The map doesn't seem cliffy enough to me for carriers? Maybe it is. Still no Katrina.
its kinda like hearth break ridge, and that was a good carrier map. but mind dictated the pace since he saw the carriers so early. lazy needed to take better engagements over cliffs and snipe more units but since he didnt do any of that he let the tank and goliath count grow until it was too late.

I think Rush was 100 percent hoping to catch Mind off guard with carriers rather than playing because the map was good for it.

artosis even said he got lucky with the scans... i don't tthink mind saw them so early
but i was thinking what if he just made 4 then switch to ground on 4 base ?

he wasnt lucky. he scanned the main and forward nat before and didnt see any kind of tech. he knew something was up. thats not luck lol artosis is so dumb.

Mind probably also was a bit concerned when he didn't see any observers floating in after the first two scans, though I don't actually know the timing of obs reaching main/nat for those builds on that map.

I can see the similarities, but it's not THAT much like Heartbreak Ridge. HBR had a central area that was small and was only accessed through tight corridors, with cliffs on every side of the central space. Crossing Field basically only has cliffs on the left and right sides of the central space and the ramps into it are broad. I remember on HBR Protoss could hop carriers from cliff to cliff, forcing Terran players to walk around constantly, and it doesn't look to me like anything like that is doable on Crossing Field.

The games tonight so far:
EffOrt putting in effort and wins.
Lazy has been lazy and makes lazy plays.
Mind has been using his mind, perhaps using too much of his mind by overthinking against Rush.
Rush rushed to doom drop and wins, then Rush rushed that push out a little too soon and gets stop lurked to death.
...
Yeah sorry, the games have been kinda lack-luster tonight ^_^;
Gotta entertain myself ya know?
Also found it funny how the players' names were kinda the opposite of each other: effort vs lazy, mind vs rush

Don't build Valks. My old eyes can't handle Remastered Valks.

EDIT: Ugh nvm as soon as I say that Mind takes out 12 o clock.
