Hmm, free making some questionable choices; I think Light can win taking this chance.

Arb may be out, but may take some time before it has enough energy.

11 gates for free, did i count that right? i guess that's what you can do off of 4 base econ, but light has moved halfway across the map. Free needs to max quiclkly and be able to take down this ball, or else things are going to get ugly. I guess that he's waiting for his first arb, and now he decides to push without it

Free just running his goons around, trying to defuse mines

Light attacking Free's 4th at 1 o'clock with a smal lamount of tank/vult

WHOA FREE NOW ATTACKING THE TANK/VULT SET UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MAP

Lots of blue goo again, Free forced to back off again

free might just be able to crush this push, but light barely manages to keep the middle of the mpa. free is going to have a really really fast regen rate though, and he needs to make sure that he keeps his fourth, which is right now being assaulted by 2 tanks

lots of spider mines, looks like free dosen't have enough obs? wonder why. this first arb is really doing a good job for free and an amazing stasis catches about 7 tanks unable to fire.

Free will probably win like every protoss that's behind randomly does.

light is going to try to push to make sure that his 7 tank group dosen't get taken out, and free with no econ damage yet has his 11 gates pumping. Light needs to expand again soon if he wants hope of being able to keep up with this arb tech protoss, but I don't think that he's going to be able to

Free's macro was so strong that game that it overcame his...questionable attacks.

(And yes, map imba etc. etc.)

Light tried his best - the game went back and forth, as each countered each other with expos and good defense/offense.

Light with a little more vults (if he slacked in macro) at mid would've won the game for him.

good stasis, good pushbreak by free, and he delayed light enough in the middle of the map to allow his fourth base and arb tech to get running. You also forget his decent reaver, and his ability to break light's wall.

Light didn't play poorly, free played better.
