but that argument scales as long or as short with any amount of time.

2 years later we could be saying everyone was doing shit wrong right now. Gotta appreciate intelligent strategies and creativity in the context of their time.

On the other hand, if Rainbow makes a nonzero number of marauders, it doesn't work at all


But he didn't! So Fruitdealer won.

As it is with many strategies that work in important games but could have been defeated with hindsight, throughout the ages.

For sure. I don't mean to take anything away from Fruitdealer's win, just saying that ultras sucked then too lmao

Is there a Terran Lambo that can break down why BC in TvP is underused/actually trash? I'm like, baffled by how it's Cure's special move, but not frequently imitated. I'm willing to accept any kind of analysis about it, be it "it's not actually good but it works cause people don't think about it" or "it's really good and it should be used a lot more in TvP"

Honestly,

every time I see this build it either works very well or almost works. I've never seen it outright fail.

Also, Artosis has lost his passion if he hasn't seen this build yet.

The meta moves in circles, balanced all the while on a gleaming razor's edge

obscure music references aside, not honestly sure why people just stopped using bunkers this way. i guess incontrol was right when he said the salvage change made the bunker rush not viable anymore

Because the pro goto opening is blink stalkers? I am no Lambo

Stats was absolutely atrocious. You've not seen him as bad as today in years, he made it super easy for Maru. Inno vs soO was entertaining, a mechanical battle of two guys who couldn't possibly be assed to play smart.

Yeah, it turns out Inno has a slightly thicker skull so he won the headbutting contest.

... So we got a BC in a protoss base with a bunch of bunkers marines and ST's vs a random collosus and some stalkers

Because of an accidental finishing shade!

I would think so too. The standard Blink + Robo (Observer) should counter most BC rushes pretty easily.

They didn't, ultras at the time of FD's win were bugged and actually very strong (I think it was their cleave damage applying to buildings)
