This game showed how cost effective terran bio with mules is. Impressive play by Action nonetheless, but combined cost of drops + nyduses + hive tech killed him. WHy is Blizzard limiting this game by insane cost of nydus is beyond me..

i mean action never got a supply lead even after killing 50 scvs
that was pretty foreboding of how the game was going


Pretty much, but damn that was cool. Fast 3 CC let Innovation catch back up really quickly with Mules/Triple production.



Well, Swarm hosts are overpriced for mid tier units anyway, so you dont get that supply easily.

Zerg gave EVERYTHING he had (even droppin) against Terran and didn't even scratch him. I know Innovation is a godly player but this shows that Terran is just OP in some aspects. like 50 workers lost.... NP!

User was warned for this post



how does this show balance? the zerg did economy harass but ignored the army and died...

that's like if a zerg made only mutalisks and no lings or blings to deal with the army. you won't win by just fighting workers most games

meh casters hype the loser again and again... Huk yesterday. today action.. If they just look at supply or upgrades it's not even close games. -.-

entertainin game. action showed some cool harass but i feel like this relies on the terran trying harder to defend than attack for it to work


To be fair that is their job to keep game interesting.

Ah, people, lay off the casters this time. I think they were just intended to focus on where the action was and Action was doing exciting things you don't see too often, so they focussed on his perspective. I'm not sure they really meant to suggest he was way ahead and SNM WAS right that keeping that base could prove critical, but enough damage actually WAS dealt too (I believe) and Bogus was just excellent.

I just dont get how innovation does it. It seemed to me like action was doing all the right moves, so many scv died, bogus still steamrolls. He is so good.


I think a big thing is that nothing dents him. He can lose 40 SCVs in entirely unexpected baneling bombs and not give a shit...he'll still be playing at 100% capacity, relentlessly macroing and recognizing and utilizing every advantage he can take.

Actions early game was really good though in my opinion, anticipating where the hellions would go and getting early Overlord speed to deny mines was fun to watch.

But after that he went into really ineffective trades all game long.

Am I the only person who didn't see this game as being close at all? Action was -30 supply the whole game but the commentators were acting like it was dead even. 40+ SCV kills and still didn't get near his supply.


I feel exactly the same way. The commentators aren't calling these games well at all. Whiplash keeps talking about the "high level" of play in this game, but it was really just Innovation taking apart Action left and right. Cute stuff from action, but this game was never close.

Did you miss Bogus losing 40+ scvs? Granted he's terran, and his units are insanely cost effective so it doesn't really matter, but yeah, Action did MAJOR damage with the baneling drop. It's just that terran doesn't need scvs nearly as much as the other races need their harvesters.

I think its because they think Nydus is too OP. As in, guys with poor map awareness succumb to them too well.

The depressing thing was that innovation never skipped a beat. At no point in time was it ever close. Even when scvs were wiped out from all three bases.

Action's spell-heavy ZvT play towards the end of BW was incredible, it's good to see him try and emulate it in HOTS ZvT.

I hope this style of Zerg is a glimpse into what the future holds. It looks difficult to pull off, but it is beautiful to watch so many variations in attack in one game. I think against less mechanically robust Terrans he could've won.

you must take into consideration at what time the terran expanded and for how long he saturated the bases, even though he got harassed he had a steady income base for a long time. He had time to build both infrastructure and had enough CC to rebuild the mineral income that is the only thing needed in late game to smash a zerg.
