Yea but tester is not obligated to attack either. They can just sit there forever because Genius cant really kill testers buildings either. I think the draw in that scenario is justified. | ||

Edit: I mean obviously he was scared at how many DTs Tester might have, but that was a big mistake he should've known that there was very few from what he was seeing. | ||

I think the draw in that scenario is justified. Of course Genius could kill the buildings. He had blink stalkers and stalkers run faster than DTs. For me it was BM from Tester and Genius was dumb to let it go. | ||

For me it was BM from Tester and Genius was dumb to let it go. The reason he agreed to a draw (we assume) is because he didn't know how many DTs were out there. If there were say 4 DTs, then it's a huge risk to move his Stalkers to attack. Even if he left say 3 Stalkers to defend and attack with the others, Tester could run 4 DTs in and snipe the Cannon, thus winning the game. Yes, Tester actually only had 2 DTs but Genius didn't know that, and had no way of finding out without risking losing the game. In this case, he probably felt that accepting the draw was his only choice. And I hate to quote myself, but this is the reasoning I posted earlier in the thread: You're forgetting that Protoss buildings regenerate shields. It's not like Genius could just chip away at the buildings slowly, because the DTs will come to chase him, meaning he has to run away, and then the shields on the buildings regenerate some more etc. It would be impossible to kill the buildings without bringing at least 3-4 Stalkers imo, and it would be too risky to leave only 2-3 behind to defend considering that he didn't know how many DTs were out there. Hope this helps to explain. | ||

Oh yes because I'm sure Genius was more than happy to risk drawing out the game to at least an hour + just so everyone could watch such mind-numbingly stupid action | ||

The draw was justified imo because not only was it legitimately a stalemate but Genius didn't know how many DT's Tester had. | ||

Why is there only three games of tester vs genius? Don't tell me that the draw game isn't uploaded. That would be just idiotic. | ||
