Even though I admire Savior more than any other progamer ATM, he did make several mistakes in the last part of the game that would otherwise be his. What was annoying was the feeling that because of the map Savior has to do everything absolutely perfect to have a chance where as the Terran could do so many unaccurate things and still win. I know that midas is a special case and he is pretty equal with savior on tvz but the way they played THIS game I don't think Midas would win on a more balanced map.

Map developers in BW have the potential to be like Greek gods They create the land, decide which will be stronger. Than the progamers have to fight against nature like Homerus' Odyssey.

I think that game actually showed that Midas is definetly not on Savior's level TvZ/ZvT. Watching that gave me the feeling of Midas just barely surviving because Zerg had to literally waste units getting through that choke while terran sends out a small MM/Vessel force and smashes expoes. Granted Savior made some mistakes but he definetly had an incredibly difficult path in front of him.

Ok? So wouldn't that be Saviors own fault? That he didn't send back units to save his expo? By the way the video isnt loading for me o_O

he did send units to save his expos, but he has to send like 2 million of them just to defend it while midas is just like w/e 2 firebats vs 201491024 lings and the expo is still safe

the map is imba

Everyone seems to underestimate Midas. Being the sAvior fanboy that I am: if I had to chose someone to defend my life against savior in a game, it'd be midas.

Although I think savior played better, he probably would have beaten any other terran. --V

it seem we are all a whole mind,yes Savior is very great player, we can compare him to federer of tennis. But what i have seen, he has made a lot of small mistakes, he throw and lose a lot of units in midgame, althought i have to recognize is the most perfect player i have ever seen.
I'm sure the programers of the next generation will be as good as him. he is one step forward everyone.
i hope nal_Ra take him down in the finals.

Well actually I was amazed that Savior held on for so long. After the early game battles he was soo much behind gaswise- always loosing his lurks and just killing m&m for it mostly. That vessel cloud was just plain sick. His ling control however...was just... I'm speechless- that's what keept him in the game for so long and almost made him win.

I dont like Savior but it's really interesting to see that even when he's about to loose a game he's still extremly dangerous. I dont think he's perfect at all, just a very calm strategic mind. As soon as he stands on two feet in a game it seems very hard to beat him cause he will use nearly all options he's got.

Midas power grows from what i've seen exponentionaly. The bigger his base gets the more it is harder to completly crush him. But unlike savior and besides his macro he seems more one dimensional to me. A strong player no doubt. But the fact that savior forced up his rythim on him even when things looked bad for savior is a sign that a more balanced map would have crushed midas neck.

Very nice, I love those cut throat games.

Midas\' firebats were awsome job in dwindling down his opponents zerglings. This almost 40 minute game proves that Hitchiker is a very well balanced map.

You have a lot of opportunities to attack from different angles, and you can use a shit load of different strategies, it\'s not just macro, which is good imo. Boxer would of loved this map.
If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans.

There is a first person view of both players during this game/vod for short periods.

I'm sure there is no vod with 100% first person view of either way. I hope im wrong tho
