There was still loads of gas on the map anyway, because boxer was NOWHERE NEAR mining out all the gas from his old bases, Rain could have got gas from those bases. Boxer didn't know much much, if any, minerals Rain had, so from one view he was in a position where he thought he might be able to get a draw, but Rain definitely had more gas available, and Boxer could see Rain was still making new units anyway. It's unfortunate Day9 has decided Rain had no more gas though, when it's just a lie, because there was gas on the map. There was one gas geyser on the map that still had gas, at Boxer's gold. Every other geyser was mined out. Boxer probably thought they all were. | ||

Nail on the fucking head. 10 years on and the Emperor always plays to entertain. Winning and losing comes second. Pretty much the reason why I love Boxer and WhiteRa so fucking much to bits. They've won a lot of tourneys and are in their so-called twilights. Winning still matters but not as much as putting a show for the fans. It is not hard to see why they keep gaining so much respect in E-Sports. Long lives to them both. | ||

So Boxer was right to try and force a draw but in reality even if Boxer had 10 vikings left he would have been whittled down with Rain being able to rebuild/repair (Barring amazing Boxer viking snipes which is a possibility). | ||

If you're dissapoint you haven't watched him enough. He's always had a pretty extreme GG timing. Not as much as Fantasy, but still. | ||

I say that because for a long time boxer hadn't been mining gas from THREE of his bases, including the gold. Rain had managed to mine out his side, but there's pretty much 0 chance Boxer had mined out his side, because Rain stopped mining at most of those bases while he was slowly pushing forwards. There was a geyser missing totally from the gold for ages due to siege tanks, and he took out the 9 and 10 o'clock bases before he (Rain) was mined out for gas, so unless Boxer hacked the game and stole gas without using SCVs, there was gas left at those bases. | ||

Do geysers turn red when they are depleted or is that just when they have a building on them because I think a saw a few geysers that were green. nah you dont get depleted gas like BW, but there was surely gas at boxer's 5th | ||

Boxer floated his buildings out to the corner, and had his own vikings. If Boxer could've killed all of Rain's vikings, Rain couldn't have killed Boxer's last buildings, and Boxer couldn't have eliminated rain. Draw. | ||
