All the best to him! Even though I hardly believe he will have that much more success with toss ^_^

Oh, yeah, (let me rephrase this) it's really hard for the other races to understand that .

Couldn't help it.

Switching after all this time not good to be honest.Whenever i have seen him play his scouting is poor and his APM is just way to low. Why doesn't he work on those two aspects of his game rather than do a flavour of the month switch. What happens if mech is buffed further somewhere down the line which is a lower APM form of play does he switch back to Terran?

So a player who farmed St.Life at Dreamhack (we all know what was the reason) now decided to switch an other race which is probably the strongest atm. Patchplayer confirmed.

You probably forgot that colossi are a protoss unit,


Colossi as a unit are extremely fragile. Unsupported, or poorly microed they can easily be butchered. The other main thing with toss is you usually only get one shot at fighting. If your main force dies mid-late game you lose 99% of the time. The protoss army has tremendous damage output, and as such can feel oppressive when well used, but if I do just A-Move as many suggest I can, I'll get butchered and lose the game directly after.


350hp, 2.25 speed, 9 range, ability to walk on cliffs. Yeah, that must be extremely fragile. Yeah they can be easily butchered by flying units, cause they cant shoot them. There are a ton of units like this that cant shoot air, but we dont call them extremely fragile. Losing a main army as toss, its pretty impossible. Forcefields, recall, time warp you know. Even if you lose it, then you probably lost the game earlier cause of other reasons.

Satiini tried to change to protoss. He even did 50€ bet with Welmu that he will win Welmu in PvT ( Satiini plays protoss, welmu plays terran)

Welmu won :D

Yeah protoss players hate pvp, cause they dont have the natural advantage like vs the other races. As a spectator the pvp is looking good now. Im sure that is much better than was it in the WoL.

I have never understood why people hate PvP?
Since I started playing, PvP has always been my strongest matchup. I know everything there can happen, there is no imbalances(:D), it's just so simply. Immortal<stalker, zealot>immortal, voidray>stalker...etc..

elfi and Welmu also love PvP and they are without question one of the best foreign PvP players. elfi might be the best.

As far as playing, it's goddamn annoying to play PvP. Tons of BO losses; HotS didn't change much in that regard.

Don't play so greedy and scout, easy.
