I don't think there's an advantage to Reynor going up to 100 Probes off 4 bases... | ||

He can have a bank early and re-max immediately on 20 Gateways to defend. And Solar keep smashing into that PRotoss wall of defense on 4 base while on a similar economy instead of out-growing Reynor. Clearly Solar thought he was playing against the herO style, but in fact he should be thinking about it as the Maru turtle style but with Gateway unit. Tech up, get the Lurker out and choking the Protoss on 4-5 base. | ||

I don't think his take on the style Reynor showcased on the second game was that bad, but in many engagements (especially when two or more were happening at the same time) he mismicroed or retreated erroneously apparently because of F2, otherwise he should have had it when he reduced Reynor to ~50 workers imo | ||

Thats the equivalent of fighting into 4 base Terran with full tech and defense setup. imo, he needs to switch gear into playing the grinding "mode" for it to work. | ||

The lack of player cams, replacing the couch with a proper desk, not having players take over casting on the main stream, and not having the B-stream be manned by an unplanned crew of players and guests in the basement makes it feel like a 'normal' premier tournament and not an HSC. | ||
