I guess I'll make a budget thread for this group.
If I was Zoun in that first game, I would've left as soon as the Stargate got depowered haha!

I think herO has been watching Rotti streaming with this third base location haha.
EDIT:
Big win for Zoun. Needs to make it stick in the winner's match!

He can be a little hot-or-cold and that's kinda frustrating, but when he's on his game he's a top-level Protoss.

So bunny knew forver that there was no 3rd and still just sent it? he had a reaper to see that the third was at least super super late.
|
The safer two-base Storm timing in this game is the exact kind of adjustment that was going to happen as soon as Terrans started pulling SCVs too frequently.
If Bunny had gone into a macro game it could've been fairly even going into the mid-game, but he ran his workers into the Thunderdome instead.

The thing is most Terran dont see macro PvT is playable, outside of Clem and maybe Maru. Bunny 3rd CC would still have been behind Classic anyway and he cant move out until he got better tech and upgrade.

It's perfectly playable if you can get to a Viking/Ghost or Liberator/Ghost late game.
The problem has been that Protoss is able to cut too many corners in the early game, so they've had too much of a lead going into the mid game, and so Terrans have been getting run over before they can get their late game tech.
This won't happen if Protoss is too scared to cut corners and Bunny had already confirmed that Classic wasn't cutting corners, so doing an attack that only works if Protoss cuts corners was a silly strategic decision.

the PvPs today have been wild lol

To play that lategame style you need at least a 4th base then trying to hold a 5th, but most Terran hasnt been able to hold their 4th against midgame Protoss army from what I have seen at top level.

Yea because protosses got a quicker third to snowball but if the protoss aint taking a 3rd until like 6-7minutes in he cannot snowball like that.
Edit: in g3 the canceled 3rd cc by bunny was still earlier than classics actual 3rd base.

herO on his last life.
It would be a massive upset if both herO and Maru failed to make the playoffs!
|
herO did really well to come back from how much of a disaster his Blink aggression was.
|
Zoun vs. The Rematch Curse.
|
Hoping for ideally Gumiho and Rogue to win to ensure a high-stakes final for the EWC spot!
2nd preference would be for both to lose and then a high-stakes bo5 for that spot.

Classic was still ahead on worker, has Storm - Charge - Blink and a Robo. Meanwhile Bunny has no Combat Shield, no EBay, only 3 Barracks, 1 Reactor. Even if Bunny could build a faster 3rd CC, he cant land that 3rd base while Classic can make more probes, take a 4th and get quicker upgrade.
Bunny already cutting corner for his timing push as well, so its not as straight forward as he can get back to a macro game with a quicker 3rd CC.

The PvP games today have been great. A lot more entertaining than I was expecting.
