on this map showtime usually goes voidrays(sometimes mass carrier afterwards) or phoenix opening, both suck against fast burrowing widowmines, I think MaSa's build was quite good to counter that tbh

That's when you rush out the upgrade that makes mines burrow faster. It's a build INnoVation came up with in late HotS. I think it's winrate in LotV pro games is 0% though.

Rule number 1 in TvP : Don't even try to bullshit against protoss first.Let they do it and you can do later.

Yes captain, I undrestand the meaning of words drilling claws and rush, however I don't really see the point in doing that. Like if that burrow time is so important ...

In that polt vs elazer game, polt is behind the whole game, elazer gets his ultra with no trouble at all, and then Polt wins.


Elazer just played terrible throughout the whole series as well. Kept spewing units and taking bad engagements over and over. He comes out as someone with poor judgement.

It's for mine drops. Every good Protoss pulls probes and takes almost no damage. With drilling claws it's hard to do it in time.

It's pretty much cheese.

fast burrow mine builds are kind of the terran version of drop disruptor openings, except that you die before the upgrade finishes XD
