How did that even happen? I see Maru up by 30 army supply, alt tab for ~5 mins and then he loses.


Maru was forced to kite/retreat to his planetary at his 4th base after being chased down by Zest's army. He had his army at hold position so they ate storms while the planetary was being attacked by the army. He basically was backed into a corner and died.


His mistake was trying to take an engagement there at the 4th without the right unit composition and then he got forced into that position which he really couldn't win.

The weakness with Maru's style is that Vikings really arne't very good in those situations where you have 5-6 of them while contantly try to army trade. Vikings functions much better when you wait untill you have critical mass before army trading.

I saw two main problems in TvP right now:
1) Blink is too strong vs vikings
2) too many small places at bases (like that maru's 4th base) -> storms are so strong in that case.

Protoss won although he gifted so many colossi during the game.
Still hardest mu for Terrans by far.


Yeah, Zest lost 2Colossi and 3zealots, while killing nearly all of the army that killed the Colossi and killing to full medivacs without losses in his main base... That was a very good trade for Zest.

Only time Maru got some worthwhile damage in was when he killed the main nexus and the robo. Meanwhile he was behind in upgrades and tech (ghost/vikings) all game long and at some points didn't even have any supply advantage, which is not a good indicator for T vs Protoss.

What on earth.

Maru lost most of his vikings to storm, not blink stalkers.

Why doesn't Maru expand more btw?

He is such an aggressive player, the protoss would never have a chance to counterattack the early fourth

In that case Maru made loads of 'slip-ups' too...

He should have formed a concave at the ramp imo, force out 2-3 storms and retreat to the PF. Then Zest will be running low on Templar energy. Though I think he just didn't have enough anymore to really make that concave happen to begin with... Tough spot when you are running low on army.

Rogue? Well that's unexpected. But it's not Action sniping him again at least.

mass marauder/marines/medivacs needs a lot of ressources and raxes to not run out of steam.

He can do this type of aggression because he invests alot into army. He If he took like a 14th minute 4th he wouldn't be able too put on the same level of aggression.

You don't benefit from an early fourth until your main is nearly exhausted.
