That was a really good TvT. Some bad play/luck by Flash dropping ontop of mines about half way through almost lead to baby starving him out. Still great play on both sides.
Starving him out?
After Flash dropped Baby's early 3rd at 9 at the beginning of the game, Flash was always ahead by at least 1 mining base the entire game.

Baby played so beautifully. It looked like he was out of it from the start and there were many periods where he was behind by huge amounts of food, but he kept fighting back and evening the macro / getting his food count pretty close to Flash's through his awesome vulture harassment and expansion denying play. But in the end Flash's multitasking and macro was just too strong for Baby.
Still though, he showed a lot of potential here.

Flash was ahead in supply for nearly the entire game.
His expos were more secure too. A couple vultures every now and then doesn't threaten his economy.
|
that did look like a great TvT, will need to watch this for sure.
|
I guess Flash will break his elo record again

Ads for airlines never include Canada...Hah, shows how unimportant we are in the scheme of things.

if only flash didnt land on the mines for so many times, the game was over 10mins earlier. he was so ahead in all aspects. GOLDEN MOUSE GOLDEN MOUSE GOLDEN MOUSE!!!

btw, Flash probably just break his ELO high ? he was like 3 point behind before that game.

Still don't understand baby's opening (looked like 13cc, but in-base). floating it over cost the bo advantage.

Baby played really well
Food count is misleading in TvT seeing as how Vultures and Tanks are the same supply. That's why Baby was able to pull "even" at one point.
Still a really nice game by Baby.

the song at boesthius' stream is growing on me (at least the drum parts). I guess hearing it endlessly when watching streams does that.
pardon a noobie, but what song is this? >_<

Baby with quite a bit more APM than Flash. Like 50 more.
|
I wonder what else Flash needs to do. Maybe wear a hat that reads "Bonjwa."

it's time to watch a movie.

14cc inbase protects you from early marines since you can drill the entrance or ramp. he didnt expect flash to 14rx, 15 cc or whatever he did so he was going for the safe choice.

Interestingly, baby's turtling combined with his use of vultures for both mines and harass is a passable counter to flash's mass-drops-with-macro-advantage style. Flash was actually in danger there momentarily.
|
Yeah, that was a great game. I thought that Baby might come back for a while there. But those dropships really sealed the deal for Flash
gg.
But I think this game shows that Baby is really one of the best players at the moment, being able to take on Flash like that. (Even if it was a loss, it was a straight up game.) Of course there are one or two more games left, maybe Baby can come back. (Though I doubt it, it's just a distinct possibility.)
