Things looked quite even until the last moments when drops ripped the eco apart.

He doesn't have the right stuff to deal with it. He needs either insane amounts of static defense, or he has to keep mutas around to stop these drops.

I don't like roach ravager vs Polts style. It just feels like you can never get ahead with all his medivacs flying around.

It's an easy transition if you started out with marine/tank, it's also a good emergency response if the ultras come out with plating before you have enough starports (and liberators) and a ghost academy.

MoMaN doesn't know how powerful the ultra is, the French stream is hilarious.

It's not only about the drops though. Nerchio gots obliterated at the frontal attack by Liberators because he has no answer for them. Without libs, most of his army would have survived and it wouldn't really have mattered that Polt killed most of his bases.

ravagers, they are most cost efficient unit vs liberators

Thors are awesome at my level (gold), because they require zero micro beyond occasional focus firing to be effective, unlike ghost liberator. 80 damage per shot with +3 mech weapons means that ultra armor does pretty much nothing.

As I said earlier, these games are super reminiscent in style of Polt's TvP in HotS. The semi basetrade into dropping all your opponents bases and winning that way is exactly the same.

It was like this one, but Nerchio was doing way better with a spire opening to handle the drops
