Doesn't matter how many infestors he faced. He literally stacked his ravens and surprise, half of them died to a fungal. Jjakji on the other hand deflected Brood Lord|Infestor with well spread vikings. A single fungal could barely hit two at once. Granted, full admission- Monster played poorly. That however does not discredit Jjakjis solid play in the least. You can say whatever you want but Bomber did everything he could not to win against infestors. He forgot seeker missile, only remembering it after producing 10 ravens, he refused to use ghosts, he refused to turret and tank his base and continue to hunt overlords with vikings to prevent drops, he sent his bio in piecemeal so 2-3 infestors could fungal kill them easily, he didn't build tanks, he massed battlecruisers then stacked them close enough for fungals, he used battlecruisers all by themselves instead of supporting them, he left no defense in his main and let a single infestor repeatedly spew ITs for over ten minutes, he made banshees against pure infestor, he only dropped twice in the entire game, he let all his medivacs be fungaled. fuck. ghosts are good units. that was just off the top of my head. infestors didn't conspire against Bomber to beat him. Bomber beat himself. Over and over And over. | ||

Bomber beat himself. Over and over And over. no. u cant afford tanks and ravens for example. u simply dont understand what he did and why he did it. its depressing to read. tvz i snot a fair fight, everybody knows it. yea he could have done a better job microing, but do u realise the reason ravens clumped is that they do that when moving, and u cant know when u will meet infestors ? its an example, but basically what bomber did was theorically correct, it takes unbelievable mechanics to pull it off, whereas zerg only needs to hit fungals, and negate seekers missiles. thats it. and he didnt get ghosts because they are useless vs everything but infestors, and u have to work with a limited amount of ressource. hell most likely try to incorporate few ghosts from now on, but i dont think u have any idea how hard it is to do what bomber already did compared to what freaky had to do. and yea at the end he lost because infestors counter every terran unit get over it, ppl were saying that of ghosts, they did get nerfed. | ||

But because of the terran race's traits in the late game there is alot of excess gas, so I can only choose to make ravens. Terrans playing into the late game can only use ravens. There's the Pro answer to the "Just make a Raven" enthusiasts. Perhaps it's time to make Ghosts 100/175. | ||

Bomber beat himself. Over and over And over. How can you even compare the ridiculous amount of infestors Freaky had to the 3-4(?) Monster had? Bomber forgetting HSM had no real impact on the game, he didn't really stack his bcs, building 0-0 tanks wouldn't have helped, etc. It's not like freaky played even close to perfect, yet you only pointed out Bomber's mistakes, really, just no^. | ||

Yeah, I dunno why ghosts are 200/100 (if I recall right) almost every tvp/tvz and hell even tvt you see 1k>3K gas on the terran side, they need tech units (like templar/infestor) to drop more gas in than money. I think going back to the old model would be more efficent, hell 75/150 would be fine imo. EDIT: plus it would be nice to have the full dmg back, and have it resorted to 25 vs massive units, because now they're useless in so many diverse situations (QXC talked about this)... Hitting scvs 2 at a time, bit of a pissssss off haha, not that that happens to often. | ||

How can you assume that ? He even said in the interview that he should have builded some.... And in this particular game, there wasn't the threat of other units for a long time... Ghosts aren't as good as they used to be vs zerg, but they are still decent. Zerg have the tendency now to bring some queen with their push to transfuse the bls, I would really like to see a terran try to snipe or EMP the queens with some ghosts, because the zerg won't have more than 4-5 queen so you can really do the job with 1-2 EMP. | ||
