He was going for BC he could have at least made another one

Anyway guys what were Boxer's upgrades at the end for his mech? I saw 0-2 and if that's right that explains quite a lot actually.

Sometimes when you're ahead, it's better to just end it, since with mech, you're actually hurting yourself by taking more than 4 bases, since you cannot defend them AT ALL. The BC choice was rather questionable as well, since you get BCs to counter ground units, which the 25 +3 siege tanks already do. You get BCs with bio to COUNTER MECH, not the other way around. If Boxer needed to waste gas on something, he should have gotten Ravens, to counter the clumping MM balls, not +0/+1 bcs. Pfs do nothing against upgraded bio either. this, and despite what Artosis says, I've heard it many times when he's approved of a kill-move over a "get more ahead" move. | ||

I think he probably should've been making raven's instead of battlecruisers at the end because the marauders looked like they were really making the difference in the engagements. Yeah. The decision to go battle cruisers that early killed him. Also I feel he should have expanded upwards towards the top left. Would have been a little bit easier for him to secure that position because the bottom choke at the natural was harder to attack and he could have left less units there. If he expanded upwards and made a slow push towards the top Xel'Naga tower, he would have been able to get a really good and defendable position which defended his top two bases. Then he could just leave a couple of tanks to defend the choke at the bottom. | ||

Mech was fine, but yes the "when you're ahead get more ahead" rubbish is what lost him the game, he had a clear timing to kill, or at least contain marineking, but he was too safe, with so much on the line it's something that's understandable, but MarineKing is someone you don't really want to give the chance of rebuilding and expanding everywhere. | ||

In fact what people are missing is that the mech play actually put him comfortably ahead... then he decided to make BCs | ||
