... Violet has no carriers. hes getting 2/2 air upgrades for his... arbiters.. yeah that 12 explosive damage on the arb instead of 10 is really going to help you Violet.

Seems like Violet is trying to bait Light into producing less tanks + vultures and more goliaths.

Violet's also clearly researching the Shield upgrade, as evidenced by his Arbtier's current upgrades. He also has two Shuttles with his army. His standing ground army seems to be kind of small, though. He Hallucinates Arbiters and sends another recall into Light's nearly defenseless main.

The few tanks that Light had in his main to defend die, but Light sends more Tanks to defend.

Violet manages to Recall the 4 base even under a Vessel and 8 turrets. 4 goes down.

Today Violet showed sick Dragon level PvT, better than the bottom 3 even, sick sick play

That +Armor and +Shield upgrade is sure helping Violet get off Recalls that he definitely would not be able to normally get.

Light manages to shell down Violet's center expo. Light beings pushing down the bottom part of the map - Violet can't engage because of the huge tank numbers.

Another Recall attempt by Violet fails as the real Arbiter dies.

I don't. I made my case earlier; Skyhigh has never reached an individual league, and has mediocre TvZ and bad TvP. People say he's borderline S-class. Hence; overrated.


Probably because his first ever time going for a league through offlines, he made it, and he made it THROUGH BOTH 12-0. He didn't spend a year trying to make it.

He's always been a player with nerves, or inconsistency, or a combination of the two. On a good day he all kills in a final or can school best TvP, and on a bad day he loses to ggaemo 0-2. His TvT is extremely solid and TvZ/TvP very shaky. How can you bring up individual leagues when he shouldn't have achieved half the things he has for how long he's been playing?

It is true he is nowhere near S-Class (except TvT)

It is correct that he has not had a lot of chances of proving himself in individual leagues, but it is an important point nonetheless. You just can't be considered a top player until you've proven yourself in the Starleagues. Last season he failed in Survivor. This season he failed miserably in OSL Ro36. And I daresay if he fails today again, there is no doubt at all that he is overhyped. Doesn't matter if you blame it on nerves or whatever.

Violet pushes into Light's 6 base and takes out all of the stuff in the center of the map. Tanks near the Command Center prevent Violet from pushing further though. Hallucinated Arbiters fail to recall at 4, too.

Violet has almost no ground army left.

You are joking right? +1 armor vs goliaths/mass turrets does nothing plus his last 2 recalls, the ones done WITH the upgrades have failed.

Violet's abandoned his Carrier switch (if he was even intending it - maybe he was just looking to upgrade his Arbiters the entire time).

Violet has one mining base and is distance mining from center, whereas Light has 2 mining bases left.

He is overhyped to a level he isn't because he CAN make it there- he just never fullfills it. His own fault.

Um, yes, I'm dead serious. The Recalls that he has managed to succeed with have always barely gotten through. You're saying that they would have gotten through if he hadn't mitigated that damage?

Light's push down the bottom of the map is taken out again by some nicely placed Storms. Violet is taking the center of the map again. His army production isn't as bad as I previously expected.

Violet pushes into Light's reminaing base and takes out all the tanks there at the cost of the rest of his ground army. The base still stands though, but Light no longer has tanks.

Some Goliaths are putting fire onto Violet's center Nexus, but some Zealots come and take out Light's stuff there. The Nexus lives.

Light mines out his 6 expansion, but he's still putting pressure on the center expansion. He almost manages to take it out with pure Vulture, but Dragoons come in and take out the Vultures that are attacking.

Violet is producing a very Templar heavy army, whereas Light is producing very Vulture-heavy.
