Today's match
Midas/Ddang (T, GO) vs Ra (P, KTF) on Arizona GoRush (Z, GO) vs JulyZerg (Z, POS) on Into The Darkness 2 Iloveoov (T, SK T1) vs ArtOfTerran (T, Hexatron) on Luna Xellos (T, GO) vs Sync/Blaze (T, KTF) on Raid-Assault
Game 1 Midas/Ddang (T, GO) vs Ra (P, KTF) on Arizona
Midas 8, Ra 11
Midas went 2 fact and came out with 6 marines and 1 tank, pushing little by little. Ra went 2 gates and was about to go 3rd gate and robotics, but then Ra cancelled the gate and robotics facility and went stargate. Without any expos, Ra went 2 stargates and 1 fleet beacon, getting 2 carriers while only having like 6~8 goons.
But when Ra had his first carrier out, Midas saw the stargates with his 2 vultures. Right after that, Midas, who already took his nat without any harassment from Ra, went 6 rax right after his 6 factories. He lost like 1 to 2 tanks to the carriers, and just went up with like 6 tanks, a group of M&M, 6~7 vultures, and 2~3 goliaths. Ra was preparing his natural, and only had like 3 carriers and 8 goons and he couldn't defend the rush.
After that it was all over. Midas took 1 and 5, and pushed with more M&M&tanks&vultures&goliaths and killed 2 carriers and all the ground troops and pushed up to Ra's choke, where he had like 3 carriers without any interceptors.
GG.

Thx. Ra seems to go for weirder and weirder strats every game...

Gosus have to try new strats, they have to surprise their oponent

Frustrating to see Nal_Ra fuck up his games with these weird builds sometimes, he'd probably win if he just played a bit more standard...
But then again, it's so much cooler when a weird build works. :D

GoRush also took his nat, following July. GoRush was about to use speedup lings but he instead went lair.
|
July sent 8 lings, fought 8:8, but July had 5 lings left while GoRush lost all of his lings.
GoRush cancelled his nat.
|
July has too many lings (2~3 groups) and GoRush tries to defend the rush.
GoRush had like 1.5 groups, and although he fought well, July won the ling fight again.
July pulls back.
|
July attacks with a lot of lings again and July wins by a small margin. GoRush finally defends his nat but July comes with 3 mutas, killing many drones.
|
GoRush sends 4 lings into July's main but can't hunt many drones because there was some mutas and lings. July sent a group of lings again to kill GoRush's nat, now with some mutas.
But GoRush finally defends the rush. Has 1 muta left.
|
GoRush doesn't have any drones in his main. Sends about 2 groups of lings but July has the same amount of lings AND mutas.
|
GoRush sends his lings into July's main but there are many lings chasing it. July has 3 mutas killing drones and GoRush can't defend it.
GG

Game 3 Iloveoov (T, SK T1) vs ArtOfTerran (T, Hexatron) on Luna
Oov 11, Art 7
|
to play zvz - boring to watch zvz - boring to read zvz - boring
couldnt they just toss a coin or kick each other in the nuts until one passes out to determine the winner instead of playing this shitty matchup?
|
Both Oov and Art sends his scv to 5.
|
Art goes 2 fact and adds his first addon while Oov goes 1 fact 1 port
|
And Arts sees it with his scv.
|
Oov is getting a wraith while Art goes armory. Seems good for Art now.
|
Art sends his vultures and mines near Oov's nat.
|
Art has goliaths out and Oov clears Art's mines with tanks.
|
Somehow Oov comes down with tanks and sieges near the bridges. With 1 fact 1 port.
|
Oov comes down with 4 tanks while Art goes up with 3 tanks and 1 goliaths, then pulls back.
Oov takes his nat faster than Art.
|
Oov's first wraith got killed by a turret.
|
Oov went 4 fact while Art only has 2 facts. Art lost his barracks before and couldn't add more factories.
Oov takes 2.
|
Both are getting tanks in the center, lining them up. Oov has a dropship and sends 2 tanks on 5, was about to kill them if Art took any expo there.
Art lifted his 2 facts and landed somewhere else.
|
Art takes 6.
Oov has 3 dropships and was about to drop on Art's main but Art had turrets on place and Oov just pulled back.
|
Art comes to the center with many goliaths and tanks.
Art takes 5 nat. Art goes up to clear 2 tanks and 3 goliaths in position but lost a lot of units while doing it.
|
Oov uses 4 dropships to attack 5 nat. Although Art had 4 turrets on place Oov just went down and dropped many units to clear 5 nat.
Art decides to go in with all of his tanks.
Oov is going battlecruisers.
|
Oov has so many tanks in position and Art can't decide whether to go in or not.
Art goes in with many many scvs and many many tanks but Oov defends with many many many scvs and many many many tanks.
All of Art's troops are dead.
GG.

At last Art tried to break through with many scvs, but Oov was so smart and already had scvs in place to do the same thing as what Art did. Oov's tanks were positioned while Art was moving up. Oov won the fight easily.

