Looks like Squirtle is going for the new colossus/chargelot 3 base all in.

Corruptors.

They all evaporated.

For all the "Taeja still almost lost" whine, well yeah, if you choose to play a game like that, where you want to starve Zerg after he already has BL/Infestor, you're choosing to allow the premier spell caster in the game to reach max energy. Imagine playing a TvZ in BW if you chose to just never attack and let defilers sit there and reach full energy. They would fuck you up when you finally engaged.

If you're going to allow 25+ infestors to chill around for 20 minutes, you have to expect that kind of engagement... and there's so many ways to limit the Zergs gas. Drops force banelings/infestor support. Little groups of marine/marauder flanks can force wasted fungals, etc...

Or you can sit and build a Sky Terran army and aim to win the one big mega engagement against 30 full energy Infestors.

Which Taeja did.

Dude, pls link me to the game u just saw,
cause if you saw a game where Taeja didn't denie 20x bases and gas mining and forced several banelings to die to some marines (which is basically what you just said he should do) and also caught a lot of fungals before the fight with his marines...

And yeah he STILL almost lost his army.

I agree with how you personally feel Khaldor. Squirtle does belong in Code S. I hope this is the start of his road back.

Why vote no?

1. ending was anticlimatic
2. Terran almost lost this if infested terrans were casted earlier or some neurals have gone up. Which shouldn't be the case after dominating 45 mins and having the theorycraft hardcounter units to the zerg units


1) Was a long game where very little happened
2) Zerg did nothing
3) Taeja's most exciting move was building every unit in the book
4) thennnn the ending was anticlimatic
5) Balance actually a moot point.

Didn't enjoy it because it wasn't enjoyable. 200/200 armies smashing into each other with poor control isn't fun to watch. If some shit got neuraled and missiles went off and yamatos were clutch and a nuke was going off else where and a zergling run by happened etc then I'd definitely recommend in spite of the nothing game before the battle.

yeah I agree.
Before I played mi absolutely first Starcraft Game I thought of games to be epic when there are 2 huge armies battling it out.
But since I played a few years now, I think different and I like to see some skill overall ;-)


I just want to see terran get all the cool stuff. It's so rare, sadly.

No duh, but you had to SACRIFICE units to consume. You don't have to sacrifice units for Infestors to reach full energy.

I am kinda Sad dark didn't pull something out of his hat. Taeja had an absurd bank so it was pointles but it would have been hilarious if that 30 infestor army made magic happen.

He didn't micro his drops as well as he could have. Let a lot of them just die to a-move rolling banelings. He could have killed Dark's third base so many times with drops because of the amount of focus Dark had to put on holding his 4th/5th, but he never chose to do that either.
