Yeah, we saw the same in IEM.
The sad thing is, SVCs were already nerfed because of this, but the problem here is that the cost / reward especially against Zerg is always in T's favour. 10 SVCs on top of an army that Z already struggles to defeat just spells out doom. And even if Z ends up defending, it will only be barely and T can still bounce back relatively easy since Z has no way to attack him back.

If he hadn't fought with Drones, the Lair would've died and it would have been GG. He needed to mass spine crawlers above his main ramp and fake that he was trying to save his natural and try to gain time... what he did really wasn't a good thing to do. Also his Roaches needed to focus the Marauders, he was just a-moving which makes him auto-target workers. Was just poor play.
Although mules are just absolutely ridiculous, Terran can support like 4 barracks off 2 bases with 0 workers on minerals because of them.

Sac the nat and then fight with all mutas, roaches, and lings together at the top of the ramp. In that case I think Slush would have come out ahead.
How? Zerglings need a surround to do anything and the Roaches were going to be destroyed no matter what, if Slush pulled back the T could literally just A-move his way up the ramp with even less resistance because the Speedlings would've done less damage and the rest of the bio army would have even more time and health to take things out while the Mutalisks tried to clean it up.

Two orbital commands is like 15 workers. How is it not all in lol? He kind of killed all of Slush's drones, that's why he won. Yes, Terran beats the other races when neither has any workers. The races are different, if you want to complain complain about the push actually working.
How times have changed. In SCBW, killing workers were like hitting a jackpot. Nowadays, terrans can instantly bolster their army by bringing in a ton of scvs. Im not talking about balance just how mules changed an integral part of starcraft.

All these "tip top" Terran players:
-Drewbie -QXC -LastShadow -LZGamer -Painuser
Clearly on the same level as:
-Dimaga -Whitera -IdrA
I think there's a pretty legitimate reason all there are more "tip top" Terran players than Protoss/Zerg players .. It's because the Terran race is easier.

SjoW vs. SeleCT TTOne vs. Socke
Coming up.

I agree, but if I was Lastshadow, I would just take the free natural and pull back without comitting to the attack. Sure my income would suffer because of the lack SVCs mining, but I'd take a free natural from Zerg anyday over it. Especially since I wouldn't be losing any SVCs.

weird, couldn't get the stream to work on firefox but it immediately worked on IE, looking forward to seeing some good games!

Looks like Nadagast finally got taken out of winners by Kiwikaki.

<_< Slush is in the losers' bracket. He can still do it.

He's definitely top tier in SC2. Not the same tier as IdrA/Morrow/Dimaga obviously, but definitely up there with EG and Root guys.
