Is it just me, or was Seed too passive when he had opportunities? He was like 30 supply ahead after Vortexing the ultras, but just sat there. Frustrating to watch -_-;;

Zergs all over the world coming to the shocking realization that you can deny Protoss expansions forever with a bunch of cracklings.

the fact that the game is still anyone's kind shows how close both these players really are

8:00 hydralisk den for zerg! only a voidray and some phoenix floating around the map, seed now goign robotics.

9:00 void ray takes hull damage from queens but gets out, phoenix still being made (3 now), +1 range for zerg and a 4th hatchery, but not a base on the way. Colossus on the way, phoenix and void rays harass the 3rd base mineral line of the zerg, which does not have any spores

10:00 stalkers kill an overseer, phoenix still being made, up to 6 now. Zerg makes a spire, and hydras spread around the zerg's bases to defend

11:00 Protoss looks like he wants to take a third, the void ray dies at the xelnaga, and a small gateway army postures at the third base. Nexus goes down, colossus + range on the way, and phoenix, only 5 now, find a roach/hydra army at the watchtower and back away

12:00 Symbol adding corruptors, +1 air range also, and more hydras. I don't think he's scouted the colossus switch, as hydras get caught by the gateway army

13:00 Twilight council now, and more colossus, as the colossus/stalker ball grows in size. Symbol's army moves toward the protoss natural, and corruptors are fighting phoenix. both colossus are sniped, FFs zone the zerg army between the third and natural.

14:00 Protoss army stuck at the third, zerg army moves into the natural, snipe a colossus and probes, do damage as a hydra army flanks the stalkers. stalkers clean it up, roaches in the main are cleaned up eventually

16:00 Blink is barely on the way, 23 workers have died. 6 corruptors are out, symbol starts his infestation pit and more hydras, takes a 4th base. Seed only warping in stalker/zealot, immortals instead of colossus. +1 carapice for zerg now

17:00 infestors and hive! Immortals still being made, both players upgrading. Creep spread is now past the watchtower, corruptors scout for any colossus/observers they can snipe, as the protoss starts pushing toward the zerg area

18:00 symbol's army postures by the tower, colossus being added once more as seed pushes. Symbol pushes first, blink forward snipes a fre things but both armies choose not to engage

19:00 Seed with 4th base, banelings and hive upgrades being added, including greater spire. lings harass the 4th, zerg main army attacks the 3rd but is forced away as both are cleaned up

20:00 Fleet beacon! More colossus, brood lords morphing and lots of spines beween the 2/3/4 bases of zerg.

21:00 Protoss army creep clears, gets storm, gets templar, symbol adds more broodlords and banelings. The zerg isn't maxed though!

22:00 zerg army attacks the protoss third, seed blinks forward and gets fungaled, backs away before losing his whole army. FFs zone ground units as symbol's army moves down the ramp

23:00 Seed snipes infestors and queens with blink, stalkers snipe what they can before seed retreats up to his 4th base. Zerg sends some units into the natural, but not much happens as broodlords seige the buildings and the protoss army is behind.

24:00 an infestor neural the mothership, zerg army now in the protoss natural, seed pushes back up with stalker/colossus and kills all that he can! zerg army cannot see the protoss army, seed cleans up the zerg army!!

25:00 ultra cavern is out, but seed remakes roach/hydra, but most of the protoss tech is out except for archon tech. Seed holds the natural, has some storms, and attacks symbol' territory

26:00 Symbol keeps attacking, corruptors attack the mothership and get vortexed! storms on most of the zerg army continue to kill the ground, but corruptors still alive

27:00 Seed keeps attacking at the third of symbol, mothership finally dies but symbol trades a lot of corruptors. Sta;ler/colossus/archon attacks the spine wall, symbol has mostly baneling/infestor and some roaches

28:00 seed has retaken his third, symbol adds ultralisk as seed pulls away from creep. more banelings are made, symbol low on minerals and both players under 140 supply

29:00 more templar for seed, he sticks at his 3rd base to defend 1 of his 2 mining bases.

30:00 stalkers warp and blink around the map to check for expands, symbol postured defensively around his bases but the creep spread is almost gone. stalkers deny an expo

31:00 protoss takes a 5th base, bottom middle position and lings find it and attack, protoss army defends it as ultras are added and another forge is added for protoss. mothership #2on the way!

32:00 Symbol adds anotehr base, seed just defending his new expand

33:00 Symbol moves across the map to threaten the new protoss army, cannons are cancelled, storms land on the ultras but fungals catch the HTs, symbol takes out the new base

34:00 mothership out, symbol upgrading again, zerg army moves around the middle of the map to hold control. seed retakes a new base

35:00 zerg army attacks up toward the prtoss army's 3rd base! mothership dies but gets a vortex, sick storms on the banelings and stalkers wreck what's left of the zerg army

36:00 protoss has a supply lead now, another robotics on the way, more infestors and ultras. zerglings harass seed's 4th, nexus goes down before seed can defend!

37:00 Seed tries to take his 5th again, probes maynarding get caught, zerglings in seed's man AND 4th, spine crawlers move forward on what's left of the creep. colsossu back out, seed pushes forward with stalkers, some zealots, an HT but fungals on the army + spine crawlers defend

38:00 zerg army pushes the protoss 5th, zerglings attack the 4th, kill lots of probes.

39:00 HT saves itself and kills a lot of zerglings, symbol takes a new base, zealot harassing it cleaned up by zerglings. zerg moves forward again, zerglings see the whole protoss army up the 5th and walk away. symbol going back into broodlords

40:00 storms on more zerglings, but both players just stay in their respective territories. Another base for symbol, but no mothership out.

41:00 3 broodlords harass the protoss 5th from the edge, they cannot be hit by the stalkers!

42:00 broodlords leave, new bases by symbol are mining agian, HTs for seed, now archons.
