Maru found innovations weakness: Strategy's so old no one ever uses them, so he'd never expect or practice for them.

Season 1? Oh I see, we don't count that as Korean

Does it? It felt more like a global tournament held in korea then it did a korean tournament with weeks to prepare for each player.

Such bullshit. In tvt u need to stay on 1base longer to even have a chance to survive until 2bases... this is since hots and the hellbatpatch didnt change this fact.


No. You don't need to stay longer on one-base. The elevator could have been held, he lost a mine, cancelled the tank. It was a terrible hold.

THANK YOU


I still disagree with your statement about INnoVation.

Which one i have made so many


That he doesn't play well rounded builds and prefers to flip a coin. You can't be save against everything as Terran, in no match up. It just doesn't work or not on pro-level if you are not a billion times better and can play from behind. You have to pick some stuff you want to defend but defending against special stuff and all of it, cannot happen. Getting a turret will give a bit of safety against widowmine drops and banshees, its not a coin toss but a smart adjustment to his build.

If no banshee or widowmine drops occur, he'll be a bit behind or even as he took his expansion, but no coin toss by any means. Very solid all around (just what you wanted)

Okay i'll revert my earlier statement, your arguement seems fair

I don't consider it a 'korean tournament' as such.

It's just a tournament held "somewhere" rather than traditionally 'korean'

Innovation's data banks don't go back that far it seems. Need to upgrade his hard drives.
I will reduce you to a series of numbers.

Canceling a tank isn't micro. Maru went for early game builds because he felt that was the best way to beat innovation, not because he knows his micro is better. Micro doesn't matter when you get out build ordered and out mindgamed.

I think the builds aren't the problem, He just has a really problem adapting properly, as the cancelled tank showed and continuous hellion building in game 1.

His early game denfense is not as good as his mid-late game. And I'm really happy to see Maru prepared and is exploiting that.
