The muta/ling part makes sense, except he never made a single muta lol (until much later in the game). I think he was expecting fast corsair since he was scouted 2 hatch, so that was the idea of scourge. However Mini big brained him and went for +1 timing attack instead. | ||

The game is so developed and perfected that a lucky (can we call it like this?) good start almost always translates into victory Has always been the case, but fans tend to read too much into it. Only when there is a clear difference in skill level of the two players that the better one can overcome the early BO disadvantage. Most of the times the early BO/spawn/map advantages just snowball into later victory. The losing player tends to get criticized for playing terribly or whatever, especially when we look back past seasons' scores and only see a number like 4-0 or 4-1 and don't remember how the games actually played out. | ||
