Mutas simply don't care about goon shots when sniping HTs. Storm can also easily be dodged or hit your own units. The HT snipe was just icing on the cake. At that point they were on equal supply and 2 to 4 bases. Game was already lost. The question is how did it go to that state. | ||

A ling run by that killed probes at the beginning or something? Snow being unable to get any overlord kills or any decent damage with zealots. 1 of the 2 DTs killed 1 drone... | ||

No, 8 lings preventing scouting, fast hydras to contain, lots of cannons, forge sniped before upgrade, then Snow tries a speed zealot attack, but they mostly die to hydras. And then SK can comfortably power. | ||

We only ever got to t>>z>>p>t. Or, we do an island map season which is completely p favoured. I don't see a single "new" great P player, like soma or speed. It's completely stale. | ||

But then if you cancel your cannons then things like game 1 happen lmao. | ||

The question is how did it go to that state. Whether it's icing on the cake isn't really relevant to what we see time and time again. Goon/Zeal has 0 chance vs mass hydra. HTs or Reavers can't be sniped unpunished, nor can sairs be sacrificed unless P is miles ahead and can use that psi better as ground units. | ||
