 sOs v.  jjakjiArtosis talking about how this changes everything! Other casters are all laughing about how NO ONE expected viable Carriers... InControl says he was wrong about Carriers being "worthless" That 3 Stargate +3 upgrade Carrier Fleet switch with JUST ENOUGH resources to remax... I welcome this confident playstyle, s0s is so brilliant with these exciting curveball builds! The best part is it only worked in a very certain situation and he sensed it! Game 2 here: | ||

It's sad to see units from any race unused, or called "bronze tactics". I wish that Battlecruisers and Carriers both returned to competitions. s0s had masterful use of the carrier because of upgrades and late game timing, that's worth respect - no matter your race. | ||

The difference of BC and Carrier is that toss already has a zillion options and having another lategame unit isn't cool. I wish terrans had t3. Also simply building a unit isn't smart nor its considered new meta. It just shows that every protoss gas unit has perfect synergy. | ||

C'mon guys, don't hate on the race! Admit that the players are the largest of SO many factors into who wins. All races have their overpowered nonsense. All races are OP and it's all about timings of greed / punishment. | ||

This is team liquid, carriers are OP and need to be nerfed!  Now let's discuss balance for 5 pages instead of crediting sOs. Ontopic: I think it's one of those once upon a time builds that work if you mindgame your opponent enough and can hide it long enough. Don't expect him to use that again this wcs season. | ||

I heard InControl say he was wrong about carriers being "totally worthless", I bet a lot of people feel that way. It's always nice to see players shaking up expectations, that's why s0s has been my favorite since s1 2013 wcs | ||

Holy buckets! Life v Taeja game 1 was super exciting also. Clutch Turret repair, those banelings, and a wild low supply late game...today has been awesome. I'll be sure to update the OP later. | ||

Yep. It's a nice build for catching an opponent off-guard. It's not going to become standard or common by any means. We've seen dozens of similar builds from every race that are used to take a game off of someone in a series. These type of games are always enjoyable. | ||
