feels like an early GG to me, Terran still had the manpower for a successful defense of the base and the Toss carriers were few and very injured. Maybe a lack of intel from JyJ
His best bet would have been to max marines, stem pack, and mass medic. Emp from, science vessels and lock down from ghosts would be nice to. Much cheaper and very effective on carriers
Great game! What a back and forth. Terran won that critical mass engagement at 14:30 clean with no Storm Protoss. But he made a critical error not to continue on into Mini's main. Protoss managed to turn the tide with Carriers late and superb micro against mass Goliaths. Terran never built Wraiths or Science Vessels with EMP.
Actually, the best way to against Carrier is Ghost's Lockdown but the control system in BW is so terrible. That's why we rarely see Ghost are in use. I have played against BWAI. It only use Marine and Ghost to defeat my Carrier armies. Yea, I know I'm just a casual player but that AI is really rock.
Well JYJ had this in the bag halfway through. 6 carriers were all toss player had and he had many goliaths. Shooting interceptors is a waste of time. 1 minute of focus fire on them and he would have won. Also why does no one use emp against toss
Carriers against Terran always seemed like a huge gamble. Mainly, because when I was a kid we used more than two units in our composition. Lock down was such a great way to turn carriers into floating paperweights. Sure would be a shame if you tried to move goons across a choke point and you get body blocked with lockdown. As long as you're not getting absolutely destroyed, 3-4 ghosts isn't unreasonable.
Honestly I was not impressed with his goliath control, needed to choose his targets in those later fights rather than let his goliaths shoot aimlessly at interceptors. Kill the goons then focus on all body blows to the carriers. Also needed to use scan when the carriers hid on the high ground. He was doing OK all things considered, his tank control was on point.
Um, Flash thinks Goliaths are a good counter to mass Carriers. He uses it all the time. The secret? Get your attack upgrades ASAP. There’s a *huge* diff between +3 Gols’ antiair and +1 Gols’ AA, more so than for almost any other unit in the game. And obviously get Charon Boosters pretty quick too.
tbh JyJ lost the moment his first SCV went to the other side of the mineral to mine. That he even reduced the game to 1 base vs 1 base should be a win by itself.
U cant stop carriers with wraiths. One goliath kills aproximately as many interceptors for his own cost (for 100 minerals) its why Terrans make Goliaths. Wraith ball can die to 1-2 storms or 5-6 corsairs and wraith costs much more than a goliath,its a very poor and super deadly choice to go for wraiths. Also goliaths are as good as killing carriers,but can handle dragoons and zealots and everything the protoss has on the ground aswel,while wraith is ONLY good vs the carriers but not against anything else at all.
Why all terran use goliath again flyer? The terran have Wraith/Valkyrie/Battle cruiser! Invisibility again carrier! Lot a rockets again him! Or a shot of Yamato! No EMP again Protoss?
Valkyries are useless against capital ships, BCs are not cost effective. Wraith could be used but it also a coin flip. They are more expensive, more fragile than Goliath, and they depend too much on invisibility which could be countered by cheap Observers.
I also used to have dreams about unwinnable Starcraft games.
Thank you for all of your work Falcon. Keep it up!
Haha, worst nightmares! Thanks so much for the super generous donation! ❤️
chapeau bas good Sir!
👏🏼

Thank you for sharing your personal starcraft nightmares. I have nightmares of idle workers. 🤷♂️

23:40 this one here, the dragoons really were great ground support to the carriers
Man, do i like my Falcon casts!
5:52 Is not that complicated as it sounds. You move the dragoons and you press H (hold position) and as the mine pop up, they shoot at it!
Goliaths offline 😂

Polish guy here :) Everyone knows that the best version of The Office is the American version ;)
What was the link to the match you mentioned where the Terren uses wraiths?
I am looking for that linik myself! Useless wraiths v protoss? Yes please!

And this is why Goliath has never been a good unit to deal with carriers like most people think. I have seen wraiths having much more success.

No you haven't, that's a ridiculous statement.
That's also an expensive tech switch while most likely not having upgrades, and a simple tech switch to goons hard counters the wraiths.

Was missing a few ghosts for lockdowns on carriers
Cheers from Brazil!
Cheers to Brazil!
Too early!!! He shouldn't have left
i guess the terran had to go poo, otherwise he'd continued the defense
True - you will play against guys who think they are Light and Mini:)
Do people target fire carriers anymore?
Was minimal 12 gols vs 6 carier, strange decision
24:47 why not use dark templars in that situation?
It would have been a great play by the protoss since there was no science vessels..slip 2 DTs in the middle of those goliaths and laugh!
Comsat?
It is cool to carriers get used.
U meant "Vultures and Tanks" on 11:30 min
Super fun match!

You require more Gemini Missiles!
sooooooo many goliaths.
love it.

And yet, sometimes you CAN stop carriers with wraiths! ruclips.net/video/baMrOwj6hdQ/видео.html
carrie op , i wondering why no weasel
Awesome!
For the algorithm

Because it's the best choice, obviously.

Ghosts would be the better choice
gg!

Great game!
