Tastosis mentioned during the cast last week going Lurkers isn't that great. Their logic made more sense to me than yours. Action goes lurkers and loses, so...

Damn. That same push, I am spamming sunkens.

He needed 5 sunks more to hold that.

If you have 4 bases. You can spam sunkens vs a just getting a third toss.

Very nice game from Action. Right at the end Rain finally got the shuttles to drop the HT but it was too late.

you mean on 3? i think those just went up there when the main army cleared the way.


Two drops. One on 3 and one on the middle of the map 4´ish base.

The shuttles were shown on camera ;-)

That match was pretty much a BO win. Good job by Rain, but that aside, he doesn't look sharp.

A pro gamer did the same build I found on my own for this matchup on this map this week.

I'm cool with my logic.

And calling that a build order win is stupid. This isn't sc2.

This had multiple levels of back and forth. And there was no clear order win.

Rains armys was stronger in one place. Action was spread thin and under defended.

Sick game 3. I take back what I said about 3rd place matches. Rain and Action both played quite well. Action's reactions to dodge storm drops all the way until the end was insane.

AttackZerg, I don't know who you are but you sound like a noob. Don't care about your appeal to authority. Try some reason bro

Poor Action, he was playing this very well but Rain deserves his praise for the amazing storm placements. He got drones running and coming back perfectly.

But if you're Action... is your game-plan really to go toe to toe with Rain in a drawn-out macro game.. He's playing pretty damn well, but it's clear that Rain has the upper hand. Confidence (or the lack thereof) must be at play methinks.

Why not? Action's macro is good enough. He has been manouvering is army well enough and I reckon that a proper dodge of those storms would leave Action in a good place for this match, after getting that much templar/reaver/archon.

It would be hard but it was still going strong before the storms.
