watching them all try to hide their boners is so cute

No energy for anyone. Someone must have been doing a Spirit Bomb or something.
|
Either herO wins easy or looses with a horrid display.
|
Maru : "I have a good chance". Ok then, I get one energy bar instead of zero.

TL writers all have varied opinions, biases, and player favorites. Can't really equate that to a site.

I dunno, Maru's harassment style vs Protoss still works. Unfortunate that herO's DT move failed though, which put him quite far behind at the start.

Move command just ruined herO. Lost soo much.

No way that Toss wins vs Terran in this type of base trade

There was like a 1% chance for herO to win that basetrade but with move commands like this it goes down to 0%
|
Maru is still just too good at TvP.
|
herO vs Maru games are generally pretty entertaining. Was it on MGR where he forgot to make a building and lost?

why would you even play macro vs terran... I think the only way to beat top terrans is by alling

If herO meets Maru later this day, I'm sure he would all-in him.

No the best protoss in PvT would be Parting, but that's not because of his defence but his overall PvT game sense, knowing when to attack, defend, cheese, all-in, etc.
The protoss with best defence in PvT would be probably Rain.

The only reason why Terran can even play vs Protoss is the ability to drop, it's an assymetrical advantage, but not one which is imba however fucking frustrating it is to deal with goddamn drops

Whilst i agree with you, Bbyong did also lose 2-0 to sOs in GSL not like sOs is a bad player but i don't know. Seems strange how sOs can beat Bbyong 2-0 and then Rain lose to him so easily.

Rain just macro's up and let's Bbyong go to his crazy stage and then Bbyong got a better feel of the game. Also, Rain was sleepy

I hate phoenix wars. Makes so many build paths less viable for the one opting for less phoenix
|
|
So what do you do in Classics situation? Try catch up in phoenixes?
|
2nd stargate? Classic is SOOO dead Edit: 3rd SG on the way
|
can't wait for sOs vs Maru.

Yup, Classic is deader than dead

Jesus. Gonna be sooo many phoenix.

These two played that cool air vs air game on maze didn't they?
Hopefully it turns into one like that :D

I always 2-base all in vs mass phoenix. With templar archons and stuff. Seems VERY valid to me.

Some good damage dealt by Classic but not worth it in the end

Hallucinations and observers are good, as are Blink pokes. Tons of Protoss players play styles designed to repel drops in PvT and these usually involve splitting your army in two between nat and third. Protoss wins a lot in late game and are often able to defend, just as Terran is often able to win through drops and whatnot. It's not a problem at all.

I dont really know what to say when you are seriously claiming late TvP is T favoured or that drops are imba. Yes they are annoying but without drops the game is unplaybale because P turtles till storm/colossi and 20+ warpgates and gets a 60+% winrate. Go watch some recent Zest PvT games. Get an observer ring and split your army right and every drop gets shut down hard

Classic PvP won't work against sOs, you have to be inventive to beat his strats

ok, I'm changing my predictions..... sOs > Classic sOs > Maru Classic > herO Classic < Maru... sOs and Maru??!!!

The story here was just that sOs managed to get ahead in Phoenix wars, nothing else.

I feel that this is a stupid "way" to balance the game because Terran has such powerful drop potential because they can never head-on fight a Protoss late game army as long as the Protoss doesn't fuck up. Even with nukes Maru couldn't do it.
On paper it looks balanced because Terran has sort of "counter play" against protoss late game army, but its frustrating for both races, Protoss because the drops are so powerful and for Terran its because they can never fight against a protoss late game army.

Hallucinations and observers are good, as are Blink pokes. Tons of Protoss players play styles designed to repel drops in PvT and these usually involve splitting your army in two between nat and third. Protoss wins a lot in late game and are often able to defend, just as Terran is often able to win through drops and whatnot. It's not a problem at all. Hero splited his army into 2 groups didn't spot 2 medivac that were coming to his main and lost. For me it seems like you have to get lucky when defending drops, hero didn't make any big mistakes and one unspotted drop ended the game.

They can fight it, depending on composition and timing and positioning. See the SCV pull for example, which relies on the timing window just before storm with only three colossus. A heavy viking count which gets one free volley on a heavy colossus army can roll it as well. But yes, the game overall relies on Terran doing mid-game damage in order to either win or to gain an immense advantage until they can straight-up destroy Protoss.

Protoss goes 3 obs usually, not five, in PvT. More cuts into colossus production.

I think you only do probe+pylon scouts around your base when your tech isn't the usual route and which has cut into obs production, like phoenix/coloss openers, some Blink ones and some Oracle ones.

