Luxury is screwed. He'd better 4-pool the next two games.
Brood War is alive and well.

i think lux was relying on the pincer to work

he knew the 3 tanks would be exposed while cliffing and he watned to get them with his lurks and take out leta's whole army

once that attack failed, the game was over

Luxury was scared because if his lurker attack failed, he would lose. However, he failed to realize that if he does nothing to that ball and not attack, he will lose anyway.

He didn't even pincer properly, he only attacked from one side... so if that was his intention he did it really badly..

Lol wtf was that? Omg that was bad. And Guards? Didn't he learn the JD lesson - whenever a Zerg goes Guards they loose. Thought he'd try a pincher that might have worked better.

That is probably one of the worst ZvT's I have ever seen from a zerg.



Basicly leta completely changed the timing for a mnm/3tank/sci push and changed luxurys timing with early acad -> sunkens+lings.... ect so that luxury ended up to passive without alot of lair units and late tech.

I still can't figure out why he didn't try and pincer ... long before his nat awas dead ... the mutas woulda soaked up all the damge until the 16-18 lurkers got in place ...

You haven't seen a lot then
but yeah, I somewhat agree. Manifesto has a good point too. There was no way he was going to do gamechanging damage with those guardians. fine, he stopped mining and took out a fair amount of scvs and marines, but he traded that dmg for his natural hatch and all control of his ramp.
I thought Lux had a GREAT flank set up when Leta moved in initially with those 2 vessels and 3-4 tanks. If he had morphed those guardians at home or even moved in with flank and simply mutas, that could have broken that push, bought time for Hive tech and kept him on 3 gas.

The idea to move out and morph guardians outside Leta's nat with 4 tanks and a huge army outside your nat seems devious at best.
Anyway, solid play from Leta - GG

Luxury is shaking his head before game 4, he knows Leta is just better than him
another 5pool anyone? (I'm yet to check which map is coming up.)
edit: Carthage? Definitely 5pool

Yeah, definitely something inspired by the Guardians from his win over Flash a while back. Luxury is in trouble and I'm going to look stupid. Wonder why he's struggling so much, he has Flash as a practice partner, I was at least expecting it to be a close set.

Well Carthage is supposed to favor Zerg as far as I know so I doubt hes 5 pooling again.

On Troy, which is a far better map for guardians - especially when you're at top right and the terran is at bottom right (generally if the terran is along above/below you in position and not to the sides)

clearly lux was afraid of the blob, thinking he would have no chance to break it. I cant fathom why he thought that other than plain nervousness but there is NO other reason for a good Zerg to morph ur guardians at your opponents nat in that situation. Its a desperate all-in move. Every nub Zerg knows that if you go fast guards zvt, u use them to kill his first push and secure enough time for defiler/ultra to make u invincible.
