losing drones to DT does not alert, does not show on mini map, the only way to see it it's to notice while it is happening. Effort failed in properly having spotting points for air drops, so he could see the red dot before the DT is dropped

You can hardly blame someone losing drones to a DT. It is one of the easiest things to happen.

Strange people.

What's up with the trend of overrreacting when forumers point out pros' mistakes? It was a mistake to not spot it earlier, even if it's effectively hard to spot.

Where is the overreaction? Did I insult anyone?

My point is: Missing a DT killing Drones happens easily. To spot it is very hard. It depens a lot on luck.

So someone treating it as if it was a "huge blunder" ist rubbish.

He just does mass hydra and wins, lol. What am I watching? Just macro up and go? What was Rain thinking? That was so unbelievably one-sided.


He must have messed up some macro cycles. With those upgrades and with 15 extra zealots in the big fight ( he had 1900 minerals floating) would have been huge. Now he barely survived that due to storm.


He barely survived? He didn't survive. And he only got that far because of those storms against no micro that killed like 3 control groups of hydras. He would have barely survived with that extra round of zealots but that's it.


Just rewatched and yes he did survive.
The first big attack he survives farily well.
At the second big attack Rain also survives the push at his min only, but barely, even though he has 1600 minerals banked. With those as slots either coming running as reinforcements or even incorperated he would have been able to get his froth up probably.

He lost all the templars during the first attack, 15 more zealots would not have changed the fact he had no storm left, it would have delayed the end for 30 seconds at best.


Zealots with the number of goons is really strong against hydras until you get critical mass, especially with the upgrades. I think he would have plenty of time to get 2 or 3 new templars.

What a boring game. That was just disgusting zerg play. Rain did almost everything right and still lost. I hate that kind of zerg play.

Close. Feels like Rain needs a faster Templar archive? Maybe add 2 gates then archive then a third?

Relax magic I know EffOrt is a good player. I just thought he'd have a spore or something in his main. But at high levels when so many things are happening I can understand it's hard to do everything at once. chill

Good to see EffOrt bounce back from game 2. I thought Rain might be able to hold there but those hydras where just to much.
I can see why protoss would veto that map.

Other than the early zealot harass that you can do with a gateway expand, is there another window of opportunity for harassing Zerg that Rain could be using here before the Hydra contain/bust timing takes place? Does he need to play more aggressive, or does he just need to better read that the attack is coming?

"Why are the pros so good? etc"

It happens every LR, someone tells us the pros are so good and the game losing mistake was actually a very small mistake etc

Don't worry you're not virulent like some can be. It's just I don't understand the reasonning behind this.

Another ultra noobish game from rain, whats the purpose of teching into storm when you have hydras at your natural? Not only that but he didnt rebuilt his forge right aways , he didnt attacked hydras with his zealots he just ran them around to make them as useless as possible. to me it looked like he wanted to lose that game on purpose.

He did alright. EffOrt just hit a strong timing before storm finished.

Isnt it proven better to tech to reavers when you are sure that you have to hold hydra busts?
