Maru did do proxy reapers/proxy marines every game in HotS on maps where it was OP. Maru/INnoVation are the 2 top Terran players and the rest isn't that good at TvZ tbh. At least not at top level. And I think 3rax reaper gets much weaker at weaker levels of competition (tho uThermal/Kelazhur still abuse it with success). My point is, the build might not be prevalent, but that's because the players who could pull it off, don't need to. ByuN is the only Korean that isn't very good at 4M and very good with reapers. | ||

Kelazhur beat Dark with mass reapers in an online cup like a week or so ago Dark dropped a game but won the series. | ||

They were both in Korea so it doesn't make much difference. | ||

ByuN on the other hand relies the most on his micro, so ofc it makes sense that he would want to stake everything on early-game micro. Are you implying ByuN is scared of macro games or something? xd. It's just that he is the most confident with 3rax reaper, plus he can win faster if the opponent messes up badly, which is a good point. 3 rax reaper is quite flexible if you do it right, and challenging so funny to play! | ||

Even in the game vs Solar he had trouble closing it out on close spots Honorgrounds | ||

Are you implying ByuN is scared of macro games or something? xd. Not at all, it's just like you said. ByuN's strongest point is his micro, even though his macro is still top-tier. Kind of like how Innovation gets no credit for his micro despite having sick micro just because his macro is so awesome. | ||

Sick of these bullshit excuses when your other bullshit "only byun" fails. Tons of mediocre terrans got free wins with this build throughout the year especially on the frozen temple- galactic process season. This map pool is not favoring it that much so we don't see it much often. But a player like Byun that relies mostly on his micro still does it almost every single tvz. | ||
