Holy shit MMA that was amazing. Sick hold to a sick comeback.

Letting 22 workers die is a sick hold?


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


DRG droned behind it.


Because MMA blocked his entrance by moving his Barracks & Factory while building a bunker, DURING the attack.

I also think MMA was behind, but not really worlds behind. The game was definitely still doable for him given triple Mules and the fact he saved all his CCs and production.

Dat cloak was SUCH a good decision

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

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

Yeah, I agree, thats why I said in another post that DRG underestimated MMA's banshees and tried to depend on his queens

Cloaked Banshee is a good skill toi have



DRG lost because of his mistake of not preparing, not because of cloaked banshees. Go QQ somewhere else. If DRG made even 1 spore in each base he would have easily won.

You have no clue what you are talking about. DRG was up 30 workers and MMA:

1: Didn't even have his 2nd expo planted back down
2: No production facilities (except his 1-1-1)
3: No army as well (except 2 banshees)

MMA was dead if DRG didn't have a ridiculous brain fart in not making 1 spore at each base after seeing 3 banshees.
Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where, when facing a SlayerS terran, completing a hatchery would cause a medivac and 8 marines to randomly spawn nearby and attack it.

I wonder if MMA wants to play a regular macro game on TDA or is there another crazy strategy waiting.

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...

3 MULEs = 13 SCVs.
DRG had to cut drones to attack.
DRG should have built many spores to hold Banshee follow-up.
So, no, MMA was not dead at all, even after losing 22 SCVs.

MMA was never behind. He has 3 Banshees with cloak at a time when DRG didn't even have an evo chamber or a Lair started.

MMA was playing that game like MC's PvZ - fast expansion defended by a few defensive ground units and mostly flying units, with also some potential for harassment.

I Reccomended the game,
DRG made a silly error, no big skill involved by MMa either, but damn that was fun to watch! ^^

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

Not with 3 OCs.

agreed. triple mules and 3 scvs produced at the same time with a tech advantage? He wasnt miles behind. He was behind, but not miles


indeed, mma would have been at a slight disadvantage even if drg prepared with a couple spores in each base.


DRG could not take a 3th with the Banshee's out, it's true at the time DRG was slightly ahead only slightly but with MMA's 3 orbits and better tech MMA would easily take the lead again.

Roach bane usually wins the game outright if they got for 3 CCs but MMA's sneaky cloak banshee build really put the nail in the coffin.
