WM is only "like" a caster in that its a big gamble - jackpot or bust It's also like a spell caster in that it's a spell caster. But hey, details. That's wrong, it isn't. You don't cast spells. It's spell damage, doesn't make the unit a spellcaster.
When its only method of attacking is a method that deals spell damage, it's a caster, energy be damned.

I'm becoming a Journey fan, unfortunate we might never see him again

Pretty clear that this entire game was prepared by Journey rather than a last minute strategy out of desperation. It's pretty smart when you think about it:
Since Journey was able to secure the Gold as his main base, suddenly taking Base 3 (and 2 along the way) is much easier, especially with the buildings in the middle of the map. If you were to traditionally expand from your main to the gold, you'd have a lot more issues with space control + he's able to take both bases faster, which is why Journey has a supply lead right now.
Artosis dismissing a gold lift, when really it's a well thought out strategy.

Holy crap, I come back to see Journey make it through vs Dear. Can anyone give me a recap of the games, please?
First game Dear macro kills Journey, second game Journey bunkers inside Dear's main and Dear is too indecisive in defending, third game Dear goes for 5-VR + Gate pressure but Journey holds and runs him over. Dear definitely didn't play the best SC of his career.

Agreed there is a strategic, positional advantage for base progression. Your more-established new main (gold) is now a defensive line to protect your two expansions.
But: you are MUCH closer to your opponent, who gets a mining head start. That makes you substantially more vulnerable in the opening. I think the question is how long you need to survive to make the gold-first worth it? 5 min? 7 min? 10 min?

This is probably why he went for the double bunker contain at ByuL's ramp. He barely contested the spinecrawler break.

Oh well, it's about the journey, not the destination.
