Because that matchup is fair right?

Artosis won the major battles at the beginning of both games, but Drewbie just targeted all of his hatcheries and then built 40 missile turrets.

Artosis is not terrible.

AGREED.

those drops really suck

anyone have a replay of the 6 pool i missed it

He won the major battles, like letting 4 marines kill half the drones at his main and a tank get 15 kills? I dont think he is terrible at all but that sounds like a pretty rocky start.

Every terran that you see just sees uber confident in their matches against zerg unless they're playing idrA or Dimaga. Even TLO, who normally seems like a pretty mellow guy, said that he should realistically crush his zerg first round opponent in GSL. There's obviously an issue with the matchup and it goes beyond the early reaper cheese.

Artosis played that last game terrible, he saced 4 hatcheries to drewbies second big push. When he finally attacked drewbie he swept his army without losing a single mutalisk. That big overkill on the push means he could have gathered and attacked the push earlier and saved at least 2 of the expansions. Then he wouldnt be forced to allin attack move the mutalisks 3 minutes later.

Altho terran do kill buildings too fast.

Um. In both games Artosis was playing well up to a point. Shouldn't have wasted those mutas that easily all of a sudden... He seems to know very well what to do strategically, just makes small but crucial micro mistakes. I don't think he deserved to lose like this.

Artosis didn't play well but what he was arguing was it came down to unit positioning. If he were to send in when Drewbie had position on the low ground the tanks would kill or tank all the baneling damage and he would've lost the game right there. Artosis really wasn't in a position to send his stuff in until Drewbie had his tanks lagging behind while his mm killed the top hatchery. It's partially Artosis's fault for not spreading creep more aggressively and seeing where this army was coming from so he wouldn't get caught so out of position but I understand Artosis's frustration. It's still no excuse for suiciding all those muta though.

btw I also play toss, trying to be impartial here.

He went muta/ling/baneling.

What do you think he should have gone? Hydra?

I want to see Artosis (T) vs Drewbie (Z).

The Damage output against buildings of MMM is way too high and makes defending against drops and split armies nearly impossible. At least it forces you to play very defensively, because you can't defend these drops with spinecrawlers. Toss seems to have the same problem (i.e. Marauders eat a Nexus in seconds).
In both games Artosis had a nice build up and good armies, but then he lost his advantage and got teared apart. Maybe he was tired, it felt like he had a lack of focus. Nonetheless the outcome is what usually happens in ZvT, when you are not Dimaga or Idra.

Drewbie just loves to BM, huh? He 1A's to victory then gloats to pretty much every Zerg he meets. Talk about being carried by your race.

-Drewbie makes Marines, Marauders, Tanks and Thors-

"Hey Artosis, make more than 3 units, LOL"

Everyone get as much Drewbie as you can. After 1.1 you won't be seeing him in any tournaments.

It's Blizzard's fault for not fixing the matchup for so long, even when back in early P2 everyone was already complaining.

There's no comparison. In Warcraft 3 when humans went tower tank it still took took skill. Tanks couldn't just kill a base instantly, elf's could repair, undeads could repair. Undeads could get meat wagons, and Elves could get Dotts+ Aow + Golem mercs to rape the tanks. It was still difficult to stop but it could be stopped.

In TvZ what you have is the marauder unit which is also the most cost efficient combat unit in the game, stimming and being healed and destroying hatcheries in 5 seconds. War3 revolved around non effective combat units (tanks) having a minor combat role and a major base killing role and in SC2 you have probably the greatest unit in any RTS having a major combat role, a major harassment role, and a major base killing role. To defend the drops you need to spend more resources then they need to kill the actual hatchery, and they can just NOT drop you if you are prepared, and your main army is significantly impacted since you spent all those resources so you could defend drops at your bases. Then there's the fact dropping multiple places at the same time takes about 40 apm, 3 medivacs, shift drop 3 locations, use 3 ctrl groups, stim right click, dead hatchery.

Artosis' bm is 100% justified.

You did what you had to do to win. No one's blaming you. But you can resort to easy defence (AND get thors AND get the upgrade on your base) while blowing up everything with mass range. I think that's unfair that sc2 is far more unforgiving to terrans mistakes as opposed to the other 2.

But ofcourse you played well and gl for the rest of the matches (i mean this sincerely) Artosis played bad that game.
