so people know if a VOD is worth while. Also just add the results in as quick as you can to keep people up to date. #Easy SPL ones are the better ones to do.
I'm also around to help edit in things anyway if it goes wrong.

what happened in early game? When I tuned in they were talking about MK titled and stuff, but he was up in supply and upgrades and bases all the time...
Marineking went for a greedy fourth and Leenock didn't take advantage of the fact that Marineking didn't pressure him at all. Could've harassed with mutas while posturing with his army outside Marinekings 3rd/4th, just to delay that base.
Either you transition faster into SH or hive or you max out and abuse mutas.

Lost reaper kinda early (not crucially early), lost his whole marine army for the medivac push-out to some lings, baneling mines that worked, hellions died. He looked titled, as in, his face, but the early 4rth CC was a great idea.

he accidentally lifted off all his ccs.
that's when I tuned in But he was so ahead in everything at this point, at least from what it looked like to me. Did he skip hellions or something?

He didn't go for the standard 1/1 push with medics because all his marines died. Started a fourth CC in response.

Nothing in particular he macroed properly. Leenock made a bunch of lings and banes to try and be agressive, MK lost a bunch of marines cost inneficently due to poor hellion positioning. Think he could have done a lot of damage if leenock commited to ling bane attack but he didn't and just transitioned into somewhat late 4th and delayed spire very awkwardly.

Epic widowmine hits
eh 24 lings isn't game ending just super annoying. Leenock was underdroned cause he was trying to be needlessly agressive .

It'd be smart (and I hope they do I anti him :D) and action could've done the job anyway. Still funny to see both him and TY being the heavy hitters in individual league for KT.

I feel like hes gonna have 50-50 chance against most and way less against say SKT/KT. So at an overpriced 7pts hes really a nice gamble for antiteam. Also, picking the remaining two should be easier when 7/13 points are filled
At the same time, Losira shoulda been a really nice main pick had he been valued at like 5 or 6 points

I figured that was what he was going for but it just made no sense that he wasn't splitting his army to surround with the banelings. Doing Attack move --> split is so inefficient against Terrans that split.

He almost won against a player that has roughly 6 times his skill, he should call them cash cakes then and use them.
That was insanely dangerous by Hero, he didn't have the anti air to protect Collosi, if Curious didn't sent mutas to defend he would have lost 3 collosi.

It's mostly about building an ideal composition Harrass just buys time, but once the SH deathball is there unless you killed the zerg with harrass you will need to fight it.

It is, boring Tempest transition is something you are forced to do if you don't do game ending damage with the harrass early on.

The only way Curios can lose this if they somehow trade air units a lot(which isn't happening atm) but Curios stays on ~30 workers(something he does a lot...) and just lose attrition wars in the end. LOL

10 pool vs forge first doesn't put you THAT far behind really if you only make the initial 6 lings and expand immediately after. HerO's initial screw up was not blocking the expansion, because Curious didn't send even one ling to handle the probe in his base, which I was really confused about. HerO even made a cannon just to be safe for whatever reason, making the economic deficit even closer.
Then he gave Zerg econ enough time to stabilize on 3 base before his first poke with the Voids+oracles, and STILL would have done lots of damage to Curious if he had not lost a Void Ray for practically nothing.
Really sloppy play from HerO. Good concepts, but sloppy, sloppy play.
To the people saying that Tempests are better than Carriers in this scenario, im specifically refer to players like Terminator who use Carriers in this scenario to a much higher success rate than i ever see Tempests do.

He also had to make extralings to avoid getting cannoned. Think biggest issue was just being fancy with his strats rather then just doing a fast nexus into 10 gate blink. Don't think Curious could have done a lot vs that, Even tho the map is fairly open.

Well, I don't know exactly why but over the years here on TL I really overcame my anger towards balance issues, boring playstyles and similar things. I am no longer weeping in anger, but instead feeling bored and passionless whenever a game tends to go in such a direction. It's the action packed, micro intensive, fast paced games that often evolve out of ZvT and TvT (and ZvZ sometimes) StarCraft that get me fired up. The concept of Protoss as a whole stands in the way of me enjoying the game to its full extent . I needed a while to realize that.

Plus carriers can't really protect themselves against viper pulls. Mass tempest will kill something, carriers just get pulled and die.
If you don't plan on microing Carriers are quite better than the Tempests though. Would have helped Hero a lot this game.
Carriers are only good in some timing attack when zerg isn't setup in lategame properly. Once all things are in place they are waste of money. I don't think Hero could have gone them this game.
i think people undervalue carriers greatly. Mass carrier/voidray would have won that game imo. Tempest are just bad, the last time tempest won against this zerg style was probably zest vs life. I think Hero had enough time (and stargates) to do it.

It's the action packed, micro intensive, fast paced games that often evolve out of ZvT and TvT (and ZvZ sometimes) StarCraft that get me fired up. The concept of Protoss as a whole stands in the way of me enjoying the game to its full extent . I needed a while to realize that.
I quite enjoy SH games if the level is high enough, I guess I am just very patient :D But both players need to know what the fuck they are doing, else it's just stupid so I just joke around on LR thread instead. Want to see a Zest vs Snute bo5 tbh.

That was a silver league game so both players A moving was what you would expect.
I don't think that with clumsy units such as the tempest, the void ray and the corruptor there would have been any micro involved that could not have been executed by a plat or diamond player. It's simply boring to see such fights.
I am not disagreeing or anything just trashing that game :D

Yeah i feel the same tbh. Imo PvP is the best matchup involving protoss :D TvP could be great too, IF templar openings would still be a thing.

Fungals makes interceptors useless I guess
Spore and Fungal ye
Plus carriers can't really protect themselves against viper pulls. Mass tempest will kill something, carriers just get pulled and die.
If you don't plan on microing Carriers are quite better than the Tempests though. Would have helped Hero a lot this game.
Carriers are only good in some timing attack
hahaha "timing attack" "carriers"
I've seen MC do some 11 min 2 base carrier i think but that was in WoL probably
As legit as a sharp 2/2 broodlord timing at minute 22.30 I think, right before Protoss hits enough Tempests to one-shot a broodlord. lol let's theorycraft

What?
The songname translates into "I'm the best". It's one of the most famous Kpop songs 116 mil views.

They even have aLive capitalize the L to make sure we overlook the a. Sneaky

Honestly, how could you think you could go 3 cc, double upgrades, on only 3 rax against Losira AFTER he already went for an early attack with lings and took away most of your hellions?
Wow, I picked aLive, just to beat his opponent in this round and then trade him next week... Didn't expect him to play the Ace, wtf? He's not THAT good lol
Sadly I don't have much hope for STYoe now. Unless Bomber gets his shit together or SKT finally #freeparting they just don't have a reliable ace anymore.

Gotta equilibrate that by having two MVP players on your main team d:

I think Leenock wouldn't be that bad of a choice. Curious is also quite good. San can be a nice trick. But I agree, they are lacking a real starplayer now.

Yeah, I thought they might land alright with Leenock at first.
Seems like he only recovered his ZvP :/
He's been losing left and right in ZvT and his ZvZ doesn't seem that amazing either.
I'm surprised MarineKing answered that Casanova question that quickly. I suspect a significant amount of even native English-speaking teenagers and young adults would be initially confused, if they knew what Casanova means or is at all.
San would have been a much better choice to play against Losira. He has a freaking 72% win rate versus the best Zergs in the world. I would say he could have beaten Losira. 72% win rate PvZ is pretty unheard of these days. San is definitely the best PvZer in the world right now.
