midas is on his way to denying mania's mineral only too, midas must have like 30 tanks.... holy shit
4goliath drop from mania on the right side finds midas' cc at 3 but midas is right on that, sending like 24 tankgol to stop that before much damage is dealt.... that was his high ground containing force though which mania then disposes of, midas denies 12 again
more tank battles on the upper side... midas clearly ahead, i expect a gg or game ending offensive soon

midas retaking teh 5 expo, he may be, yes he has the 3 main as well.
4 goli drop at said 3 main though, midas moving units over from the north ramp to help take this out.

mania drops 4 goli on the 2 tanks that remained at the north ramp, tanks die. however most of those untis had moved to shut down the 12 expo, they're going up the ramp now easily.
mania moves tans from his main to try to stop this, but repelled by midas' tanks below cramp.
2 port BC's for midas.

mania drops 5 with a couple dropships.... kills off some scvs, turrets
midas heads there immediately with 12 tankgol however... oh but CC dies?!
dropships sees scvs transferred to 3 but he can't do anything
mania's tankgol force heading down to 3 but is denied by midas' even larger tank/gol force on both sides
FINAL BATTLE mania sends like twelve scvs to help change the tide but totally denied, his force dies
still more meaningless fighting in middle, midas with overwhelming power
GG from mania

the only expo midas doesnt have now, are 12, 3 min only, 3 nat.
mani has his nat cc shut down? I guess i missed this.
mania tries to clear teh tanks at 12 ramp, but they die to a much larger force.
dropships drop some tanks in mid, midas kills these too.
Mania GG's
Midas wins

GG, Midas showed absolute dominance of mania this game.

Impressive unit mobility from midas. When's the last time a TvT was won by the player without any dropships? :O

I don't know... Mania was so effing bad, you can't really credit the winner.
|
There's a huge difference in skill and experience...
But Mania showed some good stuff in the beginning. He should try to crack Midas again using dropship plays.

Can you defend his play though? Midas could have cracked him much earlier with more aggressive play from the get-go, I don't see how you can say his beginning was good either.

Mania's play wasnt bad at all, considering he gained the econ advantage by easily pulling off a 14cc. He made a control mistake with his tanks in the beginning that allowed midas to start setting up the contain at the min only, and mania responded properly by taking the air route.
And he attacked 3 places at once in quick fashion; a lesser terran wouldnt have been able to defend it nearly as well as midas was able to.

both players doing a standard supply-rax-gas build, cant really tell whose is slightly more efficient. Mania opts to send out a pretty early scout towards midas.

mania's scv reaches midas' main, sees the standard 1 rax 1 fac. rine pops out and chases scv away towards the west.
midas now sends scv out towards mania. mania makes 1 rine then floats rax.

midas scv reaches mania ramp, but 2 rines are there to block teh ramp.
hmmm, interesting splitscrens to see fanboards/player's faces for this ODT.
vult out for mania, midas with... 4 rines? 3 on ramp, 1 at the bottom choke.
midas goes tank first.

=O shower at 6 AM woo woo
maybe i'll just do color commentary for this one
mania scv still alive in midas base up till tank came out, 3 marines chasing it and failing = LOLOL
mania's ALLIANCE OF FORCES also makes me laugh 1tank, 1vult, 2marines, and a wraith the coalition!
