Its very hard to hold the third base on that map against terran, so he rolled the dice on a map cure would likely win


I know that but robo+twilight+double forge AND a ninja expo after an oracle opening?

that's not a good enough answer

why not blink all-in or proxy oracle


He did what he thought would have the biggest chance of winning.

well, outplayed pretty quickly


Outplayed?He just was too greedy and got killed.

Cure was in position for the oracle, it didn't do damage. herO went for the hidden nexus, Cure found it, it did nothing. herO wanted to counter attack because he knew Cure wouldn't be in position, walks into a mine, loses a colossus, also loses all probes in his main. Outplayed.

Yeah I was surprised he went double forge so confidently. That part is confusing to me

I like the hidden nexus on Catallena, I've been doing an oracle -> templar build with hidden third (because storm + charge warpins can defend the nexus from small drops easily) as well as a prism for counter warpins. Not sure if it's as good with double forge colossus after oracle. The moveout was so silly though.

well the ninja expo really is just 4 less zealots in the end because you rely on it not getting scouted, no idea why he didn't cancel

Not to be against Yawn (ToD), but how many observers you are supposed to make on Catallena? You need colossi to defend, you cannot make 4 or 5 observers in a row to not die to drops
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Observers > colossi though, I go for a quicker storm to compensate the lack of aoe

herO already confirmed to be one of the better Protosses in the tournament, he's only the second Protoss with a map win <.<.

Did he played Catallena? I didn't follow WCS AM because time zones(and no players I wanted to see)
