Is that DT build from the final game possible? It feels like every time I see it the Terran just doesnt care, moves out, and wins because the protoss just doesnt have enough stuff.

I'm starting to think Artosis is a wizard who got in deep with the sharks and decided this was the best way to pay off his debts.

All kidding aside, congratulations to Maru and thanks for the write up.


i rly think artosis should start bet money on the guys he predict to lose ^^

Of course it's possible, Rain just didn't execute it good (letting both DTs die to a scan). He still could have harassed the fuck out of Maru's main and even if he wasn't picking off tons of workers, at least keeping Maru from mining off that one base and also trying to pick off tech structures/depots/etc.

It would have bought him time, which is what Rain needed. Unfortunately he only killed 3-4 SCVs and didn't do much at all.

Maru was already moving out when the DT's came, wasnt he? And he didnt bother to turn around and wouldnt have needed to anyway. We saw something similar in Ruin vs Keen on Anaconda. Keen just attacked and won while he lifted buildings.

I remember sometime around tsl4, I was looking at maru like "this kid is amazing, how has he not broken out yet" and even though it took a while, now is his time to shine. I just hope his teammate creator can live up to potential too and not just be a one hit wonder.

They are not kinda combined tough. They are still their own tournament with just the WCS tag pressed on. They both still got their own format and rules.

format is overall the same (minor changes) and players qualified for one of the tournaments are the players qualified for code A, Up&Down, code S from the other tournament.

no it's not you, the title of this thread is clearly inappropriate. I had it spoiled for myself... before i saw the title of this thread the series was 2-2 tied up, at least as far as i knew.

rain threw game 5 away. He didn't need to attack there. Maru wasn't playing greedy at all IMO. IMO, he did the correct build for the map. Rain saw it and thought he was going to break maru and win the game, but it was bad judgement IMO because I see no reason why terran shouldn't be able to hold off an immortal sentry all in on the map after taking a 3rd CC. Star gate is the only thing that will give that build trouble on that map IMO.

If you haven't watched the OSL finals, you really shouldn't be visiting Team Liquid. That's like looking at the back page of the paper the day after the world cup (or after the superbowl if you're in the US).

Isn't it scary to think how intense Artosis' curse is becoming? He even managed to work out the score this time.

There is a way to prevent that, don't go on Teamliquid when you still need to watch a big match, its really not that hard.

But there's still no reason not to have the thread title in spoilers.

Except the internet is a little more customizable than newspapers. As I type this post I see two spoiler brackets on the left side of my screen.
