Memory actually done something really impressive. He fake-sparky terraned to the sunks pretending he's a noob with only 2 medics and without bats, and when Lux pulled his drones off (since he only had 2 lings at all), he came in with the bats and massacred a good number of drones. Mutas up for Lux though. Even if my liquidbet can go on it, I wouldn't be sad if memory would make it through this match i liked this fake-fake-sparky terran.

Mutas take out the gros of the terran attack force. But Memory is doing a good job keeping Lux's mutas busy, so far no economic damage has been done to him. He is also getting a vessel. Very solid play by him.

luxry has 4 sunkens at his nat now. mania moved out with a pretty big mm army, but he lost it all to luxury's muta micro. lux getting hive now. mania has 5 hatch and science facility up. he has replaced most of his drones as well. started a second evo for melee.

Lux delaying Memory's mnm force with some mutamicro, now going for some harass, trying to get a sneaky expo at the top left, but gets spotted. Now looks killing one of memory's ebays, this can be critical when the ultras come. It seems Lux has more mutas than expected, now attacking the second ebay. Memory is forced to move his forces back.

Umm im not sure, but i DO remember it was the awesome tvp dodger, tvz art player Casy Aka iOi[Alive]/Really[Alive] who did the fake fe to july right ?
Anyway, sounds from the live report that Luxury seems to be losing ? Keep going pangshai, always love your live reports !

Muta harass still going on, ultra cavern done. Memory has to recall his forward marine group as his defense marines got raped by mutas. Lux keeping himself in the game somehow, although the ball IS building up. He needs more time still. Drop by Memory on the backdoor expo, gets down one of the evo chambers there and nearly the second, until ultras kill the drop. Terran now with decently sized blob.

Then you should have watched the last season of MSL where July was eliminated by Memory on this map.

Brilliant by Memory again!, dropping in the back Nat, killing 1 evo, the other barely survives. Replyingexcellently. Lux has ultras now, his expo in the bottom right is dropped and killed, he manages to save his evo again. Ultras stopping the construction of Memory's back nat. Memory in a comfortable position now. Lux getting pure ultra? LOLWTF

I would rather say Lux is consolidating himself. Mutas find a 9 oclock expansion attempt but cannot stop it, ultras are building now. Terran move might be too late overall, as zerg forces are massing. Some backdoor ultras hit memory's natural, sneaky scourge get 2 vessels and the ulras are going mad right there.
Ultras are finally disposed of, drop finds top left expansion attempt by lux, kills the hatch just as reinforcements arrive.

ultra cavern has started for luxury. his muta micro is doing a lot of damage. memory just lost a control group of marines in his main to the muta micro of luxury. i believe luxury should be at advantage now. oh but mania does drop on his evos and he'll take them out. so luxury won't have the upgrade advantage. pity, evo upgrading carapace still alive. probably double digit hp. mania drops luxury's bottom right base, and its down. i believe the upgrades on the ultralisks are 4/1. mania moving out with a sizable marine medic army now. lux with about 7-8 ultras out to defend. this battle will be crucial. winner of this battle will take the game. mass ultralisks move to mania's nat and a couple get taken out. the rest are damaged. mania with back nat up. i don't know why lux did that attack. dropship moving out to prevent a fourth gas from lux, taking out the top left expo now.

Poor July got it from Memory as well. He faked a one rax CC when he had hidden two more raxes somewhere.
Memory is actually a really talented player, and he has the kind of mind (and time!) to come up with great strategies. He just needs to steady his nerves.

Pure ultra ling, no defiler. This should get owned by the vessels in the long run, Memory has 4 of them atm.
|
Lux attacking Memory's main, buying some time and taking out 2 (was that 3?) vessels, he built a hatchery in the top left corner, but it gets dropped and taken out. Lux scourging Memory's dropship. Memory using his 3 gas to pump a lot of vessels and tanks in the same time. He is doing a decent job keeping the zerg gas count low, running around, killing expoes. Losing a vessel carelessly. Lux has massed a big ultraling army meanwhile, he pincers Memory's mnmntanknvessel army from 2 sides, and completely wipes it out.

What a battle! Terran force gets flanked by ultraling, irradiate only helps at the beginning, but the terrans are slaughtered. Bottom right is saved by some ultras and lings. Game in the hands of lux now.
|
nice reports guys! cheers!
|
Luxury is so awesome. Memory has 0 vessels right now...
|
Wow... Ultralisk sandwich.
|
luxury has taken bottom right though, and he's taking the 12 expo as well. mania really needs to do something with his army. he's just moving around centre, being undecided. bottom right is up for lux. he's got a pretty big ultraling army flanks the terran army and will take it all out. drop on bottom right unsuccessful. taken out by 2 ultras. now lux has bottom right, top left, 12 base and thats a total of 6 gas. moving down to mania's nat now. losing many ultras. but hell replace those easily. mania's army is dead. mania drop on top left, but it fails to take out the expo as well.
