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 do think it would be bad mannered to keep force-fielding your ramp if your opponent had a 200/200 army. It's different though imo.


How is it bad mannered. Its a game-mechanic and if you can prevent losing, you do so. Perfectly valid

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

Because he was still trying to produce units with the mules and his command center ? Did you actually watch the game?

If anything, Blizz should make flying buildings run on fuel. Would make sense and fix the issue.

not really, I think Terran buildings are fine how they are

In any base trade with terran you have to have a flying anti air unit, it's the same in any vs T MU, the Zerg fucked up. Now if FG didn't hit air, he would have had corruptors lol

I'm glad you can read his mind

the point is caster should never even POSSIBLY affect the game like that

Dragon has played like 5000+ games as terran, im pretty sure that he knows that terran buildings can fly.

But he didn't know the Zerg had no Muta/Corrupters.


If he didn't know, he would've tried to float anyway.

Pretty much this. Seriously guys. You're basically calling Dragon a complete retard just because he can't handle pressure well during a game. He's not that dumb.

the time before he noticed he should be flying the buildings with / without apollo asked for draw had quite a large impact.
Why wouldn't dragon fly his buildings earlier when he had nothing against the broodlords?

Cyro could have destroyed a few buildings or damaged them if apollo didn't say anything

Dragon couldn't support all those production anyway

What does manners matter in that situation? :o

Seriously?
I'm pretty sure after 5 minutes of flailing around with medivacs/banshees uncontested by air that he would have figured it out by then.

Its bad mannered to take advantage of your race's mechanics to win? Why do people even play this game

I can't read his mind, you can't either. No way to know what he would've done. You think he didn't realize Cyto had no AA after all this time, I think he did.

And yeah Apollo should've not done this, definitely not. Just think it didn't matter at all here.


We know what he ALMOST did. He almost lost all of his buildings. Do you realize how close it was? If those infestors had been 1 screen closer, dragon might have lost. It isn't like he made an easy escape.


Didn't he have tons of buildings at bottom left when the game actually ended? Like 5 or 6 at least. That's plenty enough to escape a couple infested terrans.

Fact is Apollo sent the message when Dragon had no chance anymore. That's when Dragon floated his buildings towards the corner, because he had no chance to make any units anymore.

Bah, just tuning in now, sounds like I missed some e-drama!

Can someone briefly give me a run-down of the previous draw game?

Because he still had his Orbital. When his Orbital exploded, Dragon lifted all his buildings.

When the main point of a 55 min game is a caster calling for a draw when it obviously is, you know there has been something wrong.

I've seen Dragon do some retarded shit. I've seen better players throw away games in even more stupid manner. Stop trolling.

Trolling? I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Anyhow, I agree with PoP in that Dragon would've tried to fly away his buildings anyway, the question is if he was going to do it in time to avoid the infestors.
