Yeah, I agree. It's really stupid. If one player has only flying buildings it should be a countdown until that player loses, not to a draw. The only reason you'd hide you're buildings in a corner and wait for the timer is if you have no possible way to win. Cytoplasm did play that pretty badly though. F.ex. if he just left a overlord following the medivac with 8 marines in the top right and an infestor aswell he could've had his hive still.

I have a hard time believing a high level Terran would be unable to figure out how to float away buildings on his own, seems very unlikely that Apollo is to blame imo.
you gotta remember dragon was playing here

I kinda enjoy that game

I agree that Apollo should not have said that regardless of the circumstances, but i refuse to accept that Dragon was not aware of the situation.

I get the whole race mechanic i just really hate when they win draw out a game they should lose because of it In theory you could have 8 sentries and 1 pylon at a ramp and Terran with 200/200 bio but no mining/minerals could never beat you because of forcefields. Would that be imbalanced as well? Its not like Cyto did play a draw here because Terran buildings can fly, but because he failed to keep 3(?) hatcheries alive, with a superior army.... and mapcontrol.
I would pay to see that happen with the forcefields.

dragon realized it was a draw after apollo said that... sigh yeah, I don't think he realised I think Dragon could tell that there were no AA Air units after his buildings. He literally did not float his buildings anywhere until apollo said it. No he did it when he had no chance to win anymore. Dragon didn't know how many ressources Cyto had - there was still the very slight possibility that Cyto had banked 250 for a hatch and didn't want to spend it until all of Dragon's production was gone. I realize that's like 0,00001% possible, but still. Well, first world problem here, I think we will be able to get over it. If that was the case then Cyto would have just said no to the draw.... You guys are being ridiculous. There is no way Dragon didn't realize he could force a draw. 0% chance.
Well why the fuck did he not just fly _a_ building to the edge of the map earlier and not wait until the last second? Why risk it at all? 0% chance cmon man

Buildings should lose X health per second after > 1min of floating.

thats a valid point, even though i dont think it could EVER happen that way. What i dont like is the fact that one player CANT lose, no matter what, the WORST he could do was draw and i just dont think thats a fun thing to be in a tournament

Incontrol and Khaldor made that last game really good. Those kinds of games are perfect for Incontrol. I'm watching way more DH than I normally would because of these dudes.

Can't report pop for trolling :C

Apollo the target of the next witch hunt. I'm calling it now.
Knowing this community, I'd put money on it.
I thought the game was alright, I think Dragon could have done well to kill some of the drones with his banshee to prevent more extractors from coming up.

To all those believing that Apollo had no influence on that game, realise that Dragon was actually floating all his buildings to the MIDDLE and only turned around after Apollo mentioned the draw.
Well his orbital was still alive so he could build units, after it was killed (at the same time as the draw was called) he flew his buildings away

An example of why floating buildings should be given a time-out or something. Terrans should not get that advantage because no other race is able to force draws like that.
1 pylon in a main base with a normal ramp with 8+ sentries inside. If the other player doesn't have drops or massive units then the toss can force a draw.

no witchhunt. It was a clear mistake from a caster to ask the players for a draw.

Cytoplasm played like shit too, he should've built a single corruptor while he could, or a hatchery while he could, he did neither , built 2 ultras instead, he didn't deserve to win, both played like they had smoked enough marijuana to go into a comatose state.

I agree - best line so far:
Incontrol: "you are really intelligent"
Khaldor: "I'm German"
