The TL:DR version of this match is pretty much:
Violet expos to 8 expos while hiya sits in on 3 massing tanks. Hiya finally moves out of his base for the first time at 17 minutes, with a massive terran ball (insert "imba" comments here), begins sieging Violet's nat and other expos, establishes map control, takes a 4th expo at 3 oclock.
Violet loses some expos, but still outproduces Hiya by 2-4x at any point during the match.
Eventually, Hiya's massive army breaks down (piece by piece), and is unable to be rebuilt at the same speed that Violet's forces are able to tear it down. Hiya loses map control.
Hiya loses his last mining expo.

Holgerius, how can you like Violet and hate Movie? They are like twins.
Pretty useful skill to have. Won Violet the game and KT the series.

If anything TvP has been T sided as of late.

You just need a stubborn terran who refuses to expand and also refuses to kill key-expos with 10 gates (11 o'clock) when he has the chance.
Very good management and storms by Violet I think. But Hiya just fucked up.
|
Yo, I heard storms are pretty good in PvT.
Better than timing kamikaze recalls into terran's bases before he has even moved out.

no it's just a useful talent toi have
|
Pretty weird strategy by hiya, some sloppy micro/macro in the late game by violet (still great storms though). Not the best of games.
|
violet never "came back" while his army might have been lost a few times in the game, he always had an overwhelming economic advantage and with his ~20 or more gates, allowed him to rebuild his armies instantly
only until late game when his bases started mining out was he in any sort of danger - but hiya also had very little resources at that time
|
KT, I missed your 3-0 wins. It seems like it's been forever since you 3-0'd a team
|
As an Oz fan, I am very, very sad now. T_T

I don't know if I'd go that far.

I believe they can do more than just build templar and press storm.
|
Violet could have done a better job saving his expansions, a lot of the Nexus that were destroyed was unnecessary. It took a while for Violet to break off Hiya's containment despite the fact that Violet had the macro to do it.
|
I don't know if Hiya ever had the lead, but it was definitely close.
|
guys hiya couldn't finish the game because hes never been in such a situation before. normally when terran rolls out protoss just dies. hiya was like "wtf why hasnt he ge ge yet".

But then that push came and it was soooo strong! Luckily, Violet handled himself great. Part of it is that Hiya isn't Flash. Flash would shut down 4 bases in 1minute and go for the main no matter what ^^

This game so reminded me of Nada vs Jangbi.
The way lesser skilled player comes through because of storms.

No skills? Who are you? mb Stork? Show your skills pls and we compare LOL
Great game Violet

and to the guy that said it's imba, you have it backwards, terran is and always will be the most imbalanced race due to the 3/3 strength/turtling/tanks

Pretty good summation here.
