I enjoy some low economies at TvT. Constant aggresion, low supplies. So greater than slugfests we get normally.

I think the problem for MMA is that he's opening Hellions and Polt has figured out how to prevent it, and punish it.

MMA should perhaps go straight mech and get early siege.

Now I think I understand why MMA has a hard time with Polt, its the marauder. MMA reacts wrongly to marauders and bio in general by positioning himself as if he is facing mech, which makes him killable by bio. Did MMA really not prepare for bio mech? :/

Future of tvt: you dont need more than 5 depots.

:D

It's funny how a couple weeks ago TvT was all about epic macro games, split maps and siege tank lines. Now its just a huge mess. That matchup certainly had the biggest metagame shifts.


That hasnt changed. Polt just still does MM tank against mech. It works if you use drops and keep ketting into small engagements. MMA used MM tank vs Boxer's mech on tal darim in MLG anaheim.


MMA should open without the cloack and straight into siege mode. This will help fend off the initial push. He should also control his units better and not split them up. Polt should use drops and keep engaging small chunks of MMA's army.
Being a ho doesn't automatically make you "immoral" or a bad person, but it does make you a ho.

I know people say Polt has improved but I cant frigging stand his playing style.

Make MMM and push, make MMM and push, make MMM and push. Absolutely no strategy in what he does.

If Marauders werent such a stupid unit he wouldnt be in this game.


you can say the same about BFH keeping MMA in the game

Yea almost the same. Its just that when MMA is using his BFH hes multitasking the harass along with his defense. Polt is just getting a force together and moving out.

I think MMA's style takes a lot more skill. That shit is fragile, I'd love to see him win another game with it. Go Hellion micro... respect the marauders!

mma hates building marines



...why would he build marines?


Because Optimus didn't go mech.


yeah, but you can't just completely abandon your gameplan like that, especially on only three base. He has no marine upgrades, one barracks and 3+ fact set up. He would absolutely die if he tried to transition into bio/tank play.


Well usually that is true but that game he had such a commanding lead he might as well go marines since they can kill Polt's army quicker.

that would actually take longer. Building the production facilities and then researching stim/combat shields you'd have to wait a long ass time before you can push again. Not to mention polt's economy was so low it's not like he had to make marauders to make use of his production facilities. He could've just gone into marine tank with MMA easily.

can someone tell MMA to go marine tank instead of hellion tank? he is giving me a heart attack.

Polt is going to make so many marauders this game. So mMA really needs marines.

I'm going to predict another absolutely terrifying timing attack from Polt, because that's how Polt rolls.

Hope MMA doesn't go greedy. He'll just roll over and die if he does.

How starcraft is actually meant to be played. Thing of beauty.

Indeed, loved this game. 200 vs 200 a-move + fungal/storm/stim is the worst thing ever.
