lol, MMA outclassing DRG.

However that tank drop did nothing. Drg was just surprised and mismicroed. Had he been paying attention, (not sure why he wasn't that was an allin, as he wasn't taking another base) Mutalisks could have easily sniped those medivacs.

Edit: I wish my Terran opponents were so nice as to fly medivacs full of tanks by my mutalisks and over a pit of lings.

Picking up your tanks in medivacs and flying them through muta's is not a very smart move. Unless MMA knew DRG would have the brain explosion of letting them go by untouched

Really good decision making by MMA: it was a gamble, either that worked or he was going to lose a lot to infestor/brood before reinforcing; DRG didn't react properly for some reason, I suppose nerves are getting the best of him.
Now, hopes up for a comeback and more matches.

Can someone fully explain that to me?
At first I thought MMA was accidently picking up two tanks and sending them to their death(by mutas.)
How did he know the mutas wouldn't kill them?
How exactly was DRG out of position to deal with the tanks anyway?

I wonder if DRG missed the tank pickup and thought the medivacs were empty.

MMa always had more basses than drg.


Well to be fair he went from being ahead most the game, then in 10 second tech switch by DRG, MMA almost lost and with amazing decisions making instantly won.

dropping the tanks in the backlines was smart


not really... drg just played it dumb. he had so many mutas to kill those.

which would've been hit by 3 thors and their splash damage


what? the tank drop medivacs weren't anywhere near thors. they were effectively 4 free tanks and 2 free meds if drg kills it

That was bizarre.

He filled 2 medivacs, flew them basically through a muta clump, and DRG didn't do anything lol


I tried to look for the mutas but IMO that clump was all broodies.

Thors were too far away / dead i think. Could be wrong though, need to see that replay

Everyone saying that DRG could've easily sniped the medivacs, he could've also received a lot of shots from the thors because of the clumped up mutas.

Also I think the moment was perfect, mutas were just moving to the left side.

Yes, it was a risky move but otherwise he was just getting cornered and would eventually lose the battle. The move was brilliant because it won him the game in that tough situation

these are are disappointing me in the fact that drg decision-making is terrible...why did he let two medivacs fly to the back of his army?...even if they were empty.


why act like that was a decision? Obviously a micro mistake.... what dissapoints me is peoples observation skills..

Jjakji v Leenock is still better, this is still too onesided.


no, jjajki vs leenock was NOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT as good as this


Jjakji/Leenock was better.

DRG's decision making/nerves are subpar this series.

Stop freaking out. It was NOT a good move.

The tanks were so vulnerable in the medivac, the only reason this worked was because DRG failed his control.

Yep they flew right past the Mutas, was a terrible move actually. But Artosis said it's a good move so everyone thinks so now


Tanks would've died to Broods/Mutas anyways. So he took a risk and it paid off, it was a damn good move. Deal with it.
