You can and he certainly could. He was banking money while still playing a lot of marauders, he also had the gas. The only thing that hurts you if you have so many ghosts is if you slip in viking production or miss them hiding colossi. If they hit you with 6-9 colossi and you didn't build up vikings you die. But yeah, a mass ghost style would never lose to a army composition that is zealot archon and a few templars. | ||

Amusingly, Demuslim's drops let Bling's bad macro create an even bigger army and win. Exactly, DeMu was down 20 army supply, had like 2 drops which is 20 more supply flying around the map, ofcourse he is going to lose the head-on fights, but he shouldn't if he doesn't have 75 scv's. Dunno, just seems weird to me. | ||

This is what I never understand about terrans playing lategame, versus Zerg they sacrifice their SCV's, but why not versus Protoss? Isn't that supposed to be their thang, having a way bigger army supply due to MULEs? Hmmm...vs Zerg you can make the transition to mass OC because your army is cost-effective enough to survive the transition period (which is very expensive). Vs Protoss, I'm not sure how you can do the mass mule without getting walked over. | ||

Korean Terrans are beginning to do this but afaik there haven't been many foreigner T's to sac their SCVs in this matchup, GanZi and MMA do it quite often in late-late game scenarios, but DeMu did actually lose scvs, he just remade them the entire time >.> | ||

Good luck affording 30 3-3 Ghost AND retaining all of them throughout the game buddy, that's way too unrealistic. Retaining your extremely expensive Ghost during trades/engagements is near impossible, they may be sturdy, but for their cost, not so much. It's highly impractical/impossible to go pure mass ghost vs Protoss because of cost, supply, and the fact that they have to have support. Go find me a game were a terran went 30+ Ghost vs Terran and wins. Thanks. | ||

That and you really have to kill the observers which is over your army most of the game. I really dont see why he allowed bling to keep his obs hanging over such exposed spots so long | ||

Sure he does cannon rush into 2 base timings, but 3 or 4 months ago he'd probably already have lost. For all the shit he gets the practise does slowly seem to be paying dividends for him. It's pretty dissapointing that he lost to a completely no name player tbh, granted that Heavens has been playing pretty great. I expected him to win this one. That would have made it a positive showing. Now it's kind of meh.. | ||

In order to ditch scv's, you need to throw down 3-4 CC's and turn them in to orbitals. Demuslim was never floating minerals through that game... he was constantly using all his resources to rebuild his army. | ||

No one should be surprised at him losing. | ||

We now have the illusion that Demuslim deserved to win just because Bling made one mistake. Lets be real, Demu couldn't get anywhere not even after he managed to stay alive after two big fights. This means he was far far behind. Also a good point, if Bling had had sufficient gates up before he lost his army, he'd have rolled over Demuslim completely. | ||
