But you took the third set handily and won the whole thing. Where did this strength come from?
I used strategies that I had saved up for a long time. I thought even the godly DRG would be taken aback if he got hit by unknown strategies multiple times in a row. Set 2 was what’s called the ‘MMA build’. It causes roach production with hellions and then harassing with banshee making the game stable and a rich economy possible. Set 3 was a build that I’ve never lost in practice with. To be honest, I wasn’t confident on Tal Darim Altar. So the build I chose was a blue flame hellion followed by expansion into MMM. It’s not good against mass roach but it simply cannot lose to ling/bling. I was certain DRG would opt for the latter and the counter worked. The last set was a strategy I used in the first game. Playing against a player like DRG who has great muta control on Metalopolis is so difficult. I thought standard macro play would be hard to pull off so relied on a build that hinges very heavily on micro. I feel I was able to come out with a win because I was already ahead.
