Stork somehow holds his ramp, but I do not think he was mining much during that time - no attention to the offensive reaver, dunno if it still exists. Stork might be running out of mins for scarabs soon.

BackHo definitely has stronger economy now, his natural has 6-7 probes already, Stork is struggling to get a force together to hold his ramp against the next attack.

Lol Rotk is just like andromeda in PvP in expo count. I mean the min only can't be really counted as an island in this matchup--,-

Btw What is the reasoning behind BackHo's nickname (Black Ho' or his name comes to my mind only)

Stork has his island expo and now making his natural.

He's in a good position imo

Stork is on 3 gates now, with double reaver, Backho has 4 and finally obversers on his own. Probably Stork can consolidate and use his reaver advantage.

Stork drops his reavers towards his natural and manages to expel the goons stationed there. He will put up his 2nd expansion now. Backho getting reavers himself at the moment.

The supply gap of about 25 that Backho generated is dwindling, so Stork is definitely catching up here. He has shuttle speed now and still two reavers to pressure BackHo with.

BackHo sends out his first reaver for a drop, he is still ahead but actually one expansion down now. He has shuttle speed too and drops Stork's natural, doing decent damage. Yet another drop at the defenseless inside main expansion where ALOT of probes die. Yet another scarab at the mainbase- that reaver was golden.

16 kills on the reaver when is succumbs to goons.

Backho still containing Stork with a mass of goons, Stork goes to break it with 2 reavers and a goon force but gets repelled for the moment, choosing another path around the waiting goons.

Backho moves in, exploiting Stork's goon position and manages to get a reaver. In the end, Backho has to retreat due to still 2 reavers alive and firing.

Yet another fight near Backho's natural, and stork is pushing on and on. He even is ahead in supply now and he does NOT lose his reavers until very late into the push. Backho pulls probes to fend off the last squad of goons at his natural. Stork is sending forces in and still has 5 goons there.
