apm -.- action per minute

means against ultra and broodlord these normal units only 25 dmg. not so effective lo. only spell casters have psionic armour. means 50 dmg against HT and infestor.

in case you were not aware, protoss is ripping everyone's ass hardcore in GSL.

right now at this moment, 4 protoss is in gsl round of 8. the highest of all race.

immortal range buff blend a bit too well with forcefield and the cheap upgrade cost make late game protoss ball reach earlier.

well the state of game was nvr balanced....last time terran OP, now protoss OP...owh well, now can only wait for someone to revolutionize TvP like how creatorprime did with the double forge (post upgrade buff) build.

still waiting for the day mech tvp become mainstream.

the differenceof the range upgrade is it will be more beginner friendly to micro pheonix against mutalisk. right now the range diff is only 1, if muta ball is big enuf, once turn back can 1 shot pheonix. if the range is 2, protoss user can have more reaction time. so it makes thing easier for majority. but definitely f*** things up in pro level play..in the hand of capable micro, if muta got caught by phoenix, its harder to run away...

true story.

Added on February 12, 2012, 6:19 pmi stucked in silver for a long time too when i started playing and was very frustrated. that time, i cant really tell whats the difference between me and better players and thought i deserved better. but dont fear, keep on practice in ladder, you need to understand what you are doing more. mimic pros and try to win each and every game, dont be stubborn, learn from the better player (pros) and think why they do so. dont follow blindly, if you think you wound do A, but the pro did B in the replay. pause and think why. think why they did these decisions. since you say your mechanics is desireble, im sure you can improve when you 'get to know' the secret in the game.

remain dmg but 25 dmg reduction against massive plox. when is this patch coming into play? T.T

i rmb there was a stupid nerf on infestor that got took back right away b4 the patch started. was it fungal cant attacck air or what?

im calling a MVP team final.

but seriously i was covering my face and shouting when i saw parting miss the FF. LIKE SERIOUSLY T.T exactly same as genius vs mkp when genius won him.

however, i think its safe to call this season's gsl to be the best of all. the competition and skill level is crazy @.@ like suddenly everyone is in super saiyan mode. everyone in code S could have been a gsl champion if it was half a year ago. (or even 3 months ago, rmb when we called leenock vs jjakji best tvz, top vs mvp best tvt.....)

i think its very well possible for any 4 combination man

drg has a very good chance. his untouchable zvt can bring him to the finals against the winner of alive and genius. genius's late game pvt is damn good but i feel alive will have something prepare for him. just like how he fking took out MMA with amazing strategies. if alive wins, DRG's chance of getting GSL champion is damn high, like nestea vs inca, mc vs july that kind of high. but if its genius again......genius had won DRG in round of 32 this season 2-0.......its going to be funny and i would put my bet on the cunning genius if its an MVP final.

its not played yet, even semi final is not played yet.

this patch will be online on 21 feb for NA server and 27 feb for SEA

as a terran? marauder vikings.

if siege tank viking vs siege tank viking, just add raven for pdd, so much diff. but i personally dont like to clash playstyle, so boring and you cant exploit timings.

well, what you need to do is catch the tanks unsiege. if their tanks are sieged, they can nvr move in to kill you right? if they siege half unsiege half to crawl in, their fire power will still be reduced by half, if you are 200/200 you still can go in. then you replenish your marauder ball faster than his tank ball and you can win. and your upgrades should be faster too because marauders are cheap on gas and can easily mass produce compare to tanks.

but then this is the stupid way la. you can still do it tho.

the smarter way is hide a lot of vikings, then suddenly kill all his vikings with your viking ball. then use medivac to drop your marauder on top of his siege tank and win easily.

i actually think instead of going tank viking vs tank viking, lower league players should go bio vs mech.... i dno but i feel in mech vs mech, seriously the better player wins. thats like fact in sc2. bane ling vs bane ling, the btr player wins. 4gate vs 4 gate and alot more...thats why i mentioned earlier i prefer not to have a clash of style in my games cuz im a noob hehe.

when playing diff style, you can exploit opponents weakness and try to hide your own....more mind game maybe, but comeback will be possible when you exploit the right timing. but these requires experience as well.

and playing mech vs bio is like up hill battle seriously. your opponent will constantly trade with you, can nvr move out of base, once move out, 4 dropship behind base, kena flank, trade army at watch tower, then when you settle down and move in again, his bio is 200/200 again because he got 6 base in taldarim and you have 3 only.

nuke range < tank range. opponent just need to scan and tank will kill the ghost......well, yeah slayers boxer could have pulled it off.......

and theres no such thing as viking + siege tank counters everything......if so, everyone will just use that 1 strat right?


i could prove you otherwise any day of the week. marauders are good against tank.

for HSM, actually PDD are very good as well. they absorb f***load of shots.

lol i just 4 gate the shit out of pvp
