but the battles were all mediocre. Sea did not use his army particularly well. And great used his ground army in a horrifically bad manner.

He needed to defend the 9 o'clock island with his life, and he just didn't do it.

Any game where the Terran secures as many bases as Sea did is usually gg for the Zerg. The fact that great managed to come so close to winning really is remarkable, and that was reflected in the game. And this isn't like a Flash vs Action-style "Aww, that's so cute, the Zerg tried so hard"; I was seriously worried for Sea at several points in the game.

In a mech TvZ, Zerg armies are going to be suicided. That's the nature of it. But great actually managed to break Sea's defense at several points, making the game exciting to the very end.

@ everybody who is complaing that great was just throwing away his units:

It's not that easy to micro every single unit when you are simultanously dropping, being dropped, attacking and harrassing with guardians.
Also he tried to break Sea's defence twice with a 200 supply army, but just couldn't go all the way against the 3-3 mech army. How's that throwing away your units!? Should have great just kept them
in his base?
And did you really miss that great successfully harrassed Sea's economy all the game. For most of the game Sea could mine from only half his min lines because at the other bases there were either lurkers, lings, hydras or guardians.

I don't know what else you want...

defending 9 would have helped a lot, but it wouldn't have necessarily given him a victory - sea had 4, 5, and 6 all full of minerals and great had a depleting 12 and 3, along with the fresh 9.

great's window of opportunity was when he had 4 or 5 mineral bases running along with all of his gasses, but all he did was throw his units away in small groups rather than assemble an effective attack.

Yeah except Sea didn't SECURE that many bases. They were all really vulnerable and a good coordinated attack by great would have won him the game. He could have dropped the production facilities pretty much all game long.

I liked the game because there were a couple of good battles where great synchronized the attack with swarms and plagues.

Also, it seemed to me a back and forth game. After getting 5 expos, and seeing how great does nothing for like 2 minutes, I thought terran has this game. But great managed to come back and almost win the game. Seems like the thrown units in the last 5 minutes of the game wasn't a good idea. And that 9-o'clock expo. He had it. Felt kinda sorry, he threw the game away.

sure it's not easy, that's why these players are supposed to be pros.

And great did stop mining more a few times and there were a few effective attacks, but it was the uncountable OTHER attacks with mere handfuls of units thrown into the mech wall that cost him.

it WAS back and forth...because of terrible play on both sides.

Well, let's hope "Pretty" can bring some entertainment today, because I haven't been entertained so far.

I liked how Sea's Supply count was always around 100-130. Great did a good job reducing that. I really felt Great's guardians didn't do much as he had hoped as the guardians failed defend his island expos or deny/kill 4oclock enough
