    Sjow is seriously impressing me here. I did not think he would be able to beat WhiteRa.

    That medivac play is damn good. It's like he's a Zerg, poking around constantly at weak points in your base when your dudes aren't there. Except instead of being done with giant bat dragons it's a bunch of sexy nurse ladies.

    calling anything tier anything is stupid, starcraft 2 doesn't have tiers

    you can call things low tech and high tech but trying to define tiers is stupid

    its easier as Zerg as they do have 3 distinct levels of upgrades, but for the other races its just all over the place

    I suppose, but Colossi are still end of tree, late tech units, not mid tech units.

    I will throw you on the land and hurl you on the open field. I will let all the birds of the air settle on you and all the beasts of the earth gorge themselves on you. I will spread your flesh on the mountains and fill the valleys with your remains. I will drench the land with your flowing blood all the way to the mountains, and the ravines will be filled with your flesh. - Ezekiel 32: 4-6

    That was a really lame way to win.

    Although WhiteRa didn't respond appropriately =/

    The name is explained in most tournaments, Day[9] mentions it all the time too: Duckload is his sponsor.

    Why is it every time I actually watch a game with someone I want to win they get completely destroyed.

    The fact that, therefore, a player cam is just kind of stupid?

    it makes sense that sjow had to though, he lost half of his scv count defending that 4gate so it was either all in and try to get a win or wait it out and have less of a chance as the game goes on

    3 rax is stonger than 4 gate and allows expanding behind it. Now watch thread explode with terrans explaining how I should get creative and do 1 base templar and/or carrier rushes.

    Aaand finished Marineking vs Jinro.
    Probably won't bother watching finals live, TvTs are getting pretty fucking trite atm. But it's fine, terran players are just better than everyone else, amirite.

    Mostly agreed, Code A finals weren't too bad, although that's all I watched out of Code A.

    Anybody know if the up/down matches aren't being streamed by Gom? I just went to see how long till they start and it says 5 days till live, but I think the first up/down match is in like, 8 or 9 hours or something.

    The back door makes it difficult for terran to defend their natural well. Depending on who you ask, it also makes defending the zerg and protoss natural against 4/6 gate timings and roach burrow timings, respectively.

    I've heard people say the backdoor makes it zerg favored -_- ... Maybe I just don't get it, but wouldn't terran have the easiest time defending the rocks and zerg have by far the hardest time? Shit. Just plop down a marine or 2 and lings can't touch your rocks. Those bad boys aren't getting broken without roaches or hydras, and lets be honest, both suck against terran. So terran is 100% safe from zerg backdoors. Zerg, on the other hand, is pretty boned. It's not like they can deter units away without running all the way around out of their natural. ZvP is a little different as roaches and hydras are actually decent in this match up. But lings alone still do jack shit. Rock breakage is maybe even.

    The backdoor rocks are very hard for anyone to defend.

    Kind of lame when the first person to be aggressive usually wins. Even moreso than usual.

    Super rare to see any interesting macro games, and it's very hard to take and hold a third base.
