Best pushed into Kal's space and forced him to drop his reavers in a clump, which promptly got stormed to hell. His attack timing won him the game. EDIT: Shit, canata vs julllllllly~~~ no kal made a horrible decision to move from his safe position and he had terrible army positioning when the attack occurred | ||

I look to the right, and let's just say... July's outline didn't leave much to the imagination. | ||

Do you really think there's much luck at play in a straight up micro battle at this level? Whether Kal blew it or BeSt did especially well is irrelevant - either way, BeSt was the better player. Now, GO Canata! | ||

Yes, Kal's army positioning moving in there was bad. The decision itself to move in there was bad. I mean, he had just massacred all of BeSt's natural probes. That's a position where you want to sit back and macro up a huge army/add a lot of gates, defense, expansions etc, when your opponent will struggle to replace his probes. The entire decision by Kal to attack was bad (and gave BeSt a chance to counterattack before Kal's now superior economy could replenish his forces), except one small detail; it distracted BeSt from looking at his natural where the DT was. But I mean, that little detail did not justify attacking there. STILL, the amount of units BeSt threw into that fight was bloody sick. And the amount he streamed out afterwards, despite the huge loss in probes, was breathtaking. I'm astonished. | ||

No, but there is luck that your opponent happens to be expanding at the time you lose half your probes and are forced to allin. | ||
