should have done more with swarm hosts and drops. Would have been nice to see him be more aggressive with Roach/Hydra early on and not build Corruptors.

such crazy multi-task and apm I once saw that, but with an extra base on Metropolis vs Parting in his Fight Club run. Genuinely never seen more impressive play

TvTs like this are so much fun to watch, hopefully we'll get to see more with the hellbat nerf.

The caster with Apollo is awesome by the way.

Damn it, that Aussie is mopping the floor with Polt :o
|
Damn, iaguz had no turret rings in his base. a huge huge mistake.

This isn't the famous Maynard of mining fame right, he's a Yank iirc?
Have enjoyed his casting a lot, but a small part of me is disappointed that he isn't the father of such a revolutionary RTS concept
