Do you only do it if you smell mine drop? Not TvP but last challenger day I'm pretty sure Ret never took his pocket base. I haven't seen enough to see if that's meta or not but it was rather cool. | ||

That's the Liquid Zerg meta of taking the front base first for creep spread and then forgetting the pocket expo. | ||

But Snute actually legit forgot his pocket natural in WCS vs Showtime last season. In a 45 minute game. | ||

Why I assumed Protoss were digging it in TvP is it can be sometimes hard to take your third since you need to walk down a small ramp and Terran can fairly easily contain the Protoss on 2 bases. At least thats what I do every game Vanni. | ||
