EPTThose things deal insane damage to just about anything that gets into their range and don't really die against low tech units. Maybe they'll have to be pushed back even further. Early Hellbats is not just strong in TvT . This is pretty strong in TvP as well. In TvZ you can't open with 1 Base Hellbat drop but once you made sure your not too far behind in eco you can start dropping them all around as well.

If he defended one more time like the first I think LucifroN would have stopped and wited until Center's attention would be elswhere on the map. Simply a case of the rewards outweighing the risks when you invested this much into hellbats/1 base play. | ||

Hyun seems like a poor choice to em but I guess we will have to see. he was already trying to blind counter lucifrons build. After shutting down the first drops pretty good he didnt expect lucifron to just bang his head against the wall again so he just salvaged the bunker and his defense. but your gonna be behind if you play too safe because lucifron is on 3 base pretty fast and you cant move out. because the mech player can also build some widow mines and then you cant scan all the way to your opponent. so at the moment i havent seen anybody who has found a good response to hellbat drops except doing it yourself and hoping you handle it better than your opponent. | ||
