I mean I'm sure the exact meaning of mechanics is debatable, but denying bases is not based on your mechanical abilities any less than microing. | ||

I have this negative and false idea that Terran is the wrong race to do that with, but this series is proving me wrong. You CAN totally beat inferior opponents with just pure macro with the race. And then you try it yourself and you get steamrolled by a hive rushing zerg because successfully maintaining pressure like this for so long is actually really hard. It is nice that he is running units around and isn't simply dropping in 5 areas. Feels like it's more attainable to a normal player | ||