They have a larger stake in the game anyway, so it makes sense then if they do balance whine a lot. At lower levels it doesn't matter so much, only to your ego if you think you lost a game because of imba drops

at least the way I've gotten it, and I might be wrong, you only use pylons and probes when you haven't gone a generally standard build. That is, defensive Blink into Coloss, Coloss into Blink and so on. Builds which are more gas heavy or offer less time to build obs due to an SG or Dark Shrine or heavy Blink pressure eats up the gas so you rush to coloss without more than like one obs or so.

sOs has such garbage engagements..

Typical sOs fails

Predictions on point today!
I think Maru will lose to Classic and then win against either sOs/herO.

okay now let's see how classic will deal with drops or will he just cheese him? :D

This is fucking genius by Maru

So very Maru to do a proxy rax at the beginning of a series

These poor Protoss players. Trapped in a group with Maru

Well fucking played Maru. Without the zealot this hold is impossible

if he saved the msc he could have won

It looks like he would have won if he saved the mama
|
Terran knows bullshit too!
|
Let's say either the MSC or the second stalker survived, I think Classic holds?
|
Tbh that was quite close. Usually when i cancel the zealot i just die, Classic could've won that.
|
i'm betting when classic saw his stalker surrounded by scvs he had a flasback of losing his stalker to Parting's zealot and probes
|
By the way, the sOs throw is exactly why match fixing accusations are hard. How can you argue that programers are elite players when they do dumb shit like this?

The beauty is that almost all protoss do the low ground pylon in that spot vs T these days, it was so open to being sniped and then an early supply block. But Maru didn't even need that

Omg go Maru! But why couldn't you do this in ProLeague? T_T

why terrans dont do 2 rax more often ? It's a straight win 50% of the time and if the protoss holds then you usually dont even get behind (at least with Maru)

Good defense by classic at that third - looked really dangerous for a moment
|
Very well done by Classic
|
|
that one misstep with the army...
|

Typically Maru. Getting damage done everywhere
|
Don´t walk your colossi towards marauders.

Classic why would you even make a 3rd just tempest rush...

Maru's TvP skill would scare me if I were any Protoss in the Ro8

I loved that period where every single TvZ he started with a 2rax and just transitioned into win afterwards.

Alrighty, Maru decides to throw

Where is your concave Maru?

Are ypu freaking kidding me Classic? Are you serious?

oh no, he's obtained the power of Inca o.O

Maru makes a few vikings, almost dies. Maru stops building vikings, gets back in the game.
|
Classic should have gone for the kill. His army is so slow.
|
man what is this twitch lag sigh
|
|
Classic should have this easily.
|
I can't believe Maru almost made it.

Yes this must be over now

It makes me sad to think that one of Maru, Classic and sOs is going to be eliminated

I still think the other base is better as the 3rd. All drops have to go above it

Classic's defense is solid

Maru should really kill these observers.

Maru ... you are too crazy here.
|
You dont drop on 30 zealots with only 1 colossus

Maru getting ahead of himself haha
|
That last drop was a bit too much :D
|
yeah maru, drop right into 3621 chargelots...
|
|
Classic's main base is in trouble now
|
Looks like Maru is whittling Classic down.
|
It's so hard to watch as Protoss, those drops are sooo annoying my god

back home, is Classic kicking Maru's ass so far or not?

Impressive stuff by Maru. I didnt see him going out of that group after his baaaaaaaad performances the last times, specially in PL. It all went downhill for Classic after that 1 wrong army split and loosing th third
|
Still, Classic's play was incredible.
|
Damn Classic should have went for a base trade like in Game 2... (Once he lost his third)

PvT is the new TvZ best match up in the game

Maru is so good, seriously. Well deserved win

Well Maru truly deserves the win. He is relentless and it must take super skill to play like this

Too bad Maru gets Rogue. I think he'll still win cause Rogue can't get past ro8, but it'd be more interesting if got Dear again.

Kinda reminded me of Maru vs Dear on Frost when Dear won GSL. The non stop drop harass by Maru for ages but in this case Maru eventually managed to start breaking through the great D,

Maru is probably the only T that makes bio look overpowered against P. Simply ridiculous.

I dont get it, why do they let Maru drop them relentlesly without even try to harrass his economy. Classic had like 8 observers and all he did was defending his bases while Maru getting new expansions for free

Probably no time to setup forward pylons since Maru was all over the map and no free warp gate/robo time for harassing..

So, Maru regaining some of his former glory? herO and Classic have exceptional PvT, usually. Couldn't watch the games so can someone let me know if this was the case, or if they totally dropped the ball?

