That marine micro was insane, as a noobie I would love to have some insight as to how he does it, is it 3-4 control groups purely for marines or is he just that quick and accurate with manually selecting and moving marines around?

It's not the micro ppl, why didn't zenio tech switch to infestors and maybe a more roach heavy army?


Uhhh, because tech switching takes time and there were a constant stream of Green Beret fucking marines heading into his base.


Why, he had time to switch and get 10-15 mutas out but not infestors or more roaches? It was clear boxer was gonna go mass rines after he tried to bust in with the blings, how was muta/ling/bling was a better choice?

Also, he didn't even have bling speed then with the terran 2-basing, wtf was that?

I think kyrix fked up, put up a good fight but poor unit choice. Boxers micro wasnt that good, don't jump into every hype train u see ppl

When would you guys say the best time to really tech to infestors was? The only time I really saw it possible was when he failed the bane bust he probably shoulda sac'd an ovie (not sure if he did) to see what was up in the main and maybe from then got infestors seeing the double reactor but other than that period seem'd like he just had too much pressure on him to really get it out

he wasted an insane amount of gas on mutas who died engaging marines without benelings

Am I wrong to assume he just re-invented Marine/Medic from BW to sc2 with Marine/medivacs?
With NaDa's answer the other day about you have to keep even in mineral count with zerg I understand why now lol. Guess we're going to see more Marine Medivac plays from now on lol. Much more micro intensive and u need a good economy to sustain the constant stream of marines/medivacs making it more into an action packed game with micro and macro elements like BW.

10 reactored rax is the way to go, that's all Only this allow to keep up with the zerg macro and mass production. This is all "theorized" in the marine/raven topic in strategy forum. Marines are expandable, the point is the zerg has to spend gas and larvas en masse top kill them, and whith godly micro he spend even more ressource and the trade is more and more favorable as your marine micro improves.

He didn't get combat shields, that's so funny


Is this true? I find it hard to believe he got 3-3 and stim for a PURE marine build and forget to get combat shield.


I couldn't believe it either, but unless the animation bugged those mariners didn't have shields.


Should have probably ditched the lvl 3 armor for shields might/could have been slightly better. Though it does not matter he won so i guess it was all good decisions.


It was clearly a mistake to not get combat shields since he was floating a lot of minerals/gas at points in that game. Going full marines isn't exactly expensive so if he would of noticed he would of gotten the shields no doubt.

Pretty sure this was an instance of 3/3 marines vs 0/0 zerg, or at least a significant upgrade advantage for Fauxer.

It looked like the games was about to tip back to zerg again when he started using Roaches more though, but Fauxer just had better macro/resupply, it looked like...

he was late upgrading to lair so he could get the third hatch, so burrow was late as well plus foxer was using scans a lot so not sure good the burrowed banelings would have been

He wasn't 3/3 ground.

might have been a bad choice going spire again, perhaps he felt that infestor's one time usage of fungal growth might not have the longetivity as mutas *if* he manages to mass up a crap load of muta. Whereas its harder to use mass infestors against a well split up marine army

I'm sorry but how you people can call it Marine + Medivac and just kill it

The strategy that Foxer did is so mindblowing and to keep in mind how many things he had to do:

1) Keep upgrading marines
2) Keep worker count high
3) Keep expanding when safe
4) Never stop attacking
5) Micro Marines so they don't get trashed by banelings


It's actually much easier than it looks.

Zyrix wouldve lost if he had gone infestors cuz of FoxeR's constant pressure. he needed every mineral/resource to barely match against foxer's mass marine push. if zyrix had gone infestors, there is no doubt that foxer wouldve won the battle shortly after. FoxeR ---the god of marine micro
