815 is pumping straight mutas, while Mong is just massing turrets. Goliaths have range upgrade now. Mong can't move out of his base because the Goliaths will get destroyed by Mutalisks. Mong has... mines. A vulture sneaks by. Mong's mines take out a lot of 815's Zerglings, and the Vulture runs into 815's main and gets a Drone kill before dying.

Yep. Boxer transcends his actual play; his charisma and showmanship made Starcraft into something marketable, and really highlighted the fact that SC is a spectator sport, and the fans care a lot about the players and storylines themselves, not just the games.

Boxer is the living embodiment of all that is e-sports... the nostalgic genius plays coupled with his smile + swooning fangirls are why we go crazy over Boxer... not because we actually believe he is a force to be reckoned with anymore.

And his vult play. Caaan't forget that. Fucking badass.

815 expands to the bridge natural at 10 o'clock. Mong has a sufficient number of Goliaths to be able to take his natural safely again. 815 had to retreat his forces back to his base. Mong has a couple of Vultures laying mines around the map and testing 815's defenses. Starport is up, Control Tower is going up, Science Facility is going up as well. Mong trying to sneak another Vult around the backdoor but is spotted by 815's Overlord.

Mong pulling a super fail with his no units mech build. Lost his natural, so how's he going to come back from this?

Terrans in TvZ have this very strange affinity for massive comebacks.

Zergs manage it sometimes, but it seems that one good battle and bam Terran is back in. Zerg are rather vulnerable to this swing until hive tech. Hive tech zerg rapes.

Mong retakes his natural, but Zerg's third got up just now.

Mong tries a runby and!!! fails. He is using some nice vulture play though. Not sure how effective it really is.

Second armory is going up, +1 Attack is finished. Nothing seems to be researching in the Sci Facility, though. Vultures are still running around, being Vultures.

815 gets his first Evolution Chamber - he's still on Lair tech. Two Vultures go in and kill a Drone at 815's natural, and another Vulture goes in and takes care of two Drones at 815's new expansion. Vultures are just going around, harassing multiple areas at once. First Vessel is out.
