I feel like the bane of Illusion that game was the passivity of his army. He secured the BO advantage from the beginning, secured an economic + army lead for a vast majority of the game but didn't capitalize.

Those Pheonix are the MVP's of the game. If Illusion started just multi-dropping and segregating the toss army, it would be over pretty fast.

illusion should have won that game practically a huge bo advantage.

hero played patiently though content with just playing from behind. i guess he felt like his opponent was playing sloppy and he could just win anyways

illusion sticking with almost pure marines all game long , of course HerO owned at last , great comeback! gogo HerO!

After 2 years of watching starcraft it still amazes me how terran can put so much pressure and deal dmg with his most basic t1 unit.

If Illusion had handled the battle at the Xel'Naga better, he would've taken the game.

it was a poor choice to attack through the choke into an arc of 5 laz0rz. i guess he thought he was at a huge advantage, but never a good reason to just a move without even scanning.

not really. it was a BO advantage. cancelling a nexus is an amazing move but it's not anywhere close to game-ending, plus illusion went gas first and delayed his economy to get out those units.

Oh yeah I guess he did see them. Still, pretty good engagement :D

Illusion actually had 10-12 vikings at one point, but when he engaged at HerO's third they mostly got targeted down, and he rebuilt more medivacs. Still too marine-heavy.


Hum.... I think i agree for the most part. I think hero with stalker targeting and forcefields is super dangerous no matter what though... how do you kill a well controlled army like that that will pick you apart at every engagement attempt...

BO loss? No he had the BO win. He delayed Hero's expo for so long and had the supply lead. The problem was that he didn't build an army composition that could take out his opponent's composition.

Too many marines, 5 vikings, 2 medivac.... you're not going to win even against a bronze a-move deathball.

So BO disadvantage turned out to be an advantage? :D hahaha

after sniping the 3rd, illusion shouldve just taken his 4th and turtled at the 4th with a big concave so hero wouldn't be able to mitigate his economic loss
