Nazgul said how impressive Bunny looked in his WCS games which lead me to think he had something up his sleeve. Two very solid additions, imo.

It's really bad that just being mediocre makes you the foreigner Terran hope. Still not sure why foreigners are so bad with the race.

For some reason I thought Hero left TL a while ago, but saw he's with them during IEM. Am I thinking of someone else or did he not leave them for a bit? Maybe I thought that when I saw the non-TL Hero.

Because it's mostly mechanics that make terrans good, you basically aim the hose spewing MMM at the opponent and hope it packs enough punch to knock him out. Zergs and protoss have late game states where they can feel invulnerable, Terran has that only when they are against 1 or 2 base protoss and zerg.

CJ herO perhaps ? But that guy has been winning tournaments left and right too. Or you are thinking of Nony and that guy makes me sad

Did you listen to Unfiltered when they talked about NonY with the Enders Game drama? I didn't know NonY was so widely known as being flakey and overall kind of a dumbass.

I'm not sure what can be attributed to his depression, but yeah, he is often kind of a dick. Sometimes when he speaks his mind, it can be eye opening, like the recent article about Daedalus point, but sometimes he makes Naniwa look like the most mannered player. Rarely listen to Unfiltered

They were basically saying how NonY is always the one guy who claims the admins never sent an invite when there are 100+ people who got successful invites. Basically always blaming everyone else or circumstances instead of ever taking the blame on his own. The Enders Game drama is basically NonY never once contacted a tournament admin to check-in. He didn't send a message, he wasn't responding on twitter and he wasn't responding via email. So they were going to replace him with Caliber. When they set up the lobby for the games NonY just joined off the admins basically saying "sup?" Then started accusing Destiny/Catz of purposefully not inviting him so they could get another Root member in the tournament.

I really like Unfiltered. I find it to be the best of the "podcast" shows. Better than meta at least where it is just a giant circlejerk. Thought Ret had some very good insights this last episode as well. Still think Destiny is a retard but he fills the role as the uninformed /r/starcraft person who at least asks the questions the subreddit parrots to get answered by more intelligent people.

I'm playing like shit today, sending my whole army to defend against the incoming medivac with 4 hellions, then I act surprised when another 4 show up at my natural. Losing to proxy stargate: "Gee, he's not making any units and I don't see third pylon, he must be fast expanding on Habitation". Failing to scout spire despite going phoenixes and picking off 10 drones.

At least made a Master terran quit after I sniped the SCV building a depo in his wall with a scouting probe :p

I know he plays in WCS on March 5th. Unsure if there are any tournaments he'll play in before then. Although, why do you want to watch him play? So you can see some mediocre protoss beat him with ease? :p haha

Because Taeja still has probably the best TvP in the world and I want to see what he comes up with, because I have rarely seen anyone else control lategame battles as well as him.

I'd argue Polt has better TvP. At least recently. He has been the only Terran to show in the current metagame a firm understanding of how to decompose a Protoss army. That is not to say it's unbeatable. But he wins via superior map control and vision. So observers may counter his style. It isn't shocking this is pretty much "Polt's game" because his TvZ builds are very similar where they emphasize taking over the map.

This is still something we don't see that much, I swear Rain is the only protoss who builds a lot of observers and basically plays with Map hacks the majority of the time. Wasn't there a game where Rain built like 60+ observers, I swear there was.

6+ ? Yes. 1/3 of supply cap ? Unless the terran was floating away his base that would be fucking retarded

He may be saying over the course of the game because they were getting sniped. 60 still sounds insanely high.
