    I swear that Maru's strategy is to get so far behind that his opponent has no clue how he still manages to hang on for so long, then have his opponent misread the game in frustration and throw away their entire army.

      He's slow-rolling his opponent; stretching his starting resources so much that when they start running out and are forced to expand into his defensive zones he can draw out that fight until they're out, and he's barely nót because he trades efficiently all game long.

    13:13 Actually in the Alpha they did have a moving protoss building called the phase cannon which was a prototype of the photon cannon. It was removed because during testing it was found to be unfair and unbalanced because they could push up with protoss units for a nearly unstoppable push. The moving defense idea however was then given to the zerg defense structures.

    The thing about marus game play to me is that I feel like he is thinking about this in all numbers like, he can go even trade for trade all game vs protoss or zerg and that actually means he is coming out on top in the end late game. He knows that if he can just hold off his opponent even all game he knows he can win the late game. I feel their alot that goes into that with his incredible micro plays awareness and everything else in motion. However Maru just feels like a chess player where he knows ALL the moves and he is just herding you into a certain position all game. Sorry for the long post think of potatoes! :)

      @VortexMagus 2 роки тому

      Eh? You really think so? Solar wiped two substantial armies of Maru and had a huge supply and mineral lead at several points in the game. If Solar had gone all-in earlier, he had a pretty substantial chance of winning the game right then and there.
      His decision to expand to more bases and slow down the game meant that a huge amount of his supply ended up tied up in drones rather than army, and Maru had a chance recover from difficult positions, to drag the game out and take advantageous trades with siege tanks and thors against Solar's relatively smaller army supply.
      A big part of playing Zerg is knowing when to all-in and when to play macro and I think Solar chose wrongly in this instance.

    @lmeza1983 3 роки тому

    I think is very clear when the zerg player owns most of the map and needs spells in order to actually have an advantage during a fight vs mostly lower tier units, terran is broken as F. By the way they can heal-repair instantly to further neglect the small damage the zerg can make while taking tons just to engage.
    Terran can always wait for the tank to hit something before even deciding if engage or not...

    It was strange to watch a match with my name being said all the time. (Made my nickname years before playing Starcraft. Also, never knew there was a player named Solar).

    The heroes of the day is those 3 liberators that save the final battle. Without them, thors could have been eliminated and Maru would have lost the game

    Why no one ever uses bunkers and firebats, one bunker for 100 has 350 health, increases the range of any unit in it, a stimmed marine/firebat with 1 health can still do a lot of damage inside a bunker, especially against zerglinks. it's good for both defense and offense.

    I'm new to this game. Just wondering why the Zerg lost, it looked like they're winning the last combat?

      The units they had left were Air to Air units. He had nothing to kill the thors wich can shoot land and air units effectively.
