Ret could have not pulled drones and been fine. Sure he would have sac'd his natural, but he had plenty of time. Still. Ret is sick nasty. I've been waiting for Ret and Tyler to step up to former BW greatness and I am hoping Ret can keep to form.

Strelok played ok until the last 2 minutes then he played pretty bad.. letting the lings run by, clumping marines etc

-unbelievable- how lucky Ret was that game

counterattacks against a complete wall + bunker and goes all the way in, then engages with banelings when strelok wasn't looking

Ret was really amazing that game.
Strelok really looked frustrated.

Not really, strelok made a few big mistakes and was still going to win if he had spread his marines better. Ret was obviously solid enough to win

This game was complete domination until this last attack, if i had been a korean terran playing ret would have died, banelings would never have been able to do that much damage.

Only Strelok looking handsome. His play on the other hand could use a makeover.

That was some extreme bloodpumping going on in Streloks throat

Wasn't lucky from ret, it was strelok not being on top of his game

The thing is... you don't get top marine micro when your multitasking is strained and you're out of your comfort zone.

Ret abuses basic mechanical skill to such an amazing degree.

I fully agree with this. Strelok had good chances until then.

Strelok lost the same way in every loss in IEM at china. Always caught with every single tank unsieged and bad marine control.

Very good of ret to pull the drones in the last fight so the siege tanks would help kill Strelok's Marines (I recognize pulling drones when your opponent has no workers and you just have to kill their army is a good idead in general, but in that situation in particular the drones were important from what I could see)
