I think people who watch PvP and go "This makes perfect sense" are lying.


PvP is like quicksand. The more you fight the more you sink.

The more you see them the more you hate them? (Protoss myself)


Nah, you just have to stay at the side and watch the people flailing while you laugh like a maniac.


Ba, ha, ha, ha, ha, look at Dear getting murdered by Adepts!

See? PvP is great.

but real talk now, why do terrans keep trying to going ultra late game with unit combination that just doesnt work, mmm get raped and destroyed by both p and z. i think this shows the reason why korean t dominate in gsl, they prepare timings against specific opponents and then coast to victory even if its late game, they will have much superior army, meaning they win anyway. that obviously didnt work in iem, as we have seen countless of games of equally sized terrans armies getting dismantled late game.


Late-game transition is know (watch Innovation vs Serral, Inno win ultra-late-game after playing bio), it only take way more time and money to establish in T than in Z/P. Plus it may be not that strong atm if you are not way ahead going into it.

And if the T transition too fast in mid-game, he just die, because way less units + early Terran T3 units are simply bad vs mid-game Zergs (ghost vs ling/banes ? rushed ranged liberators vs l/b/m ?) + T can't be aggressive so creep and zerg eco is uncontrollable.

So from times to times, there were meta and maps (split maps scenario) when T was doing this, camping all game long to late-game, making mass ghosts/ravens. Everyone cryed imba and each time this was nerfed to the ground.
It was not necessarily imba but kinda unfun and boring and a bit un-terrany. Two players camping do not make greats games.

I just default to cheering for Stats honestly.

Tbh no one is talking about it, but he deserves another premier championship soon. Last year he made BlizzCon, GSL vs the World, Code S finals and ST1 but only won the Super Tournament

Maybe because everything else doesn't work? Think about it. THey. Do. This. For. Money. But probably you know better with so much success.

clearly i understand that, but you have to question there choices of building liberators against 300ling armies....

Yeah, it's not like we have 4 mirrors and none of them is TvT in RO8 while in RO12 we had astonishing amount of 1 Terran.

Hey, stop whining, enjoy the shitshow!!!!!

Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Dear just does not care, he dumps those Adepts in and murders Probes.

Kinda reminds me of Terrans discovering blue flame Hellions.

That;s interesting theory, I don't play Terran yet I post here and don't watch the stream.

Agreed, even with that poor early game donating those 3 hellions which made his follow up hellbat attack impossible to even get off the ground his mid-game was great. Lategame was quite poor tho not enough thors when I feel like he had enough time to react to the broods and leaving the tanks in the middle to be picked off, although there was so much going on at that point that I feel i might have missed something that made him do that.

I think had started making thors when he scanned the brood lords for the first time he wins the game for sure. And he was never as close to winning a game again as he was at that point.
