I wonder what would have happened if Boxer had been Protoss O.O

But Terran has been considered underdog race at the early pioneering days of Starcraft you know, so I think they deserve this luxury: I call this Magikarp Effect.

This build itself is actually not all-in. Bringing 11 scv's does make it all-in, yes, but if you scout no robo, you have a free win pretty much as marines/thor/scv's will beat all gateway units if microed properly. If there is a robo pumping immo's, you just back off, and have the gas/tech/resources to get fast banshees for an even easier win. The marine pressure out of reactor forces a bit more gateway units then a robo-toss would normally get, delaying immos. Also, if you can hide the fac properly (on maps like LT it's very easy), the toss is more inclined to fast tech to coli (due to your heavy marine opening) giving you even more of an advantage with the first push. Anything less than 3 immortals can be beaten if you have good micro and don't get surrounded by any pulled probes.

Nice execution LZ, glad to see this build in action.

I was just wondering why thor rushes with scvs are not used. Well I didn't expect to see it THIS way... more like early factories into hellions into thors with scvs.

Boxer played Protoss until some patch nerfed Protoss (specificaly Dragoons I think) so he switched to Terran.

Boxer's first games consisted of Zealot rushes only

That Thor was like Achilles in the the movie Troy

Im not a terran player but i think that unit is sick enough to make anyone want to play terran atleast a lil bit

Everyone who's saying how protoss should have warped near mineral line needs to realize its not so easy to think like that when you have your base under fire and honestly if not for the constant attack the Thor would shutdown 3 of the gates before he could mass there. I'm actually wondering why he wasted the bombardment on a stalker instead of the pylon powering 3 gateways.

Also, Immortal vs Thor? If he had Immortal he would be falling to the marines (no stalkers), not to mention Thor kills Immortal (just use bombardment). All that bonus damage and fancy shields are not really going to do you any good if you die in one hit. Its easy to say "why didn't he build XXX" when the answer is obviously because "he was building YYY" (which may not seem much but they killed that mass of marines; something zealots were failing at.

Awesome but obviously sloppy.
If toss had just backed off immediately and waited for another warp in round it would have been GG.

It was the patch the nerf the reaver... Boxer love to Shutlel+reaver and micro the shit out of his oponents, then he decide he was going to change and got Terran as it was the underdog XD

Asome game by LZ really nice to see the thor getting some use, they kinda suck...

Protoss could have walked 3 zealots into LZ's undefended main when he had like 7 zealots to 12 marines. Doesn't really seem like a viable strat with the way LZ went about it.

For some reason I really felt like Lz shouldn't have won that game after he got scouted. Of course I'm oblivious to SC2 so it's harder for me to tell if the P was defending well or not. I don't know that's just crazy that he could win after having his entire plan discovered.
