I am wondering how often this works for ggaemo as it didn't even look difficult for someone like Shuttle to just finesse that contain. Just make reavers, click on the static defense occasionally while keeping up with some macro.

Well Shuttle was very patient and made it look easy, if he tried to break out earlier or didn't get 2nd robo, it would have looked very different

Edit: WTH is this map

Good answers to the above

Yeah, patience and solid decision making made Shuttle shine in that contain game

Barracks is looking so solid in TvP

I don't get how Barracks won his games. Shuttle had good openings and then looked helpless everytime he got pushed.

Oh, Barracks saying he asked Flash for help and apparently he gave Barracks all the strategies tonight

Hand of God was in play here

everyone knew that when he pulled out all of flash's old tricks

bunch of turrets
14cc
double armory

big thanks to his old KT sunbae-nim for helping though.

Except 2007-2008, I've never seen Flash used 14CC

But he used to choose 8 Rax vs Zerg at Electric Circuit map with 100% winrate so many games. Usually every game took less than 10 minutes, I thought WTF are pro gamers doing, how prevent this?!

In StarCraft has some build orders are so strong, safe. They are not all-in clearly: 8 Rax, 16 CC, 9 pool, 3 hatch muta, 12 nexus, 2 gates into nexus...

I guess Shuttle got out of shaving his eyebrows at least

The DT drop was the really killer for ggaemo. He lost so much mining time and some drones that he couldn’t compete when Shuttle was ready to bust out. Game snowballed once Shuttle got that advantage.

Shuttle's PvT was weirdly off today. His engagements were just awful after working himself into decent positions. Especially that first game. That engagement where he was maxed vs a 130 army from Barracks was just awful. I think he lost nearly two control groups of Zealots just a-moving them into mines. Tragic.

Rax is cheating by asking help from FlaSh, nevertheless I really liked his gameplay, especially aggression. Shuttle made too many shuttles? I like the idea but his execution wasn't enough.