Game 4 Xellos (T, GO) vs Sync/Blaze (T, KTF) on Raid-Assault
Xellos 12, Sync 6
|
Both are going very normally. Both players' builds are exactly same now
|
Xellos went 2 fact and added his first addon while Sync went 1 fact double cc.
|
Xellos goes down with 1 vulture and 1 tank. Xellos tries to push down. Sync had 2 tanks and took 3. Xellos tried to damage him with more vultures and mines but Sync went back and didn't get damaged by mines.
|
|
Sync blocks the back way to 9 with 2 depots and Xellos can't go through the depot wall with vultures. Very good.
Sync has a wraith out too.
|
Sync has a dropship out and drops 2 tanks on Xellos' main. Xellos comes back with 2 tanks and defends the drop easily.
Sync drops 2 tanks on upper ground on 12 (hard to describe this) and is attacking the starport.
|

Sync is so good tvt lately
|
Xellos defends with 1 tank and 2 goliaths drop and Sync pulls back right away.
Sync dropped a tank on the middleground, lost by a mine.
Xellos has 2 dropships and is moving here and there.
|
Sync moves up little by little. Had many tanks and got sieged faster. Xellos tried to defend it but by a bad micro he lost a dropship with 2 tanks in by two wraiths. Xellos pulled back and Sync's wraiths killed 3 tanks.
Sync moves in with more vultures by the back way, which Xellos didn't defend.
|
Sync is using cloaked wraiths to hunt dropships while Xellos doesn't seem to have any more scan.
Very good, very good.
|
Xellos is trying to clear his back way but is losing several tanks. Xellos finally breaks through the back way but Sync now is pushing in by the main way now.
|
|
Sync lost some wraiths by some bad micro but Sync is taking 1 now.
|
Xellos moves a lot of units to the back way and is trying to attack Sync's main. Sync sees it with scan and had tanks in position. Xellos lost a lot of units again.
|
This map is just too confusing.
Sync is using dropships to strike here and there.
|
Xellos lost like 3 dropships just now.
|
Xellos has many units too but Sync is in a much better position.
|
Both sieged below the main and are striking main with tanks.
|
Sync drops with 3~4 dropships on 7, which Xellos took. Both has many expos, Xellos on left, Sync on right.
|
Xellos prepares for battlecruisers
|
Sync is dropping here and there. Sync dropped on main this time but Xellos defended with dropship drops.
|
Somehow Xellos is coming back.
|
OMG. This looks like crazy game :O Xellos is known for his comebacks
And btw DoubleStormIII thx for reports
|
Sync moved back way to attack Xellos' 11 but Xellos has 4 bcs out!
|
Sync used many vultures to clear scvs out but Xellos has bcs and now is striking 1 with dropships, clearing another bunch of scvs.
|
Sync lost his physics lab
|
Xellos has 6 bcs while Sync has about
Sync is taking 5 while Xellos took 11 already.
|
Xellos is attacking 1 with 6 bcs while Sync is attacking center with 5 bcs.
|
Xellos has 8 bcs now. Sync has many many goliaths, but no one knows who will win.
|
Sync strikes 8. 8 is cleared.
|
Xellos strikes 1 with like 9 bcs while Sync decides to give it away and strikes 7.
|
|
who said tvt isnt fun? ^^
|
Sync takes 1 again. Xellos lost 7 and 8. Xellos has better upgrade for bcs while Sync has a lot of goliaths and better economy.
|
Seems Xellos has about 15 bcs while Sync has about 7~8. Xellos destroys 1 again with bcs.
|
|
Both are going here and there.
Xellos yamatoed some turrets while Sync came up with many goliaths. Xellos pulls back.
|
Xellos had 2 bcs on a bad position and lost them while killing one of Sync's.
|
Xellos is making more bcs while Sync's facts and ports are not working any more.
|
Xellos is getting vessels now
|
Xellos dropped tanks on 5 while Sync sent dropships and goliaths to defend. Lost some goliaths.
|
|
Xellos mined all the minerals. Sync is taking 5 while both are fighting to take 2.
|
This is just confusing. Xellos is pulling his bcs back...
Xellos shoots an emp shockwave on Sync's bcs. Then Xellos strikes.
A BIG BC FIGHT
Xellos has more bcs, better bc upgrade, and yamato. Sync has many goliaths (3-0).
And Sync wins with the help of many many goliaths.
GG.
|
Xellos' tanks were too late.
|
What a game Thx Doublestorm

Ra'd surprise everybody, if he went for a normal BO for once -_-
|
Gorush can never be equal in al matchups. If his zvt is increasing with wins over oov for example. His zvz is reducing. His in the different matchups must be balanced.

ZvZ is the fastest, shortest matchup of all, with the least variety in builds. ling fight, muta-scourge fight GG. but the actions are non-stop and the smallest mistake can cost the game. TvT is the slowest, longest matchup of all, you almost always see both sides hit pop cap and pump out ultimate weapons. ppl favor one over the otjher according to their diff tastes

that's also what happened to me. i saw the news in scgamers first. do golfers and scers have anything in common? what kind of sponsor is that
|
wasted i think id rather watch a zvz game than just about any other matchup, its perfectly balanced with lots of action i love it.
|
That's just the name of Golf game. -.-
|
Would have been 3/4 (stupid GoRush) if there had been liquibet :/
|
|
ra should stick to solid BOs he is losing too many games right now