After the very successful defense of the beginning, Classic was 10 probes up but Maru had the bigger income and defending the third base seems very difficult on the map. Classic split like a champ, had flawless multitasking but the trades were barely in his favor if they were at all. Of course it's also because Maru has a perfect control himself that it looked so impossible for Classic.
I'd say, on this map, against Maru when he's playing at his best, protoss needs some successful cheese in the early game.

Here's a scenario for you: what if Maru wins this GSL and Rain wins this S2SL? Both SC2 OSL champs would simultaneously have taken one each of all 3 titles.

does he really though? i mean he's a strategical genius and executes what he chooses to do more often than not. but in terms of army control and engagements he's often lacking and not as crisp as someone like Zest. i don't see Zest parking his army on widow mines or losing his mothership core for no reason. unless that was a cute diss at Zest

I have to 100% disagree with stu. sOs doesn't have zest's execution and this game showed why. Zest would NEVER EVER EVER have lost the way sOs just did. Losing those immortals to pure blink stalkers (which is something only herO does, because it sucks) would never happen to Zest. He would laugh, smack it down and win the game that way, as you should. sOs threw his lead away there.

Yeah but if herO hadn't gotten his first stalker stuck behind his base, then he would have held more comfortably, then he makes an oracle instead of a defensive phoenix, and then maybe he flies the oracle into sOs's mineral line? Maybe?

Good game. Back and forth
|
So wait, now it's Maru vs Roge in Ro8 and 2ndplace vs Dear?
|
sOs up to his usual tricks again
|
I think herO's attack will work.

herO defeats his nemesis :O
|
not a great finish.. yikes
|
|
|
Bomber's medivacs, sOs's mammacore, and Byul's vipers need to start an abuse support group.
|
|
|
I feel either herO or Classic will beat easily Dear. Rogue is tricky to play against. The winner of this will be quite happy.
|
THANK YOU ZEST AND KT for MSI MGA ...!!!!! Otherwise, it would be endgame ...
|
At least Maru wasn't the one smashing sOs' dreams

Fun fact : we didn't see Iron Fortress or Vaani even once today. Cactus Valley & Expedition Lost appeared only once. Guess they don't like big/cheesy maps

Classic seems to be tilting pretty hard this game.

wtf herO didn't finish last in this group? o.o

This game perfectly shows why I like hitman

This looks a lot like chess. As opposed to 2011 TvT.

Just woke up. How did this group that doesn't contain mech last this long?
|
Come on herO. This is beyond Fantasy gg timing.
|
That was awful beyond comprehension.... did we just wait 30 minutes just for herO to move like a retard?

yea i wasn't saying anything about the quality of the players. it was more about the matchups in the group. i was also expecting some proxy gate shenanigans and the occasional maru cheese.

herO had this game in is bad if he had just targeted the immortals in the first engagement....
|
Yes Classic has done it!!
Now let's wait 10 more minutes until herO decides to leave the game
|
After the incredible games vs Maru I'm actually really happy for Classic!
|
Yay, Maru and Classic advanced just as I wanted!

wow did this group really just finish impressed to see Maru winning, sad for herO

games were great but i felt personally disappointed not to see sOs vs Maru. Also herO was sloppy in PvT and seems like he focused his preparation on PvP.

yes it would have, herO had more gates than classic and classic for some reason kept trying to expand (could have almost been his downfall)
In the second engagement herO sniped the immortals and was only 1-2 stalker behind. Imagine now a second fight without those immortals because his stalkers stayed long enough in the first engagement to kill them.

Really tough group, but in the end the 2 better players today advance, which is fair.
Maru vs Classic was really good quality. Classic play almost perfectly, but Maru was even better !
Honestly the only big mistake of Classic in game 3 was to aim for the late game. Maru in this form seems uneatable on this map if you don't cheese him. I can't see a protoss win the game that Classic lose. Even a flawless defense from Rain would not have been enough I would argue. He was on fire, never letting his opponnent breathe.
I'm glad Classic managed to get out of the group nonethless, he deserves it after this game against Maru.

Maybe in the eyes of Liquipedia but in Korea it was just a Tier 2 event.

Median outcome: Maru 35-34 Classic Estimated by Aligulac. Modify. they had the exact same rating at 2235 I could be wrong but I believe there is are further unshown decimal digits for ratings. I remember picking 2 people who the same whole number rating and it not coming out to 50/50 when I matched them up so this is more than just same rating to the 1s digit I think Could it be related to MU specific ratings?
