How does Tasteless still have a job. His game knowledge has been bronze tier for the entirety of HOTS. The guy probably hasn't laddered in SC2 since 2011. In that game he kept referring to how far Terran was ahead and how unbelievable it was when toss won the game...... even though the terran lost tons of supply for buildings only, and toss had a 30 supply lead when moving out. When the final engage happened the supply were close to even and the composition / fight of the toss was much better, leading to the win.

oh cmon! dear won a game that you can win in 1 out of 10 games.. maru fked up his defence and that is it, you can't call it unless you are psychic

Gotta say that the overall impression so far is still that dear looks freaking scary. He is pretty damn good

If Trap was playing that game it would have been a 2-0 :3

wow dear's build was so good, and it was thrown away because that micro. Protoss really need to learn to start flanking in those situations, especially if you are super zealot heavy.

Maybe it isn't? He was about to go collosi tech when shit started to go down. If he only made the oracle and didn't make any phoenixes maybe he would've had a collosus or 2 to defend the drop and have most of his army guard his 3rd.

and we see why unit clumping is something for skill to fix, not blizzard. such an amazing game to watch!

This. People constantly arguing that unit clumping is making SC2 less skillful seem to miss the important fact that, with micro like maru's, you can actually do so much more with your units.

Almost nobody is capable of spliting units that well, which is a testament to the high skill cap in this game.

Gotta rebuild that mothership core Dear! Couple of timewarps at the third or even just a Nexus Cannon and he can probably hold that.

It seems that when the players approach perfect micro, you need colossi to counter this small group warfare.

Man, wp by maru. I wish my micro would be 1/10 as strong as his.

Good point. Those Phoenixs really did not do much. Four of them too. It also meant a lot more Medivacs for Maru.

he had one, he rebuilt it after it died in the early game. he just didn't use it at all, probably forgot to hotkey it or something cuz he seemed to only remember he had it when Maru did the drop in his main

1 out of 10 games? Because of the composition and supply of Dear vs Maru in that engage, I'd say Dear would win 75% of the time. Maru lost too many medivacs / units to hold the attack. If he would have sniped the nexus and tech that he did and got out with the army that did so, he would have won.

Polar Night LE

Dear Spawns North
Maru Spawns South

Reaper opening for Maru
Double gas (2 probe in each) opener by Dear
Both expansion go down similar time
Reaper is poking in Dears main, gets a probe!
MSC is out now paroling Dear's base and the reaper is out of there!
Stargate down from Dear, ebay and reactor marines for Maru with a fast +1 weapon
Oracle being produced out of the stargate
Stim started for maru who is 8 workers down on Dear
Oracle comes in and kill 8 workers! Maru is in a terrible position now, his units were out on the map heading for Dear base.
Phoenix's started for Dear who has 3/4 unscouted already
11 workers killed now as the phoenix's fly in a pick off more. They soon run out after getting hit by the nicely placed widow mine.
Storm and charge started for Dear as he builds on his lead.
Maru producing as much bio as he can as he tries to catch up. 1-1 upgrades done for maru whilst +2 armor is about to finish for Dear

Storm is done!
Maru dodges the storms nicely and his bio stands up really well! Dear might of over extended...might!
3rd starts for maru as he pushes towards Dear 3rd
Supply is even! As maru engages at the 3rd. Just chargelots and templar for Dear
10 gate Dear is struggling with Maru and his bio at the moment. Maru picks up his army and 4 medivac drops the main! Dear out of position
Down goes the main nexus, and maru pushes the 3rd! Down goes the 3rd! Dear on 1base and a minimal army of zealot templar and 2 archon
Maru smells blood and pushes the 3rd with all he has! Dear is overwhelmed, he is dead!
Maru was 2-1 vs 0-2 there, that was a big turning point!

(P)

Dear 1-1

Maru

Wow seems like a great comeback from Maru, gogo Prime Terran!

I am really enjoying watching his very technical play. He does all those extra things you spot as an observer and wonder why progamers don't do it.
