Insane micro from both players though. Its perfectly fine to save Scans in mid game tvt

That was possibly the sloppiest sc2 game i've ever seen, but it was pretty fun all the same

Some of you are way too critical of these guys and should really rewatch the earlier GSL seasons. They were so unbelievably fuckign worse then anything we see here.
AND FUCK YEAH FANTASY!
I personally liked Light vs Turn and Sea vs Skyhigh more . There game seemed more refined .

I don't want to be cynical, but you are better of watching the GSL, where there are less PvPs and more high-level exciting games.

It's okay to say it, they are getting better;and that game was more exciting to watch than 60% of gsl code S

One raven would have done the trick. But even GSL terrans don't seem to want to build ravens.

first of all, there is no reason to call anyone a scrub without knowing who you are talking to. and 2nd, any1 who says that anything in this game was "perfect" is just a huge fanboy who probably just watched 3 sc2 games total.

Like the insane Banshee micro? lol. Or just runnung all SCV's in stimmed marines with no backup? I don't doubt their abilities, they just can't apply them very good to SC2 yet.

Just joining now. What has happened so far?

There were blue marines chasing him behind the SCVs, they would have gotten the medivac had he only moved the marines. But maybe we're talking about another part of the game.

Their macro was perfect, but granted they both had less than 30 scvs all game lol.
But damn that marine micro from Fantasy.

OGN really needs to just put up their own Twitch/Ownd streams like they do for LoL. Even the EsportsTV stream has no sound.

1 raven doesnt do the trick when there is banshees harassing everywhere^^ turrents are way better for that purpose. although a raven is never wrong in tvt simply for airfights (pdd viking v viking for air vision)

True. Skyhigh looked better TvT, but Fantasy never really looks refined. The weird/offbeat games are part of his strength imho, so I'm happy to see it carries over to Sc2
