Does anyone else not like the recent Terran trend of playing Mech vs. zerg?
Bio had so much micro on both sides. Running in with lings and lurkers while dropping swarms in an attempt to get a surround on a fast-moving Terran army, the Terran stimming, dealing damage and pulling back just in the nick of time - Muta micro being absolutely key in keeping you just out of the range of marines... Those were the good old days.
Now, with the terran so out-ranging the zerg in everything, micro is much less important. It's all about who can mass up the biggest army and win that one huge battle that tends to happen when Terran pushes for base number 3. Lots of hydras, and lots of boring.
I miss the micro-intensive armies dashing everywhere. Watching an entire platoon of marines empty round after round into that one ultralisk that just. won't. go. down. I miss yesteryear. Plus now we're never going to see marines ever again. They weren't in TvP, they weren't in TvT, now they're not in TvZ. To the Terran Marine: We hardly knew ye.

Calm taking a mineral only and and the natural expansion of the 12oclock, after he figures that mutas are reaching their end of use.

The commentators are yelling loudly about something. Perhaps it is the bone-crushung push reality is about to make.

Reality's bone-crushing push gets crushed.
Calm is impossibly ahead.

Everyone needs to watch these vods for a textbook play to deal with pure mech tvz, it just doesnt work anymore. JDs Desti vMech games and Kwanro vMech play are good examples too.

Hydra pincer attack slices through Reality's army like a machete through butter, Calm calmly throwing away the remains of his hydra force.... but still, he's running off 4 bases, soon 5, while Reality is still at two.
|
Calm is so impatient in this series...
|
Here comes the drop and the end of the chances Reality had.

A huge drop. Armory goes down. But not much else damage is done. Calm is still impossibly ahead.

If Calm weren't so far ahead maybe it would matter that he is throwing away hydras like they were lings.

2base gol timing pushes do suck the ass.
Calm coulda just countered him as well and gg'd him

Real men waste any unit, regardless of cost!
