Why did that game seem just terrible and extremely low-level despite Modesty still being a decent pro-gamer? | ||

It's obvious he should always have some army ready for drops, he should have overlords spread, he should have way more Zerglings vs drop instead of Lurkers because of the micro, and that he should wait until the tank begins unsieging before attacking with Lurkers. Why did that game seem just terrible and extremely low-level despite Modesty still being a decent pro-gamer? Modesty is only good at ZvZ lol | ||

ENDING I HAVE SEEN. un freaking believable scourge sniping micro... garrghhh but honestly that game was the biggest epic fail from a progamer I have seen. You force your opponent to mine off one base and make him build around 30 turrets. AND THEN LOSE??? How did you ever get your license??? I think flash caught on to what modesty was doing, which was heavy 2 hatch muta as usually flash skimps on turrets. Modesty had like 17 drones total or smth. Flash managed to hold off and then shit hit the fan for modesty. | ||

Because Flash was in a losing position but Modesty made the classic mistake of pissing away his advantage through overaggression. | ||

Point is, it's not his role to win against Flash. He's got a more specific role than most progamers and we was way way outside of it here. | ||

Hell, he even took some of them out. It was pretty obvious that Flash wasn't going to attack anytime soon. Modesty could've droned up then, but he didn't. Instead, he made mutas and suicided them all into those turrets... | ||

He probably practices his ZvT army control as much as I do. Point is, it's not his role to win against Flash. He's got a more specific role than most progamers and we was way way outside of it here. He actually stated he practises hard. God damnit, why do I still like him? | ||

It has nothing to do with aggression, it was stupidity and a total lack of gamesense, I believe. That's something a B- foreigner should do, I don't know how a progamer can make such a huge gamesense mistake. =S | ||

He could have either droned up or switched to a round or two of lings. No raxes, no fac, and very few marines, but like 30 turrets. Instead modesty just stuck with mutas, because thats the zvz thing to do. | ||
