2-1


To have a draw and then play a 46 minute game is true passion. Also fruitland.

+ Show Spoiler +
Lorning drops a bombshell by telling us that Shellshock actually supports someone.

&#91;image loading&#93;
Also, giant lemon hype.


GumBa goes for the super-meta proxy +1 timing while Lorning complains about how small the map is.

&#91;image loading&#93;
This build only works because protoss can't fit enough gateways in their main to 1 base all-in obviously.


Lorning goes for a super sneaky 4 gate with 3 hidden gateways, since he apparently can't fit anything in his main.

&#91;image loading&#93;

The reaper sees nothing. I dunno how it didn't see the gateways but it just didn't.

&#91;image loading&#93;

Lorning is stunned that GumBa has used this super effective strategy of proxying upgrades to block his natural. However, GumBa was kind enough to not actually upgrade anything, although one of the upgrades would later turn out to be pivotal. He passed this off as a misplay. I agree.

&#91;image loading&#93;

Based on how this series has gone, GumBa got a blind bunker and blindly pulled SCVs. Lorning got metagamed.

&#91;image loading&#93;
Oh yeah, and he's getting a tank.


Lorning tries an attack but GumBa pulls more SCVs than can actually fit around the bunker to repair. This has the effect of blocking off some of Lorning's retreating units.

&#91;image loading&#93;
Those tactics.


Lorning expands and GumBa remains very paranoid.

&#91;image loading&#93;

GumBa does a bit of damage with a marine drop, so Lorning decides to attack the front.

&#91;image loading&#93;
&#91;image loading&#93;

Lorning forces a lift on the natural CC and retreats in order to refuel on passion.

&#91;image loading&#93;
&#91;image loading&#93;
Also, he needs an immortal to break the tanks.


Suddenly, the entire game turns around as GumBa reveals that he has not learned a damn thing this whole series!

&#91;image loading&#93;
Me: "-____-"


Predictably, Lorning goes for another bust and breaks the natural again as GumBa didn't even build any more bunkers. GumBa must lift and try again later.

&#91;image loading&#93;
&#91;image loading&#93;

GumBa is fed up and pulls the boys.

&#91;image loading&#93;

It still qualifies as pulling the boys even though all of the SCVs die except for about 3.

&#91;image loading&#93;

GumBa goes full Polt and snipes the third, so Lorning moves out again.

&#91;image loading&#93;
&#91;image loading&#93;
GumBa provoked the sleeping beast.


Even though GumBa won the only game where both players sat back for a majority of the game, he insisted on trying to equalize with an attack… and now he'll pay.

&#91;image loading&#93;
&#91;image loading&#93;
&#91;image loading&#93;

Lorning takes a 3-1 lead. To make a comeback, GumBa will have to be an iron wall. A soulkey. He can not give up an inch or his weaknesses will be easily exploited.
Can he do it?

+ Show Spoiler +
The next game has Lorning hiding gateways too.

The classic proxy 4 gate.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

Lorning's tactics are disgusting. He should apologize for playing that race !
But at least that proves he read the Great Book of Protoss Bullshit. Is there an exam about it when entering TL-staff ? :-p

Edit: first sentence is obviously sarcasm.

To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.
