The return of the Emperor! Boxer was so well prepared in all of these games. His strategic army management was totally mindblowing, if he could just get his macro up to the same level he'd be totally sick.

Jesus this series was sooo epic. Only thing I could find wrong with their play was how often Boxer gave medivacs away and sen often attack moved his blings, making them attack the siege tanks. But yer, think this has been the best sc2 series I've watched. TvZ is such an awesome MU(to watch

)

Let's be honest, that was a really bad position for zerg to be in, with the high ground right outside his nat, and no way to get to the terran's base.

And what gave Boxer that opportunity was his Drop at Sen's newly planted third at bottom left. He started attacking the hatchery in building, Sen moved his army there, and Boxer took control of the high ground. Great tactical play.

I don't want to watch anymore of Morrow's ZvT. Its become, rather predictable.

Are you implying that MorroW bling busts in every ZvT? Like in EVERY ZvT?

Great series... really felt like a classic ZvT battle - every game went into the late game rather than one or the other attempting some random timing.

Grats Yo-Hwan!

This is what Boxer is (among other things) good at -- getting into good positions and milking them. If you watch his early game aggression the marines were *always* tucked into a little position where you can't get at them.

Kind of a little thing, but I love the way boxer didn't just rally all his production to the front, making sen break through 2 lines...very hard to balance bling usage for that.

Good games, good series, TSL is really heating up

Wow, did we just timewarp back to Boxer's heyday? That was the best series I've seen out of Boxer, best of TSL, so good.

2:20
Sen takes the outer nat at 3.5 instead of his inner natural. Boxer with standard rax-OC, no gas yet.

3:50
Boxer walls off his nat ramp. He also takes double gas after expo-ing to his inner nat. Then makes another rax, then a fact. Sen with ling speed started, pulls drones off gas afterwards. He drones up hard.

5:55
Boxer with a fast Starport, with a techlab+reactor in the rax. Combat shileds starts, eliminating banshee play. Starport moves onto a reactor, makes a viking+medivac.

7:50
Boxer loads up a drop with a Viking escort. He drops the outer natural. Drones are evacuated. Marines start on the OL. Drones attack the marines as lings arrive. Boxer picks up the marines and has only lost 2. Another drop arrives again to drop the outer nat, original drop goes to the main instead. Sen doesn't have the queens to defend. Viking goes around killing off OLs.

Sen holds the drop, but Boxer has teched up, with tanks out. Sen still ahead in workers, 44 to 40.

11:10
Boxer with the standard stim+siege+bio weapons all upgrading. Sen getting Lair and +1 carapace. Boxer takes a 3rd at his outer nat, Lair is only half done. Boxer kills off rocks in the middle giving him a clear attack path. +1 bio armour on the way as well.

Stream freezes for me.

12:40
Sen attacks into the terran force just as the tanks try to siege up. Boxer survives and moves into the outer nat, but Sen gets a surround. Boxer with great micro and picks up his units wit medivacs and retreats.

Lair now done for Sen.

14:30
Okay, stream has synched back up for me. Sorry if I've missed any details.

Boxer roaming with marines, getting mech weapons upgrades, and +2 bio weapons. Spire done for Sen. Boxer attacks the 3rd again, picks up his marines just as the bane explodes losing nothing. His micro is go good.

Sen double-expos to 6 and the bottom left.

Boxer moves out with a mass of marines and tanks. He drops the hat at 6 and kill it. Terran ball moves into the middle and sieges up.

Drop sniped from Boxer.

17:50
Boxer channelling his inner-Oov, macroing up armies out of thin air. I swear he's cheating. Boxer keeps stimming to defend his tanks from mutas. +3 bio weapons on the way for Boxer and +3 melee for Sen. The armies dance in the middle.

Mutas move in, snipe some marines. Banes kill some roaming marines. The armies stare down at each other.

20:00
Sen swings around with a flank but Boxer has great positioning and kills it all. Boxer moves out to kill Sen's 4th and 5th at 6 and the bottom left. Sen counters, attacking the inner 12 expo from Boxer. He loses 3 mutas to marines in his trade. +3 bio weapons done for Boxer now. +2 mech weapons almost done, and +3 bio armour.

Terran army gets cleaned up at the bottom left. Sen rebuilds his hat.

Boxer cheats up another army and pushes the outer nat. Is this Boxer or Oov?

Sen tries to break the tank line, but great positioning. Sen loses his army and knows he can't hold.

He ggs.
