That game was worth re-watching JUST to watch Nathanias slowly comign to the realization that "this is happening".

That Overlord wanted to hide his shame of being picked off by a Viking, so it hid behind the minimap.

EDIT: Holy shit, he did it!

Illusion played really well and doesn't care about clearing no creep. Violet just couldn't keep up with the drawn out engagements.

People never really think about the food options that are a bit between TGI Fridays and fast food, like Habit Burger. ToD would be alright with that.

I missed game one and the start of game 2, but Illusion was down and out, with something like 20 workers against 4 base zerg. He succeeds in sniping one of Violet's key upgrades, and then goes out for a final push, while mutas dived into his main and starting killing what was left of his economy. He attacked the zerg third on overgrowth while Violet didn't have baneling speed and split well, while the marauders seemed to be baneling magnets. At the natural Illusion's remaining marines cleaned up most of the mutas which sat over them for a while at the third Illusion beat down streams of lings and roaches with excellent control. Violet tried to go for a final hold with his few remaining mutas and whatever troops he could muster between the natural and the downed third, but illusion now on only 11 SCVs kills Violet's forces with his remaining marines, and Violet taps out.

In game 3 after a fairly standard opening illusion pushes in really really deep on creep with marines marauder hellbat medivac, as Violet tries to get mutas, and denies the fourth. With prolonged reinforcements from illusion, and additionally fairly bad baneling connections on hellbats and marauders mainly due to illusion's great pulling back with his marines, illusion destroys Violet's forces and wins the series.

Game 2 is the game that really should be watched while game 3 was just fairly straightforward solid play and excellent control from illusion.

How is the 1st map bad luck? He built the bunker right in CC range......... More like poor execution / not enough practice.

Yup, definitely throwing this series on purpose. Maybe he feels like he has no chance to beat Masa so he's choosing builds that will end quickly and / or he thinks Masa has a better chance in China.
