Guys, expect some delays on the VODs from SKT vs Stars. As those who stuck around after the rebroadcast will know, I suffered a power outage (literally) at my apartment towards the end of the stream, so it looks like the metadata in the recording got messed up. This means I can't split the VOD using my normal method, so I think I might have to do it from the recording on twitch. Thanks for your patience.

You can always watch the broadcasts @ twich.tv - http://www.twitch.tv/saylesc/b/309727783 ([SPL] Feb 25 Rebroadcast)
I usually do that instead of waiting for the uploads.

Yes, there's even some laddering before that, the broadcast itself starts at around the 36th minute.

Thank you so much Sayle! Great casts, it makes watching proleague so much more entertaining.

But I have noticed that on several casts you have been confused at scouting patterns in TvP. Scouting the close positions first is entirely to stop 12 Nex builds. Cross positions are too far away to bunker rush and if you scout the other close position last, its too late to bunker rush. So this way, 12Nex only works 1/3 of the time (cross positions) instead of 2/3 of the time. I believe Flash was the first one to start doing this, 1 or 2 seasons ago.

That doesn't make much sense to me. If you scout a close position first then scout cross map and see a 12nex, your bunker rush would arrive at exactly the same time as if you had scouted normally and saw him in cross positions. In the first case, you have the time it takes for the scv to scout a close position (1x short), the time it takes for it to go cross map (1x long), and the time it takes for you to bunker rush him in close positions (1x short). In the second case, you have the time it takes for your scv to scout a close position (1x short), the time it takes for the scv to continue to the cross map position (1x short), and the time it takes you to bunker rush cross map (1x long). Both times are 2x short + 1x long so your initial rush of scvs and 2-3 marines arrives exactly the same time in both cases. The only difference is that the reinforcement route is slightly longer, but this will only affect your 3rd/4th marine and to a lesser extent your vulture (since vultures are pretty quick even without an upgrade, I'm pretty sure the difference in positions only delays your vulture by like 5-6 secs max). It's possible that these few seconds are what makes the difference, but I feel like the difference is marginal. If you're really concerned about 12nex (on Jade for example), I think you'd just do a double scout to close positions as we've seen a couple of times already.

Edit: I suppose another benefit of doing the close then cross map scout is that you can see proxy gates as well, but I think by that time the first zealot would be (almost) at your base already.

Hi Sayle! Thank you very much for it! Watching this now again, set 5 is so interesting to watch, because it was a very cool game indeed, and nice to see a professional commentary on it (I mean a professional commentary that I can understand :D ).
