It's just on maps like that with pocket bases that 10p bane is a LOT stronger. | ||

I am not arguing that there actually can't be BO wins, but the notion that there isn't skill involved is nonsense. You don't have to play as greedy as possible, sure, it might be better if it works out in the end, but there is always a safer build which doesn't lose you automatically the game. You also can hold 10 pool bane with hatch first, it was shown before. | ||

Of course he didn't have to do that, he was way too greedy. | ||

I think vaani is one of the best maps to hold it on due to maplength and because if you scrap up some semi-defense, you still get to hold your natural, while if you take damage on other maps, the speedling follow up kills the nat and then you are just further behind. | ||
