Well it takes even more skill to counter with a hellbat drop whilst deflecting opponent's hellbat drop. Which is why the skill cap is extremely high with hellbat drops. It's no coincidence that innovation, who has the best multitask and mechanics of anyone, is also the hellbatman.

Remind me not to care about another tvt ever. Innovation flash was about as uneventful and boring a match as you could hope for. It looks like just complete luck on where someone decides to drop hellbats and defender put his turrets,vikings, hellbats just kind of boring.

Yep.

Select, faster than every foreigner, says he likes the new TvT because of the required multitask.

zealot warp ins typically occur when an opponent has 3-4+ bases and both sides have 200 supply to work with. zealot warp ins punish an opponent that is too spread out and has neglected stationary defenses

hellbat drops typically occur in the early to early-mid game which have an impact on where the game goes into the mid & late game for an opponent

early game zealot warp in potential is harassment assuming the opponent isn't brain dead and can run workers away from melee ranged zealots

early game hellbat drop potential can be catastrophic due to hellbat AoE and medivac mobility

Based on Flash's luck in the Up and Downs
It's probably going to be
Innovation 2-1
Bomber 2-1
Flash 2-1
BByong 0-3 with Flash losing out on mapscore

But if Flash loses against Bomber/BByong he doesnt deserve to be in Ro8.
Thats the first time since MLG Finals where Flash looked noticeably rattled.

There is no problem that hellbats require multitasks. The problem is when hellbat dropping skill alone determine the game, so other equally important skills never come to play. Select also said that he liked using hellbats, but not defending against them.

mapscore is not a tiebreaker, they would replay stuff

Does anyone know if they are using map score as tiebreakers? I heard initial reports they are not. But it's not on the liquipedia page anymore.

That second game of flash verse innovation just felt wrong. Seeing flash down 30 scvs from like 2 drops cost him the game I mean how much skill was there in flash not being able to stop that? Seemed pretty stupid does that really mean innovation is the more skilled player?

The better player won that game, certainly. They both had the same tools available to them, Flash knew what he was in for given the prevalence of Hellbats in TvT.
