inc's 'shark mode' during mid game is to threaten that a 6gate or some weird huk timing is coming, but almost everytime inc is 'faking' aggression so ret just realizes this and knows inc is not going to attack so he grabs a 3rd and gets a pretty big econ lead
Yea i agree with this. Everyone in the world knows when inc 3 gate expands, he never goes for 5-6 gate timing like tyler and he is just "sharking" That is not fooling anyone now.

inc done lost. You can't let zerg get 4 base 200.

But instead, he's powering, throwing down a robo.
He's definitely not putting enough pressure on Ret. On his stream, he always waits for obs to move out. He's afraid of burrowed roaches.
Very interesting. I guess that makes sense, but then he could just retreat if they buried. Plus, he's gotten multiple immortals so he had no intention of applying any pressure, which is a pity.
Great colossus snipe by Ret. Poor positioning by iNcontroL too.

Sad to see but hey, 1-1 is more exciting than 2-0 any day! How? He didn't scout ret's third at all until way late. That basically gave ret the game right there. He took 2 hidden expos AND teched spire, all with no defense to hold off any kind of 5/6 gate timing attack. That's just gambling, and it worked this time, but it's not something you can do two games in a row. It's called reading your opponent. His 3rd was also not a hidden expo. It was a standard timing for a 3rd. There's no "reading" involved, he was just hoping. You don't scout your opponent and go "ah, I can tell this guy's build doesn't give him the ability to scout hidden expos", you take it and hope he doesn't scout. You see how incontrol didn't 4 gate because he knew he couldn't get away with it twice in a row? Ret's playing differently in game 3 for the same reason: he knows what he did in game 2 will never work twice in a row. Now ret's playing standard in game 3 so if he wins this, he would definitely be playing better than incontrol. Ret didn't take his hidden expo until he had map control with mutas. Xelnaga is a pretty bad map to go spire on. Inc didn't 4gate because he probably thought he would have a better chance on Metal than on Shakuras.
Also, Incontrol almost never 5-6 gate timing attacks. If I know this, I'm pretty sure someone has told Ret this or he's figured it out himself.

Incontrol has a weird PvZ style that doesn't seem very good, he stays on gateway way too long. If he played like Kiwikaki, sure he might still be in a good position:-P

Why did he repop Ling/Hydra this is gonna be ugly
|
iNcontroL's kryptonite: broodlords.
Gonna lose game three.

when ret was pushing into incontrols third, was inc out of sentry energy? i feel like he could split that army in half and destroyed it.. instead he retreated.
|
get some sleep
|
Yeah incontrol loses once again by not scouting a 3rd and letting ret build a shit ton of units and stock resources.

Incontrol plays way too passively, really unimpressive series from him.
