Marine-Tank essentially assumes that you don't need to kite. The key here was to occupy Hero long enough to prevent him to have a very early third and charge. Mass upgraded chargelots backed up by good upgrades are always scary.

byun had a 3rd orbital for a long time and hero didn't try to counter because he was so defensive.
Maybe he feels he needs to compete (like prove his knowledge of starcraft is just as good or better) with Khaldor in usual casts. Not sure. But tonight he's been great.

Hero had some problems with defending against the banshees, he took too much damage to the delayed harass. Also he built Phoenix and didn't use them to lift the tanks. The decision to build Phoenix was kinda awkward as he didn't use them enough for what they cost, they delayed his upgrades and templar tech by quite a bit.
