Looks like a Reaper/Nitro pack opening from SarenS.

steppes is one of the dumbest maps atm. the base distances are simply unviable for competitive play.


totally agree with this. it just favours terran tank play so much. blizzard should really remove this from the ladder pool and tournaments should avoid using it.

I'm really, really surprised idra decided to attack right then and not let SarenS creep up slowly while idra's econ could get the ultras out.


Yea that's true
but one tank at your natural just shuts down the complete expansion. I think that was his thought process.


But he allowed it yesterday. He let his natural get sieged and die because he wanted to make sure he'd let his 3 bases get his army in shape. That's why I'm really surprised by it. Not really bad play by idra, but surprised he didn't sit back just a little while longer. Then again, tanks not overkilling with that good of a spread just ate his banelings up.

still idra simply made the wrong decisions at the end. no muta/roaches, not stalling for 1 minute for his ultras to aririve etc.

he had it midgame but threw it away vs very smart play by sarens



and ya ofc the map sucks... but thats what my mapbalance thread was about eh ~~

SarenS throws down another Rax, and a Bunker at the bottom of the main. The Bunker will finish.

SarenS had no choice. Idra's econ was miles ahead, if he didn't attack then he was going to lose to the inevitable ultras that would be up real soon.

Something weird just happened in the MadFrog-Tarson match, Tarson asked an obs to leave because he said they were causing lag. I thought this was a lan?

There is no LAN for SC2. It's played over Battle.net.
