TT1 1-0 Destiny

Destiny goes for fast infestors to take out the second nexus after denying TT1's third (with Infested Terrans).

The risk didn't payout and TT1 rolls with Archons and Chargelots.

EGAxslav 0-1 TT1: TT1 now on a 2-game streak.

TT1 spots Axslav's forward pylon but blocks himself with a forcefield and poor blink maneuvering. Axlsav opening with 4-gate and blink stalkers into taking a hidden expansion with a Dark Shrine.

TT1 takes up his own expansion despite harassment from the DTs and poor blink stalkers from Axslav. Superior numbers allows TT1's to roll Axslav's army but does not follow up with counter-pressure, letting Axslav mix in a martini of Zealots and stalkers.

Axslav takes his natural, pretending it is a late expansion, but TT1 sees the original hidden expansion.

Axslav tries to compensate with Archons and plays what TT1 did to Destiny: Chargelots and Zealots. Under pressure TT1 puts up a Dark Shrine, tries to add pressure to Axslav's hidden expansion without proper control and now equally countering with matching Archons.

4th base down for Axslav with a Robo bay and TT1 plays it out with mirroring more bases. Both players now ensued with 5 bases with Axslav's slight economic advantage.

TT1, despite his passivity, takes another game. A good archon concave and numbers of archon units gives TT1 a granted wish in PvP.

GosuPokebunny 0-1 TT1: TT1 now on a 3-game streak.

Pokebunny getting aggressive with his Marauder Concussive Shelled Marauders and a marine trying to deny TT1's expansion with a close-positioned bunker.

Pokebunny's own expansion goes down while TT1 follows up his still-standing expansion with his 3-gate opening. Pokebunny shows him going mainly a bio army with two reactors, stim and now shield upgrade for his marines. TT1 shows twilight council and snags Chargelot for his Zealots.

Pokebunny tries for a mid-game pressure at TT1's main ramp but only half of his units meet the cut and get picked off with ease from TT1. To compensate, Terran starts to take a third which Protoss takes note of. Cleans up the remaining forces of Pokebunny and TT1 takes another win after two failed pushes from Pokebunny.
