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. | ||

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. | ||

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

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... | ||

and with lzgamers BO the thor is finished at 7:07 gametime. you can have 2 immortals at that time without sacrificing too many zeals/stalkers. and sid would have had no problem building a robo-facility. but he over adjusted when he saw the proxy rax with reactor and built 2 more gates instead (for a total of 5). | ||

He could have done a number of things, like just waiting for a bigger army and sniping SCVs first or just move to LZ's main and kill him faster than a single Thor. You should also notice that Thor almost died at the very start (it was down to 50 HP I believe), so it was luck based. But a really awesome game nevertheless | ||

Well, the 2 thors arrive at about 5:35 + walking time, so on Steppes of War it's about 6:20 or so.. with 3 and 4 thors at about 7:20 and 7:40.. In any sane protoss build they would have 2 immortals max. I also worked out an insane out of control unsafe protoss build that goes straight immortal -- with that build they would have 6 or 7 by the time the thors got there >:D | ||

Sid didn't play it out very well though and I'm sure he's kicking himself for losing that game in that way. Even with the game progressing to the contain in Sid's base (though it shouldn't really have happened), Sid could have easily warped his gateway units to the back of the base and massed units enough to take the Thor out, or at least not have warped his units within range of the Thor. | ||

Had he killed SCVs it would have been harder for Lz to keep the Thor alive in the toss base. I mean warp in 2 rounds of units away from the Thor range, you can even let him kill one gateway and then move in. Better to take that chance then to let the thor kill 2 out of 3 units before they can even fire or hit the thor. | ||

I'll get a replay up. 3-0 with this build so far. Although, I've changed a little bit so that this build comes up as one big timing push. (I suck btw). Although this does stop 2 starport banshees. Hopefully this will move the metagame along so I don't have to deal with annoying ass banshees. http://www.mediafire.com/?jz45tmz2ytt http://www.mediafire.com/?mwzwmgmmjmm oh and i realize the players i were up against weren't too good. i just wanted to finish my placements and wanted to test out a more efficient build. any thoughts? Keep at it, and we'll see if Thor pushes need a nerf. It sounds ridiculous, doesn't it? | ||
