After a certain event in GSL, I have notice alot more tank usage in TvP. It seems that terran has come to learn that to fight in the late game, maybe tank is their only solution.
Also in TvT, i notice a big shift of banshee opening, which was insanely popular in the past few month, into 1 rax FE. Good thing i was ahead of the trend and I started 1rax FE way before banshee became the "thang." It make sense though, most terran can not be too aggressively early until a certain upgrade so they cant really do anything much. Such as stim or seige tech, which give you alot of time to bunker up and prepare seige yourself and your safe. All you really need to survive is probably 1 or 2 the most and quick seige and your FE is safe.
TvZ, it seems marine tank is the new thing now.
Glad to see that tank are starting to be appreciated now lol.

What are your thoughts about the Tester vs Mvp game?

Masters League only available in 1v1 right? Blizzard have any reason for not implement it to team leagues and ladders?
I think because Master League was implemented for the top 1v1 players for competition, and since 2v2/3v3/4v4 aren't really competitive, they won't implement it.

Been thinking about switching races more and more. I've only played Zerg since Brood War and never have touched the other races.

MVP reacts well to Testers decisions? We all know they weren't great games, but MVP outplayed tester, so thats about all there is to say

The games were pretty typical TvX these days. One base SCV all-in. Even an amazing macro player like MVP has no need to take the game into the late stages when he can simply end it right from the start with a single powerful push. I really hope Blizzard does something about this, its just terrible for everybody.

I would love to change my name back from JinX to Kolvacs T.T

They did a while back , SCVs had more life than all other workers . So all in worker attacks happend alot more often and for off races it was nearly impossiable to counter. Any race can all in with workers if they choose to and have the same affect.

IdrA recently said the NaDa has the potential to be the best but he is just playing like he doesn't give a shit/barely practicing etc.. What are your thoughts on this TL?

In a PvT situation, what is the best way to deal with the terrans early pressure with marauders. It seems every time the poke into my base the zealots can't catch them and the stalkers just get owned. Would I require an early forge to protect my probes from there ultimate death?

Just something I wanted to bring up that has been bothering me. It's pretty hard to find reliable, up to date build orders, and variety. The liquipedia is pretty scarce. I realize the game is new and all but there are a few matchups I've really been struggling with and it would be really nice to be able to find 2 or 3 standard safe solid builds with guidelines for reactions to what you scout. Any chance some of you masters or pros could put some of your favorite builds in there? I have 1 or 2 that I really like in pvz and tvz but I'm pretty lost in the mirror matchups and PvT. I'm also hesitant to contribute my builds because I'm not at a level of play where I can really call something viable or not.

You need to mix some sentries.
Use the force field in your ramp to halt the attack, or split to his army.
Early game as protoss is the hardest stage of the game :/

Standard build orders are an illusion. It took very long for standard build orders to develop in BW, and even then, they actually aren't used as common as you may think in pro games.
This applies to SC2 also, the pros don't do standard build orders. Yeah there are some, but they usually only extend up to at most 30 food and then the player decides to do whatever he/she wants. Only, in SC2, there hasn't been a long time for safe adaptable build orders to be created to be considered standard.
The better thing to learn is strategies. Things that you want to accomplish in each stage of the game. When strategies work, that's when you begin to work out timings and what not. Strategy creation and understanding of timings is much better and easier (IMO) to learn, because you do what you want to do, and shape it based on your style of play, not some guy who has better macro/micro than you. Of course, that isn't to say that you shouldn't take other people's build orders, but when you do it shouldn't taken food for food, the strategy should be taken out of it and understood, then perhaps a better build order or better use of the build order may result.
