The reason he looks so good when the games hits that point is because when he isn't getting busted and punished, he goes into the mid-game with an extreme advantage due to a greedy opening, and he converts that huge mid-game advantage into big damage and snowballs into the late game if it even lasts that long. He executes his mid-game well, but I don't think he's actually as mind blowing as people give him credit for. It's mostly just really solid consistent play IF his opponent lets him take the upper hand. | ||

So Innovation is just ahead by default if they play a macro game, so he can absolutly afford the extra 1-2 tanks squeezed in and delay his ebays slightly. Instead he chose to go for the most greedy fuck in the book, after scouting that his opponent already had a clock on him. What kind of nonsense is this? You're not "ahead by default" at all if your opponent went fast gas... | ||

I believe TheDwf made a great post explaining why you must open with an ultra sharp build against zerg that's close to greediness if you want not to be rolled later into the game. | ||

Except you have no "extreme advantage" since Zerg also gets his ups at the same time + 75 drones at 10'. | ||
