Of course it was planned. I've seen that same move done plenty of times on this map, to the point that sending an overlord there is not a good idea against a pro player.

It was. I'm sure I saw the same thing in IEM at some point


Didn't Boxer do something similar against Ret in the Iron Squid?

Yea but Boxer put 2 rax on the low ground right in the path of the ovie instead of doing the lift

Yeah he did, I've seen him do that alot on his stream by proxying his barracks and lifting it to get an early overlord kill and gain an advantage.

I'm very nervous for Grubby vs Stephano. I have been waiting for Grubby to get the better of Stephano for months. I hope today is the day. When does that match start EST? 4:30?

Obviously, it's a good way to get a quick advantage if you're playing against not so high level players who send their first overlords to wrong places

The answer to the question is yes, that was deliberate. Seeing this more and more on this map, place the rax down the bottom , get a couple of marines out, lift and kill the overlord which is 99 times out of 100 there on Cloud Kingdom.


Same thing on Daybreak.

I'm assuming that was a PC issue since DeMuslim got instantly up in frustration instead of waiting for the server to respond.


Still they could make it possible for you to reconnect like some other games.

I think Destiny showed his potential in that first game but also his weaknesses. He handled the engagements brilliantly 99% of the time but the drops killed him. Was a cool game to watch but there were mistakes no doubt.

It started with God making Adam and Eve. Them populating the world and their offspring creating BW.

where else can he send it tbh?
by the point the overlord must have been near the middle of the map towards to tower. Demuslim sent the SCV straight to the tower after building the rax to spot the overlord
i dont think theres anywhere he could have sent the overlord to save it. correct me if im wrong though
