I took out a base and told my opponent to leave the game, as is customary. But then this IMBA terran builds ghost units and easily destroys my army, even with shield upgrades finished for my archons!"

Tbf a reactor on factory usually doesn't mean shit, any decent player knows that the scout on whether a Terran is playing bio or mech is dependent on seeing the extra factories/rax. Edit: But in this game he scouted the mech army comp with an observer before going thermal. Honestly this game is funny just because "Mech" comps like this in TvP aren't viable and it feels like someone is playing a challenge against you when they try to do this if you just make immortal/zealot/archon(if no ghost) and/or disruptors especially if there's Thors or ghosts.

Two things anyone aspiring to be diamond should take note of: both players in this replay have almost no scouting. And both players are only at 130 supply @9:30. The benchmark Diamond players should shoot for to max is 9 minutes - you can do it in less. This is evidence that you can (and should) brute force your way to Diamond just by polishing your macro. Macro is arguably the most fundamental of the game.

I got to Diamond from Gold 3 doing this and I've even had Diamond games where I lost 30 workers in the first 8 minutes, but was still ahead in army _and_ workers because it's common for even Diamond players forget to macro while they micro - not macroing while harassing or microing is the same as hurting yourself. You're better off simplifying your learning goals and just focus on your macro until you can slowly incorporate harass and micro in.

I totally sympathize with that many cyclones feeling weird to fight, and especially feeling like even if your immortals are strong you're at such a mobility disadvantage that you'd want to tweak your comp. Though obviously as Harstem says map control and positioning go a long way to make the mobility disadvantage less strong. Keep on sucking (relative to Harstem and maybe purplefury) til you're great Mr. Moo!

I'm not 100% sure on those costs, but point still stands, never uses robo bay again. Of course the main killer here is poor map control and positioning.

the banter beacon is irresistible, every body must admit to an occasional banter beacon. The banter beacon is an ancient tradition in star craft. One way to tell an opponent to leave the game a long time ago was to use fleet beacons to wall in the bottom of the ramp of their base, and spam photon cannons around their final top cliff base, and surround from every direction until they left the game. The Fleet Beacon has so many meanings, one cannot toil with the power of the beacon. It isnt just a building, it feels like something more. Thats why its so irresistible, every body succumbs to the siren call of the carriers and the tempests and the motherships. A strange game, but slightly interesting. There was a moment there where an interceptor pulled a widow mine shot onto 4 cyclones to get the one interceptor. Im curious as to what happens if that occurs alot, there could have been an interesting moment there if he had all inned his carriers instead of pulling the interceptors back, where 4 or 5 interceptors where targeted why widow mines but where over his entire terran mech army, that could have been really bad if the carriers had not microed backwards and cancled all the widow mines shots due to the range validator, he could of ended up with his own widow mines friendly firing his entire cyclone army at 24:17. Perhaps thats a lesson: not to fight carriers ontop of your own mines. Widow mines are good at clearing large numbers of interceptors, but not if those interceptors are over your own army. A risky unit to use against carriers.

"Showing up to your son's 17th birthday with the morning after pill." Greatest Harstem comparison of all time
The reason why to wall on the natural side is so that if the reaper escapes he cannot do more damage on the unwalled side (the 3rd). Him being able to jump between natural and main creates a bit more headache. While the reaper would rather come from the 3rd side rather than from the natural, I'd not exactly call it a niche scenario. Maybe in the higher leagues this doesn't matter as much, though -perhaps because at that time when the reaper could do substantial damage to the natural they already fall off in effectiveness.
I love the natural rising anger of a proffesional in Harstem when he sees builds/gameplay getting butchered :)

Moo was winning... and the idiot refused to kill off the game, while Redfury stuck in, rebuilt and actually went in for the kill.
In fairness, it's hard to choose the right units for Protoss or Zerg, they are very specialized and situational. Terran can pretty much build anything at this level and it's viable at any stage of the game.

This was really a sad game. It was indeed a build order win for the Toss but he avoided cashing it in by somehow keeping his immortals from engaging in fights. Then they do engage once and he kind of wins but tells his opponent that he has no clue how to actually finish the game. The opponent is indeed kind of delusional for thinking he could still win by just rebuilding. But the Toss stops building immortals (freaking pacifist immortals just refusing to shoot the enemy) and thus manages to actually die.

Diamond 3 is just platinum 0 basically, like the guy said its much closer in mmr to platinum than it is to the middle of diamond. Diamond goes from like 3200 to 4300mmr so the "average" diamond MMR as in the middle of the league would be about 3800mmr so about 500 higher than this game, which is more than the difference from silver to platinum. Tl;Dr: From Blizzard trying to force an overly large amount of players to be in diamond league, the league encapsulates like virtually every player and has such a wide MMR range that it's meaningless without the specific tier division 1/2/3
There is nothing more toxic than a diamond league sc2 player who thinks they are good at the game .

Most of them have been long patched out by now, but I think there were definitely a few historical examples of balance issues primarily at the lower levels, in the sense that there were a few builds that could fairly easily be executed by low-level players but were fairly demanding for other low-level players to counter. Mass WoL void rays were probably the worst offender. From what I recall I believe the typical advice was to make sure to win the game before the mass void ray player builds too many of them, rather than any specific advice on how you might deal with the army. The void rays of today, of course, are not nearly as threatening.
