He didn't blink away and didn't have any FFs. He had the better army but didn't execute well at all.

Sick surround by Sen though :D .

Sen sure knows how to end a game with a bang. What a baller though I was afraid for him a little bit at the end. But I guess if you're Sen you don't want to win solidly, you want to win with style.

Would have lost all the rest of what little gateway army he had left and the colossus that were being protected by the stalkers. He couldn't blink. He needed forcefields.

So many people are criticizing the lack of force fields, but you have to realize mana had been getting baneling dropped for a while, and it is hard to retain any reasonable number of sentries with that.

I would have much preferred an inclusion of high templars a la hasuobs. The storm softens up the army and overlords simultaneously as you retreat from the baneling drops. Not to mention the templar are affordable considering you can skimp on sentries at that point.
What does it matter how I loose it?

...less than a second for Idra's whole argument about the Protoss deathball being unstoppable being totally and utterly shat on.



well to be fair it wasn't a real death ball more like an attack that had to happen because they P was so far behind and that was likely his only opportunity. I think Mana had 2 sentries? ForceFields could have negated a lot of those flanks. Either way Sen was a monster.

Well protoss is clearly so OP that a zerg with no corruptors can't stand a chance against 5 colossi deathball


oh wait...


Protoss is so clearly OP every time protoss loses we have to make a huge deal about it and extrapolate information about balance? How about sen was the better player, and mana needed to retain his sentry count so he could put up some forcefields instead of letting banelings walk up to his army.

On a serious note though, it's nice to see zergs winning a lot more, gives some hope for when I play this matchup : D

Mana had to do some insane micro and still barely managed to survived those attacks, goes up to like 6 collossus + stalkers and his army disappears in a split second????

go ahead, please switch to zerg. the swarm is always welcoming :D

Seriously that ending was just perfect. I thought MaNa had a good chance and in half a second his army just got destroyed from 3 sides. Absolutely the best baneling defense I've ever seen.

I know there were games that were closer, had more clever use of banelings in the past (drops, baneling bombs, etc) but this one was just nuts. Perfect timing on all fronts.

The reason that MaNa lost was because he was on 2-base versus almost 5-base. The reason other Protoss win is because it's 2-base versus 4-base.

Payback for us having to deal with your deathball bullshit for a couple months... and you're acting like it is easy. Sen was up 3 bases in both games, give me a break.

Mana's army was better. His lack of force field lost him the game.


Exactly, when Sen lost all those roaches he made up for it by sniping Mana's sentries, there were only 2 at the end.
