Lol that's what casy is known for -.-. neo-emperor, crazy micro. He has the best marine micro of any pro in my opinion along with boxer.

and casy did do that sort of spontaneously, he tried to kill the overlord with his marines remember? If he had killed it he wouldnt have used scvs to mine.
Totally true. Boxer admitted to this countless times. I don't see how planning and practicing a brilliant strategic move takes away from the coolness of it.
Casy definately has some resemblance to the almighty Lim.
I just wish his TvP would be better, since just like the emperor himself, he isn't much of a macro player and TvP is pretty much about macro usually.
And I agree with ManaBlue, doesn't matter if you practice or prepare some cool micro move, it's cool anyways. Besides I think it's even sweeter if it's carefully planned and tested and ends up winning the game.
This does show there's still room for lots of neat tricks and innovation in Starcraft and it's all not just one big generic macro fest.

What if that was the last nice trick to be invented?

Indeed. If anything it adds to the coolness because it adds another layer of brilliance.
Yeah, that play was as incredible as you describe. I remember seeing it live and thinking.. "I didn't know you could get bugged vods...", then a second later I realised what he did and my jaw dropped.
i cant understand how some1 can have a terrific tvz and suck at tvp. i just cant get that to my head; TvZ is sooooo much harder to do, with all the micro, macro, unit combos needed. i think casy loves tvz and perhaps dislikes tvp and thats why he's not that good vs p. i think he could own protoss if he really had the will to practice more.

and yea seriously the <50 post noobs need to stfu or else i smell some serious mass nuking
18handjobbob, of course this move wouldn't have worked out on you because you are some fucking newbie, who ALWAYS does three sunkens at his FE, because that's your standard BO that you alwways do. However these guys play at a level which is astronomic compared to your shitty little skill. With your statement you have proved that you understood NOTHING at all about broodwar and competitive play.
