Your vote: 4 gate push an all in?

(Vote): Yes
(Vote): No


There have been some threads about all ins, however, it seems in the community that there seems to be a broad range of what players deem an all in. The definition on Liquidpedia is: A type of attack where the player commits everything in an attack, thus forgoing any long-term strategy from that point. Thus I ask, is a 4 gate contain, while expanding considered an all in (PvP)? I would say no, as the strategy I use in the linked replay allows a fluid transition into either a robo, or stargate tech, along with the added benefit for a second base. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Nice graffiti! I was wondering if you would do more? Like say, Casting Archon?

A question that didn't warrant a new topic:

Does anyone know if the GSL Up/Down matches will be streamed tonight? And if so will it be only the Korean stream?

I vaguely remember Tastosis saying that they will be casting the up/down matches but I'm not too sure...

It does seem to be scheduled on the GomTV Website though.
http://www.gomtv.net/2011gslsponsors1/schedule/



BTW, does anyone have any good replays on a good 2 Rax FE build against Protoss in the most recent patch? I'm doing okay with the build, but I still don't know how to play the match-up properly (when to attack/harass/add more production facilities/etc...)

Question that I wouldn't dare to put into a thread-title....anyone active at US battle.net-forums heard anything about "the" ladder-reset? I'm just being curious, if we are talking about weeks or months, etc.

Anyone getting sick of all the TvTs in the top level of GSL. Feels like I been only watching one matchup for the past 3 game nights.

Dont you guys think Team Incredible Miracle should try to pick up MC / Genius, because they lack one ImbaToss to complete the triangle of domination.

Additionally, isn't it necessary to somehow patch Protoss in a way that PvP stops being 4 gate only, as its a very very good choice vs Non-4gaters and the best choice to defend against 4gate is 4gate (oh my).

The counter to dragoon is dragoon!
In all seriousness, it is a little depressing seeing so many PvP's all boil down to stalkers micro'ing against eachother (not as fun as baneling v baneling micro)

I am indeed! But I guess its inevitable when they're so statistically overrepresented. I like (without justification) to qq as much as the next guy, but wow is are there a lot of terrans in high end SC2 play.

I don't mind, we haven't seen a Terran win the GLS yet, so it's kinda nice seeing high level Terran at it's finest. I don't play T but I still can't wait to see it!

Why isn't Phoenix/DT against Zerg used at all? I'd think it would work much better than DT/Sair in Broodwar.
Zerg detection is much harder to come by than in Broodwar, Phoenix are better harassers than Corsairs ever were, and there are no Scourge to worry about.
DTs are a bit harder to tech to than in BW, but that can't be the sole reason, right?

Because it is too gas intensive to be viable and still have a strong enough army to compete.
Works pretty well in PPvZZ though, lol.

EDIT::

I heard iNcontrol talk about Kiwikaki using some kind of one base dt void ray strategy, anyone know about this?

its very situational, 4gate can be all in a lot of times, other times its not. it depends on what your left with after the fighting is done and how much damage youve done to your opponent.

We have seen some pretty amazing TvTs

Jinro vs Ensnare
Boxer vs Hyperdub

Jinro vs MKP

There were some pretty awesome games in there.. it is probably the best mirror match up; imagine watching a bunch of ZvZs or PvPs.. i'd die

Agree, I've lately been experimenting with a 4gate opening into expo in PvZ. What I do is that i probe up, and have 2 gas, and while slowly engaging him, and making him produce units i expo at around 50 food, and retreat. works good.

Here's what I think about all-ins: Unless you're bringing all your workers for the attack - IT'S NOT FUCKING ALL-IN, stop using the phrase just coz it sounds cool when Phil Ivey says it.

4gate is only all-inish if you cut a LOT of probes to get it extra fast.
