ASSIMILIATOR MANA DAMMIT

U GOT ENOUGH MONEY.

sadface

Assimilator is 75 minerals bro ;p, he had 50.


he had 150 before that pylon dropped, could have dropped 2 assim instead of 1 pylon.
+ assimilator has more hp =/. Bad decision imo


He had to throw it down or die.

But didn't he throw the pylon down right next to the vespene geyser?

It was more around the other side of the mineral line

I completely missed the first game because the stream is not listed, so I though it hadn't started.

The pylon was like 3 blocks from gas. <_<


Would you risk that? That could literally come down to a one second difference.

one thing is for sure. The ESL audience should work on their enthusiasm.

And as we all know, this means that it must be true. >:D.

Jk,
just keep in mind:
Most of these people are their because of the gamescom and not the IEM itself. I think many people there don't even know Mana or MC as players because they're just "casual watchers". The IEM stage looks amazing and is next to one of the best games there so it's just normal that there many people that come over because they are just curious.

what was a fluke tbh, if Mana had more money mc would have lost.

I can see why he was named the suicide toss?


Nah it was a well calculated risk.

Mana obviously didnt have 400 or he would of made a nexus, and he already made a 1-2 pylons since the base race started. Thus MC made the educated guess that it was his last structure.

Lol at people saying MC play was too risky.
MC made a career of playing that way all his life.

it was a risky move, not that risky as it was kinda obvious that Mana didn't have enough money for anything else, but its the risk that makes a champion.

is there an actual LR going? I just started watching, sounds like I missed something epic, care to fill me in?
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Mana was very determined to stay there, and mc's probes gave him some more intel, it wasn't "pure luck" or whatever the mana fans are screaming, it was quite likely that that was the last building that kept mana in the game.
I don't understand why he didn't just blink in through the front though, because the bottom side blink was actually bad for him.

certainly deserves nerd baller sweater now :D

the best mana could have gotten was a draw. mc had blink stalkers which means he'd be able to outmaneuver mana's strong army. even if mana put assimilators across the map mc would have seen them (mana no nexus = vision of all buildings), split, and blinked to destroy them. mc still had a few of buildings in his main.

Agreed. It does take time to traverse 3 blocks. Not much time, but definitely a very long time relative to how long it takes for a big mass of blink stalkers to take down one pylon.

Still ; I wish MaNa had used a stalker to scout around that base to get rid of the probes. those two probes, really cost MaNa the game.

Why the hell do I hear random ass dudes talking in other languages while trying to watch this? Can they fix their website? First it kept crashing my stuff now all I hear is foreign dudes.

Finally, it is listed so I don't have to go to their terrible website.

hm, question: mana could have built an assimilator (with more hitpoint and a more sure draw) instead of that last pylon didn't he have the time to reach a geysir before the 2nd last pylon died?
