Mutas are out and manage to take out a few Marines and they take out a couple of Vultures that Light sends around the map.

Shine is taking his 3rd at 9 o'clock.

Valk out for Light, who has enough Turrets to defend against Mutas. Engineering Bay is upgrading, and Light is adding Barracks.

Hydraliisk Den is up for Shine, who now has 4 hatcheries running.

Mines are upgraded for Light's Vultures. He proceeds to min strategic spots around his base, but they're taken out by the Mutalisks overhead.

Shine adds his Queens Nest.

Light goes up to 4 Barracks and is adding his Academy right now. He also has 3 Valkyries with his army.

Shine has Lurkers being made and starts burrowing them on top of ramps leading towards his base. His Mutalisk/Scourge force are flying around. He starts his Hive, as well.

+1 weapons finishes for Light's MnM army. He loses a Valkyrie to Scourge but manages to deter the rest of the Mutalisk force.

Light's force goes to put pressure on the 9 expo, but Shine has Lurkers positioned there already.

Shine's Hive is finished, but no hive tech buildings are seen. His Mutalisks are pressuing Light's mostly-defenseless base now.

Light pushes into Shine's 9 expansion but is deterred there.

Light has his first Vessel out and is seeking to take his own 3rd at 3.

Shine finishes his Defiler Mound and manages to snipe one of Light's Vessels. He's also taking his mineral only expansion.

A Zergling scouts Light taking his 3 expansion.

Vessels and Marines try to move into Shine's 9 expansion but they're forced out by Lurkers and Mutas. Light is increasing his Vessel count steadily by protecting them from Scourge, though.

Defilers are in action for Shine. He lays a Swarm but doesn't manage to kill anything while losing a ton of Scourge.

Light irradiates what's remaining of Shine's Mutalisks and pushes into the 9 base. He kills the Lurkers while the Defiler isn't there and manages to barely take out the Hatchery before his army is killed.

Meanwhile, Shine sends a group of Lurkerling to prevent Light from taking his own mineral only.

Light's pretty much going to end up macroing Shine to death if this keeps going on.

Shine trades 8 Scourge for one Vessel, but then manages to snipe another one with some Hydras. The Lurkers and Defilers at Light's 3rd are still there and manage to take out some MnM before being irradiated.

Light has two Dropships, but they're spotted and sniped by Shine's Hydra/Lurk/Defiler/Ling army, which manages to snipe both of them before they drop anything.

Shine sends that force to Light's 3rd at 3 and forces it to lift and all the SCVs to run. He's meanwhile retaken his 9 base.

A nice Plague goes off on a number of MMF of Light, but they take out the force before dying.

Light has 3 tanks and his Vessels defending his natural/3rd choke and Shine is unable to push up even with the help of swarm.

Light irradiates some Defilers, but not before getting a Vessel sniped and the rest of them plagued. He pushes into Shine's 9 base but is deterred by Lurker/Ling/Hydra reinforcements. Another Plague goes off on Light's army.

Light seeks to retake his 3 base and has those previously mentioned 3 tanks defending it. He's also floating a CC back to his mineral only.

Light continues to fly his Vessels around and irradiate what he can, but often gets his Vessels sniped by Hydras as a result.

Shine realizes that Light is on equal bases with him and tries to take the 12 expansion and the 8 expansion, but Light scans the 8. With only 1 Defiler and 3 Lurkers defending it, it should go down.
