i kinda dont like the new sub rules. the fact that no player thats been on the line up can sub-in means only players that weren't on planing on playing in the week are allowed to sub-in. now whats the chances of someone who isn't suspecting to play and havent made the time in their schedule to be on at the given time to be available to act as a sub.

you might as well just say that theres no subs allowed, because you are drastically reducing the chance that a valid sub would even be available. the only people that can sub-in would be the people thats not even gonna be online.

i didnt see anything wrong or abusible with the sub-ins in weeks 1-4, it was the postponing and rescheduling thats causing all the drama and dont understand this sudden change in the rules.

also i liked jealous's suggestion of increasing the late time from 15 to 30 minutes. since after march 25th the times will be changed to an hour earlier for people that had the summer-daytime saving, i can imagine a lot of schedule conflicts. i, personally, will have to play at noon which is when i eat lunch and would most likely have to play either 30 minutes earlier or 30 minutes after the given time.

Haha I'm sure it was, at least for you.

Not so much for me.

From this game I learned a useful thing: DO NOT upgrade air armor before goon range when doing 21 nexus in PvT. It is very hard to defend an FD if you do this.

Basically do not play PvT on reverse ramp map. Nearly every variation of T cheese is good on it and you have to guess which one.

I just go 3 fact off 1 base and its auto-win unless you bulldog

1 gate/12 nexus = dies
1 gate reaver = the best you can hope for is worker trade with me lifting and you dying (i usually have turrets ready as I've died to this enough times with fact cheese and used to make the mistake of defending and letting him buy time instead of attacking)
2 gate = can't get up ramp because of mines and goons will miss siege tanks
2 gate robo = not enough goons to defend against mass mines and probe harass
3 gate robo (bulldog) = can win easily if other player doesn't expect it (which I will as its the only really viable build in this scenario)
1 base scout Kal style = possible but need good anti-turret awareness

Reverse ramp favors Standard Toss vs Standard Terran, or more generally early aggression. Possibly one of the reasons its in the map pool in the first place. Obviously siege Expand and 1 Rax FE are both really difficult to defend against most Toss builds on reverse ramp, send in an aggressive zealot or two and a rag tag bunker/seige bust army and most of the time you can come out on top if not win outright.

The opposite situation happens when Terran takes the initiative, and is even stronger in this situation when you realise that you have to kill tanks, mines and bunkers on high ground to get out of your main.

You're not playing good Terrans then.

If reverse ramp the Protoss actually has an advantage due to the fact that he can wait outside Terran's ramp and delay any kind of push. 2 gate? No problems to both FD and 2 fact.
