gg from ret. He had way too many drones there


Having 70+ drones on only 2bases is like completely wasting 20 drones doing nothing because they are just running back and forth between minerals. No reason you need that many that early on.


You aren't understanding how he uses those drones. Rather than continuing to make Drones once the third goes up, he simply transfers a large amount from his main and natural and goes straight into combat unit production.

That quick saturation causes his economy to EXPLODE.


Oversaturating your minerals so you can quickly transfer to your expo later makes sense for Terran and Protoss but not as much for Zerg, since he can just make 20 drones in one round instead after he gets his 3rd up anyway.


I'm not saying it's something I would do, but it's something that Ret would definitely do.

Option A: Overdrone, then transfer, then make an army.

Option B: Drone normally, saturate 3rd, make more army.

Option A puts your further ahead economically, and also provides an earlier and stronger economic boom.

I don't get why people want DIMAGA, Kas, Nerchio, Strelok or Stephano when they haven't even gone to a single MLG event. >_>


Because they're better than most foreigners in the tourney anyways.


Uh but this tourney is qualification for MLG National Finals. What's the point in inviting people who most likely are not going to come.


People will go if there's something for them decent to play for. It's just not worth it anytime after the first couple of rounds of the season for EU players to head over if they aren't in pool play (with this seasons point scheme).


Yeah i agree but you never know their plans. Maybe the Eastern Europeans are not confident they can get visa. While Nerchio has stated he doesn't want to play away from home no?

Stephano was supposed to go to Korea as well (unless it was just a rumor). haven't heard that he is going to next MLG but that will be AWESOME if he does.


He's going to IPL 3 and MLG is next weekend so he's going to that too. He confirmed it on his stream.

Nice! Looking forward to his breakthrough performance then. Hopefully he doesn't meet puma or hero in the open bracket too early if at all though.

On topic: really disappointing for ret to lose twice in the same manner. meh. And this was supposed to be the highlight game of the day too =(

I've noticed...these games seem to be being played using the Korean non-adult version of the game, with black blood and fewer death animations. Is there a reason for this? Is it just that Artosis is observing or summat?

It's not a big deal, but it does make me a bit curious.
