i was pleasantly surprised that they only charge for the petrean when gsl is active instead of year round best 10$ a month I could spend I think

Please credit the music you use so we know what that bangin beat is. :(

[@anthonyalfieri4154]

ByuN probably didn’t read the patch notes to see that 2-2 and 3-3 are cheaper along with the cheaper armory

[@tophm2634]

if Byun doesn't make it in Starcraft he can always become a kdrama star

[@ArtemisShanks]

knowing that koreans believe in ghosts makes me feel better about half of my country believing angels are real.

[@NO-gc2mf]

It was nice to look at these kids become mans

[@bruno1554]

What? Protoss was not supposed to win 😮

[@Andelaisi]

Must be the patch 😅 Especially the +4 damage to shields on sentries!

[@peterjessen97]

10:32 Really good storms Yeah he threw down like 6 of them. Shocker they hit something. Who cares if it also got his own Zealots?

[@kyleg5141]

I hate disruptors so much, possibly the worst unit added to the game.

[@davidmarquez126]

Toss A+click = GG

[@alk672]

Game three is so typical. Terran takes the risk and it works out, kills 7 probes with hellions. In a balanced RTS terran would be ahead. But because protoss is protoss Hero just moves his stalkers across the map and basically shows them. Blinks back and forth, doesn't really do much, just moves them around. Deals no serious damage, even loses 7 more probes to that liberator back home. You would think terran is massively ahead. But actually, terran is massively behind and the game is over. And the reason for that is because protoss is starting to win the game at second 1. Whenever time passes, protoss gets ahead more. Protoss doesn't need to do anything, just watch the clock tick up. Chronoboosted economy and hands free autodefense units automatically win.

Super biased take. The observer shows the units lost overview at 39:27 and you can see protoss has only lost 5 more workers than terran but her0's control was amazing - only losing a single adept and a stalker versus 1 medivac, 1 liberator, 2 helions, and 8 marines (and a refinery and 2 supply depots). Despite all of that - the terran is still technically ahead economically since 2 orbitals/mules are the equivalent of 12 extra workers worth of income. So the worker counts are 44 for toss and 43 (+12) for terran. Terran then proceeded to give away 2 widow mines and 2 medivacs almost for free before the first major fight of the game. Following that fight the terran proceeded to do nothing and let her0 expand uncontested. At 45:17 her0 has 5 bases setup with 83 workers while containing byun to 3. Then the next engagement begins with her0 baiting byun into taking two huge disruptor shots - again basically for free. And then when the fight begins her0 just pulls his colossi back and byun doesn't micro his vikings at all letting them fly over the stalkers and get focused down. Then despite taking his 4th at the 13 minute mark he doesn't start mining from it until nearly a minute and a half later while her0 expands to a sixth and seventh base with no counter harass. byun then finally pushes across the map at the 48:30 mark and destroys her0's 4th base but overextends and loses a good chunk of the army on the right side. he also didn't manage to get many of the probes which just relocate to her0's other bases which keeps his economy mostly intact. byun just got outplayed.
