Serral saw the Ghost count and just said "nah, I don't need Lurkers for this." Byun's Ghosts turned into really expensive Marines.

Pretty solid match! Feels like ByuN was just 5% short of cracking Serral's defense—maybe the smaller map will push him over the edge in game 2.
AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?

Yup.

Sucks doesn't it?

Hard choice, because if Byun waits with the ghost transition until after Serral builds a load of lurkers, he probably loses an army and a base to lurkers and he's dead anyway. I just think that Serral defended far too well to Byun's non-stop aggression, and he had a huge advantage at that point already.

There's a really high chance (probably 80%+) that Maru will have to win three TvZ in a row, Solar + Serral + Dark/Raynor.
I.e. up to 17 games of TvZ on highest possible level, in 1 day.
I'd rate his chance to win at 5% at best, even at his best level.

facing multiple zergs in a single day just seems so hard for terran and protoss, you run out of builds fast

His only realistic chance of not facing 3 Zergs in a row is to face 2 Zergs in a row and then conclude the day playing against herO.

Not sure which road is harder.

Yea now Byun has the opposite problem. These Lurkers are just wrecking him because he doesn't have Ghosts ready yet.

man it does feel obnoxious that Serral can throw away like ten roaches in the early game and still be as solid as that
