Supply lead is slowly snowballing in favor of Polt.

Messy game, but Polt pulls it out through the power of OCs and Widow Mines.

That's not surprising.


He did have detection when Polt ran 10 mines straight into his army and blew it up though. Didn't make much of a difference.

Speed boost medivacs are not bad either.

Well at that point Polt was already ahead and had held off the all-in. It was over at the recall, imo.

Those mines weren't actually terribly effective, the same supply in marines would've done the same thing and more. Polt just already had a good lead at that point that quickly snowballed out of control.

They 1 shot more than half of Creator's army... not terribly effective.. 1 shot... not effective... OK...

I have a feeling heavy bio, mass drops with bio+widowmine going to be a fucking nasty all around strategy in the hands of KR terrans. Multi drops effective again with some unit changes, and that medivac boost is going to make the multidrops insane to deal with. Lift and boost to another base, lift and boost, lift and boost.

I haven't followed much HotS, but I'm intrigued... I love bio... I love multi prong drops.

No in game sound is kind of annoying

Think Polt will take this, 5-3

One shot and do nothing after that, and they didn't kill "more than half of his army", just the MSC and a few zealots/stalkers.

Seriously this widow mine whining is getting out of control. Try doing what Polt did in a situation where the armies are equal and you'll see how widow mines aren't as OP as some of you people would like to believe.

Now imagine he had the same supply but with banelings. Same shit.

Creator saw those mines coming (~2sec) and they had to burrow (4sec). He had plenty of time to retreat or try to kill some.

So far, a pretty sloppy series. Hope both of them pick it up.

Hey IPL - I am watching from the UK. Unfortunately I hardly ever get Commercials when I am watch your streams. Not sure whether you can change that though.

Surprised we're not seeing more and more drop play. how do you prevent afterburners from being effective without a significant investment. Very quick tech up by creator.
Might be too greedy?

edit: surprised it took so long for Polt to do that drop.

I would like a couple of phoenix to deny drop play after you secure your third, but maybe that's too much of an investment
