Same can be said for oracles. I can't wait for the rolling ball of doom in lotv too.

Totally agree though.

Yeah, these units are so dumb Though I like the revelation skill and another detection. Reworking the damage and making it somehow new arbiter ... oh boy! But that's my Fantasy, no Reality

It's really amazing to see you making excuses for a player you like, haha


He's not entirely wrong. Between Oracles, Blink, mine drops, Hellions, into multiple-drop fest versus Colossus defense into mass Storm + LAZORS... TvP is a matchup that turns on moments of only seconds to secure either a win or a massive lead. It's very different from TvZ or TvT for instance, where parade push siege battles can go on for minutes at a time and the constant positional tug of war of tank armies take both lots of time and patience.

I am not even saying he is wrong, but it still amuses me

Well, I'm glad that you admit I'm right. Concession accepted.


I think that Rain should beat Fantasy though, he just didn't play well

The only time I've ever seen TaeJa go mech was against Flash at IEM Toronto (they both went mech), he lost that game and went straight back to bio <.<.

It's just that if you don't do something cheesy to put the Terran on the back foot, or to kill a bunch of SCVs early, Terran is extremely strong in the mid-game against Protoss. If you do what Rain did - sit back and play that respectful macro style - you're essentially forced into making zero mistakes, or you're just dead against a decent Terran.


And Protoss is extremely strong in the late-game against Terran if the Terran doesn't get a lot of damage in.

Did you watch MMA vs PartinG? Did you see what happens when all the drops get shut down? Dead Terran.


MMA played awfully, not even close to what we just saw.
I bet Fanta with this style would defeat PartinG too, unless Parting would so some early aggression. No other way to survive as protoss.

PartinG defended flawlessly compared to Rain tho.

Different maps, different builds, different terran player, completely incomparable. And MMA played terribly, especially compared to the play we just saw from Fantasy. Plus, Rain plays a style which just isn't very viable anymore because it puts your fate in the hands of one or two split-second moments where where you're looking at on your screen basically decides the outcome of the game. We've gone over this in the past few pages of the thread.

I can see it coming, Taeja lost GSL/SSL in the ro32 and now wins IEM and crushes everyone. The Taeja fans and anti fans will go crazy and the discussion about how good he is will never end :/.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
