effort pulls through with a good push into ruby's CC and Ruby's absolutely shocking control after taking out Effort's 3rd.

Long story short: Ruby starts off well, should have won, completely foiled effort's strategy, and then he suicides his whole army and Effort is like 'ok I will kill you then' and he does

Ruby did not need to go after the natural. He could just starve 2-gas zerg and play defensive map control.

Effort's dark swarm push into Ruby's nat was beautiful.

what you talking about

effort lost his third gas while trying to do a swarm counter which failed. Ruby was so ahead after killing effort's 3rd gas. All ruby needed to do was hold the center instead of suiciding 20 rines to lurks.

So time for a random mini story:

So Wednesday if you were around, you know I disappeared at the end of the match and the OP didn't get updated until about 5 or 6 hours later. I explained in the thread I had fallen asleep at the keys. So I didn't want that to happen tonight, so I went to bed around midnight and set an alarm for 4:30. The 4:30 alarm went off.. but I was disoriented and didn't remember why I set it so I rolled back over to sleep. Woke up again at 5:26 like "Uhh.. OH SHIT!"

Plan almost backfired on me

He split his army, letting Effort flank it. That army was dead once he couldnt reinforce it.

i watched almost all of ruby's tvz games and i have to say he always suicides rines to lurks. I know hes trying to be agressive and has good micro but wtf pick the right battles to fight in.
He has great tvz just why does he always do that.

No..you're supposed to move your flanked army back, with your reenforcements comming out and pincer the lurks that flanked you. Use matrix if necessary Or if you have time , like ruby did...you could siege and irradiate.

Ruby's real mistake was not getting a quick second port against fast hive and losing vessels. His vessel count was way too low.

commentators talking about how ruby should have brought his other troops in to fight other - he focused too hard on the troops at the nat

There is not a shadow of a doubt that EffOrt was taught defiler play by the Maestro himself. His Dark Swarms were absolutely perfect.
Actually the whole game reminds me of the old Savior : "Savior is pressed" "Savior loses an expansion" "OMG! Savior is about lo lose! "Savior pushes out wth DS/Lurk" "Savior owning the whole Terran army" "OMG!?! How did Savior come back from this?" "GG. Savior wins".

Congrats EffOrt. My LB is on you
You are lucky I don't have a banhammer
