      ​@hiramrichmond3341 also when you get genuinely good at something, getting beat tends to be more interesting than winning.
      Figuring out where you or they made mistakes and finding a solution is what makes strategy so rewarding.

    It's like Maplez also won game 3 in a strategic sense but was not able to convert it into victory

    The Starcraft community has optimized the fun out of this game to the point where using a strategy that isn't in the approved handbook is considered dirty play.

    I remember watching these games live on the Cranky Duck stream. I am aware of plently of players not quite in the professional scene, but this was my first time watching Maplez. I was pleasantly surprised! GG Maplez and Cure!

    Marauders are such a hard counter to Stalkers. It hurts so bad watching Protoss players respond to Marauders by simply feeding them more Stalkers.

    Maplez did the reasonable move of going cheese/all-ins and not a long drawn macro game. The number of events requiring attention is lower in the early game, where I see the Pro/GM gap is at its minimum. The no-attention on the widow mine in the last game showed the chaos in which Maplez's APM could no longer cope.

  • @dariusgunter5344

    Honestly maple deserved the win here, they mostly lost because they just had worse control in the second game when it came to the anti armor missiles, but that was a great game and it's wonderful to see a non pro nearly beating someone on cures level in a bo3

    Watched this on Pig's channel, but that game 1 was so good, I had to see your take as well. :D Just wanted to mention that in that game Maplez also did some solid Adept micro, baiting mine shots from the high ground, the man was really on it.

If i can give you this feedback, you are my go to watch after I have made myself food. I think zerglings morphing into banelings is a punishment, since their name is "pain"lings :)

    I find it insulting that a 2WM drop, which is a very cheap, very low commit, can deal as much, or close to as much damage as a 30+ glaive and +1 adepts, which is a huge commit.

    From the lofty heights of 🌩*plat*🌩 I have a question: does the new tempest buff mean the rush time for the tempest is way faster if you don't proxy? how many seconds slower is a buffed tempest from your base than an old tempest from a proxy a few bases out from the enemy base?

    • @Norirane
      @Norirane 6 місяців тому

      Shouldn't be too different, they reach top speed faster now, which mostly affects micro, not overall movement speed

    Raven missle is good but not a key in game 3 though - Maple's army supply is only half of Cure's when that fight started. Between 28:15 and 29:20 he couldn't pull himself out of the Adept glory and lost the prism and almost all newly built units (6 adepts) in this one minute, resulting in his army supply went from 32 to 35, while Cure's MMM grew from 30 to 68. This was when Cure had 20+ less workers. It's the basic stuff-making difference between a real pro and who isn't.

    • @doltecbyal
      @doltecbyal 6 місяців тому

      It doesn't matter that Cure had 20 less workers, Terran can just drop mules which is exactly what Cure did and it meant his mineral rate was able to keep pace with Maple's mineral rate despite all the SCVs Maple killed with his adepts.

    Mine's require zero actions APM to use. I don't think they should be in SCII. People say terran require high amounts of micro. Well, that's not very true since a lot of the damage is by AUTO fire from mines. Without mines i could guess zero PRO terrans in SCII top 10.
    all other units in the game require a committed action from the user. As of now. Terran is not a balanced race.
