I really think people rely too much on window mines. People have figured them out pretty well, usually using free units or detectors making mines harmless.
Good post - I also figured people would discover their weakness and they would get less powerful as games went on, still they have had some good hits today.

lol agree
I think vibu also got a little bit luck with some WM shots

I do wish they followed the GSL and only had breaks between series.

At the top levels of play I don't think it's going to happen. There are other ways to buy safety.

After seeing that game, I'm a bit more changed in my opinions towards Widow Mines in the current ZvT metagame. Sure, they have their usage and definitely are a viable choice as splash damage and zoning, but the longer Zergs figure out how to micro better and exploit the cooldown, I feel they might be phased out in favor of more Siege Tanks possibly. But who knows, I'm not a pro, nor even a Masters level player ^^

it depends how there used. Mines are shit in defence compared to tanks. but in theopen field they are really good. Mines better for offence.

Not everyone is doubting. You see there are actually people with brains, in addition to your gang of conspiracy theorists.

In the Maru game I think he just left one tank at his natural and one at his third after making sure he was safe early, he didn't really use them much in his army just to defend run bys/stop all ins.

Dreamhack's stream was 60fps so MLG decided to one up them with this sick 15 fps stream.

The amount of greed in this game by both players exceeds that of Donald Trump.

the indecisiveness of that bust :/

splitting that roach based army into two fronts probably not the greatest idea

He tried to bust both locations at once and it didn't work at all.

Vibe dies now, his all-in failed.

Now time for a 10 minute long death scene. ViBE is so behind in upgrades and tech, while TheStC will end up steamrolling him with his superior army.

STC is playing really badly
