He had all the tech bases and eco, but I'm losing what should be the proper aproach to win it for squirtle lol. That's the thing, it's not rly possible. He needed to do something earlier in the game. So after being dead meat anyway, he tried different approach, and we saw the result. | ||

Xigua played decent and all, but very late game infested terran makes 200 supply limit irrelevant, which is the only time Carriers are possible. Yet Squirtle still has the guts to go Carriers in his late game PvZ's. Major props to that ^^ | ||

The unstoppable force that you come up against again and again is that its precisely within LR that people can observe together supposed imbalances in the game. Actual balance threads while serving a needed purpose are stale in comparison in capturing that communal observation in real time. | ||

So after being dead meat anyway, he tried different approach, and we saw the result. It is possible. If he didn't take a lousy engagement into the zerg army and wasn't so archon heavy (maybe get 2-3 colo instead at that point to get range on infestors/static defense) he would have been in a decent spot to win. Zerg's bank was crippled so at the end of the day there's only gonna be 1 zerg army and with good positioning/ defensive vortexes and picking off pieces of the army he can take it down. For much cleaner examples of the carrier transition, see Squirtle vs Lucky from last week's GSTL or Rain vs Killer from BWC on daybreak. | ||
