Yep, really nice hydra/lurker micro. On the other hand, the terran was pretty loose with his sci micro, and paid for it. He lost so many sci vessels just by running them over a batch of hydras.

Great game though.

In dove is known for going SK Terran, which does not involve the use of these "tanks"

I think In_Dove plays this "SK Terran" style because he cant play straight up TvZ, it really shows.
Anyone seen the paul vs dove reps? he plays so sloppy its pretty annoying that such a uncreative style can be so effective. IMO this style is very effective at beating people alot better than you because if your vessels survive until the lategame then one slipup from the zerg could mean gg.

Are you kidding? Doves TvZ is his best matchup

SKTerran is as straight up as it gets, and its MUCH harder to execute than the regular 2-3 fac tanks because it emphasize so much on your control on large M&M groups + ability to constantly use the energy on the vessels. You're right its a very good longterm strategy because terran is so good when they get alot of vessels, but saying its a way to beat people better than you is simply wrong. It's also a perfect counter to fast defilers which is VERY hard stopping with only 1 port vessel. Imo SKTerran is the best style in theory but since it's so speed-demanding you dont see many players doing it. Mostly players with 350 APM++ like Dove and Nada use it regulary, while players like Oov with around 250 APM and less rarely ever use it. Btw Dove knows how to play tanks style as well, and when he does he's going 3 facs.

i thought SK terran when played well is so much harder to play against than standard factory mm?

once the SVs reach certain #s its just impossible almost, esp with the way nada and those 300 apm terrans irradiate, you're basically losing expensive units every few seconds
