Post the links of someone going mech into bio in TvT!
Shouldn't be too hard if it's so common.

It's the same type of thinking that's plagued the game from the get-go... This " Right way to play" mentality...

It's like when they were shitting on Has at WCS for playing " wrong", lol

I've seen Maru go 7 rax reapers in a fuckin GSL match vs sOO because he basically thought it looked FUN!!

My point is it's not done more because of the " IDEA" that you can't, or it's the wrong way to play, or its bad, or all this other shit imagined by people who aren't actually that good at the game.

Like I said, that match was TWO years ago, how many times you think Maru tried it in practice?
There's only so many times he can try it vs Cure in practice... Gumiho is better than Cure.....

Like his proxy builds, Maru has been doing MACRO proxy two rax builds since HOTS. Facts.
How many times you think he pulls it in practice?

His mass widow mine builds, he was the first I saw do the speed banshee build, the FIRST Terran to figure out the new Raven... It's clear the guy really gets the game on a level the other Terrans, save for TY don't.......

I guess I'm saying, you shouldn't look at that game, and assume that wasn't a legit strategy that Maru mapped out, because he's been doing it AT LEAST for TWO years..... Vs at least Terran and Zerg....

Didn't Nada do a TvZ mech into bio back in the very early days? But yeah that was a very different time.

Has this transition been done in a televised TvT match before?

Not televised, but this TvT strategy had showed up on the Korean ladder a bit prior to Maru's match, so it has been in circulation.
It looks very strong, the bio switch adds a lot of punishment tools that mech usually lacks.

I honestly didn't expect Zest to win. Hopefully he won't roll over and get destroyed by Maru this time.
