good hit on the banes tho

What killed the medivacs?

widowmine splash

spite

im now convinced silver/gold zergs are better than plat/diamond. they just come from left field with the dumbest build, but zerg is soooo easyyyy it works. wish i played this in the good terran days.

some nerdy ass korean dude clapping after he won a video game tilts you? that's so weird

he could prob get any korean girl he wants tho

So this is the SC2 version of "I need to move up to where they respect my raises"

I played a silver Z last night where he was on 1 base forever, I scouted some roaches peeking out from his ramp, so I went up to a few spines and lots of lings, don't totally saturate my natural yet but eventually I have so much defense and the attack hasn't come yet so I'm like w/e and start droning and teching again. 5-6 spines, two queens with full energy, bunches o lings.

Suddenly about 15-20 roaches w/ burrow movement pop up in my main and snipe down my pool.

[ ] this happened because playing zergs with bad builds is really hard
[x] this happened because I'm bad

I was tilted by my last couple games tonight so I did this on my smurf to some poor bronze kid

Thinking that the context matters? That's so weird!

Why does it matter that its a Korean who plays video games for a living? I find it strange that you have that attitude whilst being an avid player yourself.

If it was a golfer is it any different? A tennis player? A chess player? I bet if you saw an athlete doing this you would think "Douche!". But because he's a "nerdy ass Korean" it doesn't matter?

I think clapping yourself is obnoxious and douchey. It is particularly immodest and Taeja doesn't exactly have the cocky swagger of a Usain Bolt which let's him get away with it.

Tiger fist-pumping is one of my favorite things in sports

My avatar is a Nebraska player "throwing the bones" to celebrate a sack

You don't see the difference between a fist pump and clapping yourself ORLY?

Really don't get it. He won. He's clapping. He isn't taunting his opponent or anything like that.

I appreciate you taking the time to do this. I know you didn't enjoy it a lot.

Is there some place you can get vods for the WCS season finals without getting spoiled about the results of the early round matches? I'm deathly afraid to go to TL or twitch or blizzard or anywhere.

I've been watching the full broadcasts on the WCS America twitch page since I keep waking up after it starts. Here are links:

having played multiple sports my entire life and being friends with a bunch of nerdy kids, i can safely say celebrations on a whole are entirely under-done. i wasn't very "shy" so to speak, so in soccer (mostly), goals were met with a variety of slides, airplanes, feet on fire, etc.

cant remember 100%, but i wouldnt be surprised at all if people in sports clap after they score a goal, going back to their half. so i say gogo taeja, keens is so funny just cause he looks so **** happy at w.e it was he just did, as if it was the goat play. parting does it pretty well too

goofyballer 4 mod!

best way to approach tvp? hate that matchup soooo badly

pull scvs and hope they didn't chrono storm

yeah thats kinda my std..

also been doing a withered 111, 2 rax + stim, go with 2-3 tanks/medivacs. cant deny obs when i need mules tho. works like 50%, usually double expo behind if it doesnt work; pull scvs later. so far the followup is 1/2 (yeah i hate laddering) and game i won he had templar out and i could see him microing them to the back so hard i assumed storm was so close (it was) but he lost too much by then.

gonna go back to playing normal opens next time, altho it seems like every game i fast expand they end up proxy stargate/4gate which is pretty tough to hold anyway.

wish i could just tvt every ladder game. gold macro is soooo bad. usually find myself 4base to 2, maxxed vs like 120 and it goes from there

this is off of one base? seems like it would just get crushed by immortal+gateway+mothership core

yeah and it does usually if they scout. transition prob only works because they dont just counter immediately. but it also doesn't lose to allins, which are fairly frequent.

i struggle to find a timing to go midgame, which is obv the trouble. apm/control is no where near enough to have ghosts be a feasible counter to the ultimate army.

finding out my widow mine tvz is also really bad, but that'll be easier to fix than tvp..

marine tank skillz only thing keeping me from schu? =O

Haha, just played some tard Protoss who did the most obvious I'm-gonna-pretend-to-block-your-hatch-but-not-really-try cannon rush. He thought he had this super sekret way of using the gases or w/e to pylon block me in my base on Frost, but obv when he didn't try to block and scouted forge first I knew what was up and got drones down to block and lings out to kill his cannons. He snap left when it failed. Feels so good to win vs tards like that.
