I DO NOT understand why DRG did not use the mutas to take down the medivacs.

Because he wanted to chase the section of all the army with his units. It was a good time. The tank load up was out of his vision.
Very high level tactic by MMA.


That and if he were to right click on the medvac if MMA were to target the clump with his thors, it would have been GG as well.

EXTREMELY great on the fly decision making by MMA, very very sick.


That's what I call blind fanboyism. DRG was allining in the last battle, and even if he won that battle he would lose anyway. MMA just needs 20 marines to clean up everything since banelings and infestors would be out of equation. I still think terran is OP btw. DRG didn't do anything wrong but he still lost by quite margin. It wasnt even close.


Yes, because suiciding your entire army to kill a planetary with no workers at it isn't doing anything wrong. I REALLY hate the balance QQ, balance has been great for a couple months now. DRG made 2 major mistakes and a TON of minor ones. His play was nowhere near optimal let alone perfect.
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.

No it was sick micro, MMA was microing his main army from blings and zerglings, focus firing infestors with tank drop and flanking at the same time

He's talking about DRG you miss his point

Yes, because players who aren't Terran never micro and just 1a all the time.

And they wonder why everyone hates them. Anyway we need 3 more wins by DRG to make this epic. Hope MMA doesn't cheese though it would be the smart play. I want to see more of his absurd 4 simultaneous drop play.

You know, if I time travel back to just before GSL Nov. finals, I could argue that one ezpz, I felt like I was the only person cheering for Jjakji.

at very high level banelings just become useless as they get microed out too easy. maybe earlier infestor play would be a solution. anyway mma played brilliantly and deserved the win no matter if T is op or not ..

MMA was counting on DRG not to target his medivacs because he knows how a good zerg player would act. If DRG was sloppy and just a-moved, those medivacs would've died.

kind of balance whiny either way, claiming that T micros when Z doesn't.

for people saying he should have targeted down the medivacs, their armies were already fighting and the medivacs were just flying off. in drgs mind those are already dead and he can just kill them later. he probably thought it was better to use the mutas to attack actual attacking units instead of medivacs too far away to heal anything. i doubt he was worried about anything substantial coming out of those medivacs that would actually turn the tide of the fight


The armies weren't already fighting. The thors and marines were still running away and out of range of DRGs army. It would've taken half a second to a-move and kill those medivacs.


Thank you Mr. Hindsight.
Zephyr explained very well one of the reasons why this would not make sense in the game.
He also could have thought he wouldn't want half his army to die to marines and thors while killing medvacs.
He might have also been moving mutas careful so as not to get smashed by thor splash.


This was pretty much it. MMA's medivacs went in right as DRG decided to attack and he moved (instead of a-moved) his mutas in to avoid Thor splash.
