It basically does the same thing as if Zerg went 2 hatch lair from the start (in which case Zerg sacrifices econ to get a tech advantage). An extremely delayed 2 hatch lair. The cannon rush really didn't cost much compared to how much he gained with it. Calm was completely allin with about 12 drones on minerals. If pure had made about 2-3 cannons per mineral line, he'd have almost certainly won. Even one per mineral line would have given him a decent chance to survive. He had none. | ||

He seemed able to get out a decent number of mutas, and on the other hand Pure had wasted so many resources on those pylon/cannons that he didn't have enough in his main when the mutas came. Um, the cannon attack gave Pure an advantage, not a disadvantage. He just blew it because he's an awful player. | ||

If Pure had made two Cannons in each min line you would have noticed.... Calm had no Drones and was dead except for this one possibility, really indefensible by Pure. | ||

How can you say something like this? How about, he spent 400 minerals to kill a 9000 mineral and 5000 gas expansion. What about now? | ||

An extremely delayed 2 hatch lair. The cannon rush really didn't cost much compared to how much he gained with it. Calm was completely allin with about 12 drones on minerals. If pure had made about 2-3 cannons per mineral line, he'd have almost certainly won. Even one per mineral line would have given him a decent chance to survive. He had none. Right, an extremely delayed 2 hatch lair against an extremely delayed Corsair. Same as a normal 2 hatch muta. Protoss doesn't just throw up 3 cannons in their min line every time they see 2 hatch lair. | ||

The rest have been just awful (like Shine vs fantasy, Calm vs Pure, Jaedong vs go.go, and so on). This OSL kind of blows. If there isn't some kind of amazing Calm vs Flash semifinal, or a full 5-game set of Flash vs Stork finals, this is probably the worst OSL I've ever seen. I'd say Flash v Jaedong today was a great/amazing game, just for Flash's perfect play. | ||

Arn't toss minerals worth relatively less than zerg minerals due to the fact that toss always has more probes and better econ on same # of bases? | ||
