You can smell SlayerS preparation in this game. This reactor hellion with cloaked banshees to cover double expand was designed in such a way that it would not die to this kind of roach/bane/ling push. Wp.

? It would have died if DRG put up 1 spore for visions. Even with 3 CCs worth of mules he wouldnt have crawled back...

yes thats a sick hold, did you see how many units he had? like 10 in total. nobody holds an aggression like that doing 2 CC. some quick decision making, abandoning the nat, pulling scvs, utilizing the banshees, etc.

No, it was desperate. If DRG had paid attention and made spores he'd have GGd. It was his ONLY chance. And somehow DRG blew it. And no Artosis, it's not a small mistake, it's a huge one. It's like scouting cloaked banshees and making no detection... When's anyone here done that?

He started the upgrade as he was making his first one, it was clearly part of his build. Its a very good counter to roach/baneling all-in if you can survive the attack

I don't get the 'did not expect cloak' comments - when you're dealing with Banshees, shouldn't you always play WITH the assumption that they have cloak?? You can NOT take chances with that unit.

Don't blame him. He definitely did not expect the cloak.

When you get ahead like this there is no excuse for no playing safe DRG made a use mistake, the only MMA could come back was with cloack banshees.

"Terran imba?" LOL. A single spore for each base would've made a difference.

Not having spores after seeing two banshees is pretty inexcusable. Come on DRG, you can do better than that...


He had 4 queens, he did not expect 3 banshee's.
Then again going for econ damage on terran with 3 orbits is not going to work either.

What else was there to expect? He had no AA units apart from some queens and banshees own them. In DRG's shoes I would have expected to see at least a few banshees in my base almost immediately after that attack, which is exactly what happened.

Also MMA was never behind. DRG lost his entire army. He didn't kill the Starport. He had nothing to counter banshees.

MMA was miles behind, drg could haev easily had spores in time which would have countered the banshees along with his queens.


3 orbits .. MMA was not behind at all.

It's a sick hold in that it would've killed many lesser Terrans.


DRG droned behind it.

75 minerals DRG. Just 1 spore and its GG.


not really banshees can just move around and hit other stuff

he really needed atleast 3-4 to help the queens cover his bases

He had 3 queens at his natural. If he had 1 or 2 spores at each base for detection, he could've easily held that banshee harass and get mutas up. He just royally fucked up his spore timings.

The only "counter" there was DRG's fail. The Roach rush should have given DRG a massive lead, but he squandered it.

Only if they make no spores(which they should 110% of the time after scouting banshees)
