    Holy crap what a crazy game, reminds me of a game I watched where there was a crazy base race and seemingly the only unit left on the map was a Zealot, all he had to do was kill the enemy structures. There was a spawning pool and two evolution chambers, he killed one building, and the broodlings that spawned got the zealot to 1/4 HP. The protoss player knew that when he killed the next building, the broodlings would kill the Zealot and the zerg would still have one building left, ending in a draw. So the protoss started attacking both buildings alternating, so that he could kill one building, and then the other building right after, before the broodlings could kill him. He did so, but the zerg player had one drone left and right before he killed the evolution chambers, he started building an assimilator somewhere on the map, so the game had to end in a draw.

It would still have its pull, but in order to just yoink mothership, zerg players would have to use tactics, either by using multiple vipers in a chain on having to pull their army closer.

    That game was pure madness!
    I'm so bad at this game, but damn it's always beautiful to watch pros!

    I have to agree. This is the best game I have seen. Like that was ridiculous and I loved it.

    I remember that TY vs Creator game, now Creator brought up another exciting game. One of the most interesting games so far
