Also those ling drops on sieged tanks were hilarious. Even if that were true, it'd be better to bring some support vultures or goliaths. Pure tanks just doesn't work against zerg. he had vults but good point on the Goliaths. In fact he had like 4 vessels and a bunch of Goliaths at his base didn't he?
Not really, his unit composition was mostly tanks and less than 10 goliaths. A lot of the time he had no real method of dealing with units that got close.
Either way, Light was completely boned after letting Effort get so many expansions because he's not particularly good at the turtling style nor is he particularly fantastic at mech. Compared to Sea's and Flash's game on PR, his mech was a whole league worse than those two.

This is Light we're talking about.
|
Light going for a 4rax before factory opening, by the looks of it.
|
first 2 medics ready for light, 3rd rax being added
lings running around outside light's nat - 7 rines 2 medics ready to push them back
oh, creep at effort's nat was cancelled before and just started again?
4th rax for light
mnmn4 move out - about one group, effort's speed lings trying to whittle them down but can't
|
4rax build for light, he's beaten Effort with this before, Effort went guards on Outsider.
|
Effort has to be careful here, he might get ran over by the break.
|
4 rax from Light to be aggressive against Effort's 3 hatch muta. Should be some fun micro battles.
|
light adding turrets to his nat but none so far in th emain
effort with 2 sunkens 1 creep at his nat, still on 2 base
light sending a lone firebat to 1.5, while drone just slightly ahead of it
first mutas are out!

When I first read this, I thought you said "the best ZvT map in the world," and I was really confused.
|
MnM thinking about moving out, but the threat of a ling backstab keeps him in his nat for a little while.
Effort taking his 3rd at 9, and sending his lings to 1 to kill the firebat there.
Edit: Nevermind, not taking the 3rd there. Drone was just hiding.
|
drone heads towards 2.5 instead - did it see the firebat behind it?
mutas flying around the middle of the map, 3 sunkens 2 creeps at effort's nat now, den being added
mutas pick off an scv sent out to scout

Are you implying that Light will not choke? I expect both Effort and Jaedong to advancec tbh

Light caught with his pants down! Loses a lot of ScVs! However trying to break into Effort's base!
|
effort's mutas enter the main mineral line where 2 turrets weren't even done - scvs run
light trying to bust the 5 sunkens with another on the way
effort bringing his mutas back, drones being brought forwards 2 sunekns gone so far
lings rushing into light's main
|
Balls of steel Light balls of steel.
|
Effort goes in and does a lot of damage to Light's main with mutas.
Light goes for a sunken break!
Effort pulls all his drones, mutas coming back but they're slightly too late
|
wow this game is so oldschool
|
sunken bust but hatch is still there
|
wow, he actually broke the sunken line...
|
all the sunkens broken - now just some mnm left fighting the mutas at effort's nat - effort decides to kill drones instead
all the rines killed and now the 5 remaining medics are muta food
wow light has a very reduced scv count in his main
mutas now heading back towards light's bases
