nice way to fend of banshee with Mothership core, alas Warhound imba. xD

Ra vs Kawaii g1 was by far the most interesting pvt i've seen in ages.

What was interesting about it? Missed it myself just tuning in now

Awesome harass by Ra, several back and forth battles, mothership vortexes, sniped nexai(?). not like WOL pvt where it all ends in one battle.

White Ra makes this beta freaking fun to watch for me.

That first game was cool purely thanks to DT and Zealot/Warp Prism harrass, but the main deathball vs deathball battles were just as bad as ever.

Third game somewhat fun because of a couple nukes. Everything else, same old same old.

Blizzard needs to fix their ugly artificial pathing (among several other things but that would be a big start). Starbow has completely spoiled me, I can't enjoy regular SC2 anymore.

yeah even with almost no HotS stuff involved, the games turn out really interesting and some go so base heavy. You get heavy early aggression and long macro games.
And well White-Ra just plays Protoss in a beautiful way. (feels a bit bwish)

I've seen that a lot in his PvT games that got uploaded to Youtube. It seems you have to chip away at Terrans all over the place, throw your ball at them and have enough bank to throw another ball at them if necessary.

Kind of cool games though here

I guess we can see that players are still too scared to use new units in tournament setting. Quite understandable actually, especially on the protoss side.

grats white-ra for 3rd place !

and we have seen alot of use from the useful units. Viper missing, but swarmhost infestor style blocks the viper a bit costwise.
Why get an oracle if you can get a speed prism for harass (which unlocks robo tech fully) and well widowmine is owned by its 2 supply cost.

Battle hellions really deal with light melee units way to effective though x3.

grats illusion. I like the swarmhost even more now, makes the zerg feel the pain when your siege units are grabbed unsieged lol.

This proves that WhiteRa doesn't give a shit about balance and speshul tactiks cannot be nerfed.

Grats to Illusion, Catz and Ra.

I can't wait to see some sort of major korean hots tournament.
