why did DRG not get a 4th base or something? i dont even think thorizain could've really punished that with the muta control

drg muta control is insane.

thorzain could have won much sooner if he just stayed aggressive after elevator drop. a nice tank marine timing vs a low drone zerg = gg.

Thorzain didn't throw this game away, the roles have just been reversed between zerg and terran. This time the Terran is the one replacing his units while the Zerg is pushing with units now and sacrificing a late game army.

that's easy to say now, but his decision making was really questionable that game ...

Actually he could have a moved his first push to DRG and would have won the game straight away. No way 12 mutas and 16 lings defeats 4 unsieged tanks and 20 marines with medivac support.

A terran needs thors and/or turrets to protect his tanks. Too late for him in game 2 now.


Hmm, that was a weird turn around. I guess if it's 3 base each, and he has that early lead, throwing away tanks doesn't hurt as much as it looked like it would.

Feels so dirty to cheer for marines...


I agree lol. This is one of the only times I'll do this.

Because it's a foreigner vs. a Korean, which I guess takes precedence over my hatred of all things Terran >.<

Thorzain took an extraordinary lead at the beginning, ahead almost by 50 supply at some point, and still almost lost that game. DRG is really on another level.


No, Thorzain could've ended it when he was 50 food ahead. He could've a-moved into DRG's base and won it.


Yeah,, he probably had just won it with a push.

But that wasn't good enough, he wanted to spoon him to deatH!

This is why i say it doesn't really work that well TvZ to take artosis advice of "when ahead, get more ahead". He almost lost that game, while playing pretty damn well, just because he didn't pull the trigger :/

Artosis's advice works when you are actually capable of playing a macro game solidly versus some of the best in the world. Thorzain demonstrated that he isn't on DRG's level yet, just getting drawn and quartered by DRG's muta control. I guarantee you if MVP was in a similar situation, had he decided to go into a macro game it would have been far less close.


Oh god, it would be like 5 bases 200 max with 20 ghosts, I don't even want to think about it @_@

So why haven't any of these Terrans been making more Thors because DRG really, really, really seems to love those Mutalisks.
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.

Thorzain in his worst matchup vs. a top 3 Korean Zerg with his best matchup.

The score is 1-1.

Looks like the gap between Koreans and foreigners are getting smaller, whatever the series will end in.

I can't believe he took of DRG in a macro game.


it was less than 20 drones vs 50 SCVs

A lesser zerg would have GG'd on the spot

Well drg lost the game at the 10 minute mark, the only reason it turned into a macro game was that thorzain took forever to kill him.

All quiet on the "oh DRG so good Thorzain sooo bad" front. Haters gonna hate (but they do it more quiet when they´re proven wrong)
