it is a fantastic game. CoD and CS:GO aren't even close to being the same. Also there's no such thing as "foreigners" with csgo. Its a game that has very strong teams from several different regions of the world, not just all dominated by one small country.

that scan at the end, Taeja didn't know about the 4th this whole time that's such a mistake, he could have killed it if he had gone for it when he did his first push

How could Taeja not realize it's there? He saw even drones transferring there with his widow mine, even killed a drone on the way to the 4th.


Tunnel vision, high pressure, the fact that it was a CC first vs a roach bust and it's very hard to know where you and your opponent are in such games, pick the one you like...

I'm 90% he didn't know, why would he have scanned though? he probably thought that Dark was all in on 3 bases.

a lot of Terrans do that, maybe he just wanted to see how many drones were there



yeah that's why I m only 90% sure maybe he wanted to check the gazes too...

Taeja actually did an excellent job defending that early roach push; Going cc first into hellion 3 cc is basically a build order loss to quick roaches like that

I find it hard to believe to be honest - especially with the production Dark had, he should even through that realize 4th is mining. And seriously, that one mine saw bunch of drones going to the 4th few times before Dark even realized it was there.

The creep spread just threw him off I think. There was no creep between his 3rd and 4th and most Zerg take the other base as their 4th, and TaeJa did scan that one.

was he watching the mine though? because I don't think he was.

Not sure, could be he missed that. But it's not like the mine was there for 5seconds, it was there for at least a minute or so, you would think he would just see it on minimap.

Oh well, doesn't matter now.

he could have thought those are just units too, hard to say.
terran usually don't care about left over mines unless it is in the mineral lines.

CS has been a thing for like ~15 years now, especially European scenes are very well developed, it's really no surprise to see it doing well. How they milk the community with the new installment, though, bothers me to no end.
