EPTReally glad that Mind made it! A while back, one of his only donors told him that he'll stop donating so losing in the Ro16 then must've been devastating. Also, he beat sSak and Shuttle really hard. Shuttle looked like he had no chance despite some stellar micro early on. Congrats to Bisu and Mind!

It's practically suicide when attacking into reavers. What? He had 6 marines, 2 vults, 5 tanks and two more were close to join the fight and he caught bisu with 4 goons, 2 zeas and a reaver on a shuttle on a favorable position of the map. If that was nothing special then... Not sure what to say. And it was not 'reavers'. It was one reaver. Two reavers are much better and much easier to micro there because they instantly kill a tank and you can just keep switching the reavers. taking one, dropping another and so on and so fort. Also, on why he didn't siege... That was a timing push. He wanted to get at the choke point to siege up. If he kept sieging Bisu would pick the furthest siege one by one. That'd be much easier. Also,Bisu would've time to macro. As you can see on my screen shot he had accumulated 1100+ minerals very early on the game, his newest gates weren't producing units. If mind delayed that Push he'd be ran over by Bisu's production, lose every tank and then be stuck with 3 bases trying to make tanks while also being forced to make liaths to deal with carriers. | ||

That was some amazing micro by Bisu, truly top notch. He managed to survive a situation that a lot of protoss players would lose imo. | ||
