I see a ling-proof wall-in going up. I think Canata might be going for Fantasy's build. Chances are they practiced it together.

Yea well, even allin has good timing and bad timing.

Attacking someone when he's not in formation is hella good timing.


lol? how is happening to run into kal in the middle of the map exceptionally good timing


Listen well: In PvP good formation can save you units in a head on fight.

Reavers 2-shot dragoons, but if they can be made to fire just once fewer, that makes the world of difference in a PvP. That's what Best's timing did to Kal's reaver heavy army. He took out his knockout punch.

I'm not even a fan of skt, but I've seen this kind of timing from best once too many already. Give the guy his due mofo.

Didn't Kal move out before he saw BeSt attacking? It's easy to talk from a spectator perspective with hindsight bias helping you. Maybe Kal was worried that BeSt could even up the game with a good HT drop, and wanted to attack him while he was dealing with the DT. It would lower his chances of him noticing the DT, and if he did, he wouldn't be able to micro his army very well. Even if the fight broke even, Kal would storm way ahead and just end it.

Or just wait, whatever.

at that point in the game best's only option after losing all of those probes is to attack and go all in, i would have expected kal to realize this and play safe in order to ensure a victory

Looks like Canata has been studying fantasy's games

I don't think July is prepared for this MU at all.

Canata with 6 vults or so roaming the map while July gets 2 hatch hydra. Vults take out a lot of drones and sneak into July's main. Destroying even more drones.

Lurks look like the better option, just because you need hydra//scourge to fend off the valks anyway, and muta get eaten by the valks
