He doesn't really have to. He's ahead in the war of attrition. He's just going to drag it out

I wouldn't really say he's ahead in the war of attrition. Rain can mine just as much as him

Well he had just taken a bunch of unfavorable losses imo so he had lost more of his money. But he has a solid main army so if he takes some good fights he'll be fine

I thought I hated protoss deathballs

I actually love it now. It feels like that villain you've always hated who turned out to be a good guy, protecting you against true evil. Protoss deathball is god damn Snape.

Edit: OH WOW HE PICKED OFF THAT GOLD BASE that was realllly impressive! so much skill from firecake

this is truly foreigner starcraft

E: btw isn't it funny that vipers can insta-kill the mothership which is like the lynch pin of protoss late game?

Firecake just doesn't care. He'll play this to 2 hours if necessary.

My fear is for when they trade armies. Firecake is gonna get much more to remax than rain.

And now rain has to wait for another mama core thats so many minutes.

yeah, I'm really hyped for LotV because of things like that, Zerg might not have to play SH anymore and it might actually be interesting to play vs skytoss or mech (or, if we're lucky, all of this will just die)

Rain must realize that none of these maneuvers will amount to anything.

Firecake is playing the a game of fatigue basically.

What other options does Zerg have vs late game Toss? Swarm Hosts are a necessary evil.

Its a fundamental attitude problem towards how the game is played.

In Korea it is more play to win. In Europe it is more play to not lose. Of course there are players on both regions that play against that type, but thats the general way of it.

I don't think this is harder than how Dark plays

It is more passive and requires more patience
