Rain had 4 immortals coming. If Creator came down just 3-4 seconds later, Creator would have been annhilated

BW the multi prong harrass rewards you. Man, hero should have never lost that game. Although Sen got harassed out of his ass, he actually managed to keep a 20 supply lead the whole time, aka, heout-macroed Hero. ==> Macro>Micro, exacly what a RTS is supposed to be like. No RTS is supposed to be Macro>Micro. It's supposed to be a balance of the two. If it's Macro>micro its probably a terrible RTS. It might as well be Sim City. Alright, I concur with your point, but Hero apparently did not quite balance between micro and macro, which is why he was behind in supply. The ideal case would be like the Drg vs Rain OSL series where Rain managed to multitask harassing while maintain a supply lead.
Some people just don't understand what's the different between good harass and bad harass. Godd harass will make u ahead because you cripple him while macroing at home.

QFT. I can't believe this guy.

If it remained hidden it could be good. Also, he should turn the warp prism into flower mode and ferry there. much faster and safer IMO

I feel he should have lifted Rain's immortals first instead of the sentries...he waited too long to go up the ramp as well.

Great decision making, great crisis management, sick unit control... Rain is such a talented player.

Creator vs Rain
Game 2 - Ohana
Standard openings from teh two protosses with small variations in gas-timings and creator with the slightly earlier core. Creator's choice of tech was air, while Rain chose blink. While creaotr hid three phoenix, Rain moved in for a 7minute blink timing at creatos natural. With Creator falling back, Rain warped in sentries and guarded the ramp between the main and natural of Creator. Creator started robo and with his first immortal tried to move down to his natural. Though Rain inititally seemed occupied elsewhere, a last second forcefield cut off the immortal on the low ground and creator was still trapped.
As Rain expanded, creator restarted his air-production and a warp-prism. Creators attempt at regaining his natural proved unsuccesful as the warp-prism was killed off. Finally Creator broke through, as the energy of the sentries of Rain ran out and fighting commenced. Though Rain looked to be in great condition, his army was split in two and both parts were destroyed by Creator in turn. Still far behind in economy, Creator barreled for the natural of Rain, where an epic fight resulted in Rain retreating to his main with three blink stalkers and a sentry. Creator, out of resources in his main, desperatly tried breaking up the ramp, but as the sentry cut off two stalkers of Creator, Rain could finally finish what he had started 15 minuted earlier.
Rain almost threw an unlosable game, but showed great micro and composure to win with the slightest margin, 1:1

I think it was to harrass or maybe deny the nat? i am not sure but i think it was a bad decision... Rain would just warp in 3 stalkers at home and kill it.

Damn. This match is a $24k/$32k match. HUGE payout if you advance here...

Sen is an accomplished player and that's that. Again if it makes you feel better - an accomplished player that accomplished jackshit for an entire year. Why are you so stupid? You do realize that Sen does play in his taiwan league right? He hasn't played in any major tournaments this year that I can think of except maybe NASL (can't remember). I don't get you rhate of sen, but learn what you are talking about before spouting stupidity. P.S. Give credit also Sen outplayed Hero in game 5, no ifs ands or butts about it. He played it good and hero made mistakes and lost. Come on don't be so mad. Taiwanese leagues are about as impressive as the eps we have here and nobody would claim it being a huge deal winning it.

Sen outplayed HerO badly that game, even if not for Sen playing well, HerO played badly.
Whoranzone, regardless if Sen is a silver league player, or 17 time GSL Cose S champion. HerO played bad. Fucking admit it.

I wish they had Wolf and Khaldor simultaneously casting on another stream.

maybe he wanted to counterattack with voidray plus all his phoenix, and that would be enough to lift an entire-warp in and kill them off and snowball out of control like it would in pvz?
i dunno, because i've never seen that before in pvp
