The builds continue to mirror each other. They both drop their CC's though TOP's is at his natural whereas sC's is in his base; TOP adds 2 gas but sC adds only 1 and 2 more rax.

6:00
TOP gets an earlier factory, sC is going bio-heavy with a tech lab. Top addas a reactor to his barracks, sC researches combat shields. TOP starts his starport.

8:00
TOP starts to get a banshee and cloak. sC has built his factory and started stim. sC pushes witha lot of marines but pulls back when he sees TOP's bunker.

10:00
TOP has stopped building marines and is researching pre-ignitor. His banshee does some damage but sC has turrets and scans saved. sC is going for medivacs before any factory units as well as a viking for the banshees. TOp puts down a third CC and is up 15 SCVs between harass and better macro.

12:00
TOp is definitely going mech. Both players clear the rocks at their thirds but TOP's orbital is done when sC puts his CC down.

14:00
TOP is getting a sizeable mech army. sC has yet to attack with his slowly increasing bio force. 1-1 is almost finished for sC and TOP is getting +1 mech. Top is ringing his base with turrets and sensor towers.

17:00
TOP is getting a fourth CC, sC starts 2/2 and still isnt building tanks. TOP decides to push out to his fourth with his large mech army. He also adds 2 more starports and gets Hi-Sec Auto Tracking. He builds a planetary at his fourth. sC is still passive on 3 base while TOP addsa a fifth and sixth CC. Both players are maxed.

20:30
sC going for a big drop. Top defnds with a large group of banshees and vikings, picks off the marines but the marauders do a lot of damage before the banshees can finish them off. TOP also getting building armour and is remaxed, sC is not. sC charges up to TOP while he is unsieged and trades most of his bio for most of TOP's tanks, sC gets a fourth.

23:00
sC is getting +3/+3, TOP only getting +3 weapons. sC is up in supply. TOP is harassing with hellions, sC charges up to TOP's reduced tank line and shreds it with marauders, he also kills the planetary at the fourth.

Sure hope Blizzard is going to remove marauders in HotS.

And replace them with a marine/marauder hybrid?

SC understands Bio pretty well. Overcoming some pretty significant advantages in the early midgame which should really put mech in a position where it doesn't lose. Nice.

3/3 rauders not bad

But they've only been 2/2 till now T___T

-=-=-=-=-

Credit to sC for getting a lot of nice engagements though, he's never been caught with his marauders in a bad spot when TOP's sieged an area. Always engaging with a great spread.

sc's big upgrades and the lack of support with the tanks for top is winning this for sc.

Both players get 12-rax but no gas at 13, 1-rax expo for both probably.

sC tries to push all the way into TOP's base but is finally repulsed. TOP has an unscouted base at the 9 o'clock main. Hes tryiung to reproduce his tanks but is still well down in supply.

A mineral only unit that does the same, but can also be repaired as well as healed by medivacs. Also it can jump cliffs and 1 shots destructible rocks.

The lack of medivacs for those maruaders really showed in that choke, sC looked alot of better in that engagement against 22 tanks.
