it's Dark not Rogue. Rogue plays the same build 3-4 times and it still works.

It was actually too loud to hear what Dark said so I hope it wasn't the exact opposite

I have to say people always complain about strategy not being that important in this RTS game but Dark's run is from top to bottom has been on the back of very sound strategies even if the execution wasn't always on point.

Might as well just call me out by name, smh
There is a reason Dark is my favourite player left in the scene, though.

The way the Creep interacts with the river fords isn't especially pleasant though .
I bear this sig to commemorate the loss of the team icon that commemorated Oversky's 2008-2009 Proleague Round 1 performance.

Strategy is really important in SC2.

People who complain that it doesn't, and that they lose despite having "better strategy" just because their opponents have better execution, often have 7/10 strategy and 4/10 execution while their opponents have 6/10 strategy and 7/10 execution.

Guess what, a bit better planning/strategy doesn't make up for much worse execution.

It was certain the moment Rogue got eliminated. It had to be a zerg, so Dark was the only candidate left

Of course we all knew there was never a way back into the game for Maru after he lost his reaper to a slow ling surround.

I think people who complain it doesn't are just people who want to tell themselves they are strategic masterminds but don't have the time to grind their mechanics which is why they are stuck in bronze
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

Or people who complain about strategy are people that dislike the lack of diversity in the way games look at top level sc2, that could be it too.

I'm pretty sure you can get to Diamond with no mechanics just on the basis of mediocre strategy.

Otherwise, how did I get there?

lack of diversity doesn't mean strategy doesn't matter at all.
There is still so much strategy just in unit movements, tech switches, scouting patterns, attack timings, decision-making when to harass and when to attack etc etc..
