nah, if you saw the minimap he had units sniping the nexus at the 3rd and the natural was down when he started moving back.

and the probes there were either dead or relocated to the main.

I feel that attack on Last third in the middle of the game might have set mini back to much. Just a messy attack.

Awesome game over all though.

man if mini had just targetted down that CC the first attack he would've won it so easily... the cc was like down to 200 hp and he had like what ... 10 goons there? and he just retreats... that was such a big mistake... im surprised Artosis and Tasteless dont mention it...

He had like 10 goons, but Last also repaired with 6+ scv's until MIni sniped some scv's and then he wasn't able to kill it afterwards. Or do you mean when it was floating over the ramp? I don't quite remember the unit situation there.

Good to see Sea can still bring it. Cause every time I check his stream it's anything but BW. God I love TvT.

Edit: + Show Spoiler +
I feel Sea is starting to slow down in game 2.


Edit 2: cause i don't want to double post. Damn are you guys asleep. Guess TvT does that to some people.

+ Show Spoiler +
I feel Sea is getting tired or something. Didn't check that bottom exp for ages. Could've easily shut that down way earlier.

Was floating over the ramp, were only 2 scvs there... and like 1-2 tanks i think... he could have killed it so easily with barely any losses....
Shame sea lost... Not a big fan of him, but he should've had that last game =[

Begh, I can't believe Sea lost those last couple of games. Every time he seemed to be so ahead and then it all falls apart so quickly. I guess sharp has always been this sort of unstoppable aggressive machine that just keeps churning and pushing under the surface and eventually he will always break out.

Anyway, really good games tonight. Looking forward to tomorrow

A terran who wasn't flash actually beat a decent protoss? good stuff.... although i think mini has a propensity to tilt, just like how last chokes offline. Makes my wonder why terrans don't go 2 fac more.

Sharp made a firebat with the barracks he floated into seas main. It didn't do anything though. Just funny seeing one in a TvT. I believe it was the final game on Fortress SE. Guess he thought he could get a scv kill or two.

They do. At first they talk about how Mini could kill it if he dived on it. Then Artosis is about to talk more about it when it's low on health, just as Tasteless comments on the zealots defending against the vulture drop. And then they remark that the CC is still alive afterwards. The was a lot going on and they had to try to comment on it all, so saying they don't mention it is honestly ungrounded.

I do agree Mini could've taken it though, but it seems as though his attention was too divided between dropping Last (you can see the blue square being at Last's mineral line, rather than at the natural), and defending against the vultures in his own main, to really see the opportunity and take it. Might also have overestimated how many tanks were defending, having some sort of "something is getting attacked, better pull them back"-reflex.

Could change a lot if he'd taken it, though! It was really, really low on health and would've take like one volley from the group
It's ok. I still love you <3

Dam that Last vs Mini game 4 was absolutely insane. Last should have won with the first push but Mini held on and even took the lead after those reaver drops. I felt the dropship in the main kept Last in the game. He killed enough probes that Mini couldn't rebuild as fast as he wanted to.

Sea really seemed tilted by the end. Very early gg in game 3, and I don't think he really had to do that crazy push in game 4. I was kinda distracted while watching though.

man if mini had just targetted down that CC the first attack he would've won it so easily... the cc was like down to 200 hp and he had like what ... 10 goons there? and he just retreats... that was such a big mistake... im surprised Artosis and Tasteless dont mention it...

Ok, haven't seen it back, but I feel when they later 'looked back' on the game they should have definitely mentioned that as it was a game defining moment. If he killed the CC there it would've been GG and it would have been sooooo easy. Really by far his biggest mistake that game.

Ok after watching it back both Artosis and Tasteless didn't say anything about killing that CC and it would've been soooooo easy... I feel they really overlooked that, but yea it did happen at the same time as the vulture drop. But it's without doubt the biggest mistake in the game and a game deciding one...

I really struggle to understand how you reached that conclusion. Got any link to the time stamp you're referring to? We might be thinking about different situations.

In the 4th game, Mini wasn't mining gas at 22:20. Just noticed that when the observer showed it. I wonder how long his nat gas wasn't being mined from. Though I think he put workers back into it a few moments later. I get the feeling he wasn't mining from that geyser for a while.
