ForGG goes for a pressure build on two bases without a third CC. VortiX defends successfully with ling/baneling while teching to mutas. ForGG is unprepared for the mutas and gets harassed as he takes a third. He tries to attack again, but VortiX successfully defends. With mutas over his production line uncontested, he goes for a final attack adding in hellbats, but VortiX defends easily.

![Zerg (Z)](https://tl.net/tlpd/images/Zicon_small.png)
ForGG gets fast 3CCs this time and game is pretty standard with ForGG taking the 10 o'clock 3rd base. He manages to snipe the 4th base at the 8 o'clock of VortiX immediately after it goes up. VortiX harasses with mutas again, but ForGG is more prepared this time with turrets. A back and forth game with army trades with both players not splitting well so widow mines and banelings are effective. VortiX is trying to get a 4th/5th base and ForGG is just staying on 3 bases with constant pressure. VortiX loses all his mutas when it got trapped between the main and the third. ForGG keeps on pressuring the 4th at the 8 o'clock position and VortiX runs out of steam and taps out when it was clear he was going to lose the base.

ForGG uses a similar build to game one where he goes for production instead of a 3rd CC. VortiX going for a roach/baneling bust with a third hatch at the 9 o'clock. ForGG's hellions finds the roaches on the way so he has some time to prepare, but VortiX still breaks through. ForGG manages to hold with an SCV pull and VortiX goes back to droning with his worker lead. ForGG counters and almost breaks the natural, but VortiX just manages to have enough to defend even with no baneling speed. ForGG goes for a final attack but fails so he gg's.

Bunny spawns at the 7 o'clock and goes for a reaper expand with CC on the high ground. Grubby at the 1 o'clock goes for gateway expand followed by a stargate. Bunny tries to pressure with marine/widow mine and Grubby defends really easily and gets a supply lead after Bunny loses everything. Bunny sits back and gets a third CC while Grubby techs to chargelot/archon and gets 8 gateways. Bunny pressures again as he takes his third. Grubby defends but not well enough to counter for the win so he starts his own third. Bunny gets ghosts and manages to take out Grubby's third and natural by splitting his forces. Grubby gg's when Bunny's forces at his natural goes up to his main.

Grubby spawns at the 11 o'clock position while Bunny spawns at the 5 o'clock position. Standard game with similar fast expand openings, but Grubby gets a robotics instead. Grubby goes for a two base immortal push with 3 gates, but Bunny's marine/widow mine pressure spots it very early. Bunny mismanages the repair (ran out of money) and loses his natural and Grubby keeps pushing up the ramp until Bunny gg's.

Grubby spawns at the 5 o'clock position and opens the same as game 1 with stargate. Bunny spawns at the 7 o'clock with a CC first at the low ground. Grubby gets an oracle and gets a few SCVs. He follows it up with a robotics for colossus and double upgrade. Bunny pressures with some bio before the first colossus. Grubby manages to defend but loses the colossus. Bunny keeps pressuring, but the gateway units are enough to defend with the one oracle until another colossus came out. Despite being ahead, Bunny sits back on his three bases and only goes out to snipe Grubby's third base. Bunny maxes out and goes for an attack and takes out Grubby's third, but loses a lot of units to storms and colossi. Grubby is patiently defending and manages to take out Bunny's army with some great storms. He has a supply lead, but still doesn't have enough to confidently attack into Bunny. Grubby constantly harasses with warp prisms at the main and is doing a lot of damage adding in DTs. The damage is too much and Bunny gg's with no major engagement.

Grubby spawns at the 1 o'clock position with a gateway expand and delayed second gas. VortiX spawns at the 7 o'clock
position with a fast expand to a quick third. Grubby gets a robo and harasses with a sentry drop. VortiX spots it early and defends easily. Grubby takes his 3rd. VortiX techs to a roach/hydra/viper composition while he takes his 4th at the 6 o'clock. Grubby gets templar archives and takes a hidden 4th at the 5 o'oclock main base. VortiX mismicroes and loses 2 of his 3 vipers but gets all of Grubby's colossi. VortiX tries to pressure the third, but Grubby defends easily and manages to snipe the 4th base at the same time with some zealots in a warp prism. VortiX switches to ultras and pushes Grubby's army out of the middle of the map. Grubby pulls back to his third and defends successfully while harassing VortiX's third with more zealots. Grubby has his 5th base up at the 3 o'clock while VortiX tries to get his own 5th at the 9 o'clock., but is denied by some zealots. VortiX attacks Grubby's 5th, but loses his entire army doing no real damage. Grubby snipes the 3rd and the 4th with some DTs. VortiX goes for another push at Grubby's 5th and manages to break through. VortiX keeps rolling and takes out the 3rd. Grubby is down to the hidden base at a 40 supply deficit while VortiX is trying to reestablish his 6 o'clock 4th and his 3rd base. VortiX keeps pushing Grubby's natural but can't break him. Grubby pushes out but VortiX's army is too much and finally breaks the natural. Grubby gg's.

Grubby spawns in the 11 o'clock position with a forge on the natural. VortiX spawns at the 5 o'clock position with a hatch first. Grubby goes for a cannon rush and VortiX tries to defend with spine crawlers. Grubby commits with more cannons and takes out the hatchery. VortiX tries to counter with lings but Grubby walls off in time and VortiX is going for a baneling bust. First bust gets through with a few speedlings into Grubby's main. VortiX attempts a second bust on the new wall-off and is successful with a few lings in the main once again but Grubby creates another wall. A final bust for VortiX doesn't make it through and he gg's.

Grubby spawns at the 1 o'clock position with a standard gateway expand. VortiX spawns at the 7 o'clock position and also opening standard. So much for standard, Grubby goes for a HuK YOLO with +1 attack and 6 gates. VortiX manages to defend and Grubby is getting a dark shrine while behind. VortiX just counters with roach/ling and Grubby is unable to hold.

Bunny spawns at the 10 o'clock position and ForGG spawns at the 5 o'clock position. Bunny opens with cloaked banshees while ForGG goes for rax, cc, fact with reactor. Cloaked banshee only kills one marine and forces one scan. ForGG gets a lot of hellions and spots Bunny's 1-1-1 push with banshee, raven, tank and marines. ForGG defends with a cloaked banshee. Bunny keeps sending in cloaked banshees to try and harass while he gets his own (very behind) natural. ForGG makes more hellions with viking, banshee, and raven against Bunny's tank, marine, banshee. ForGG wipes Bunny's push and goes for a counterattack. Bunny doesn't have enough and gg's.

Grubby spawns in the 7 o'clock position and opens standard. ForGG spawns in the 1 o'clock position and opens with a quick third CC. Very passive game with Grubby teching to colossus and ForGG teching towards standard bio play. Both players trying to establish their thirds, but Grubby focused too much on a drop and was unable to defend his third. Behind in every way, Grubby pushes towards ForGG's third and gets a lift before recalling. ForGG attacks with a max army and crushes Grubby's army. Grubby gg's.

Grubby spawns in the 10 o'clock position. ForGG spawns in 5 o'clock position. Both opening the same way with ForGG going for the same greedy 3rd CC. Grubby trying to punish with an immortal bust. ForGG preparing with 6 bunkers. Grubby can't break it, so he tries to elevator with 2 sentries and an immortal. Does a bit of damage and gets a cancel on stimpack. Grubby gets one colossus with thermal lance and breaks the natural. ForGG doesn't have enough and gg's.

ForGG spawns at the 7 o'clock position. Grubby spawns at the 5 o'clock position. Standard build for ForGG this time with 3 rax. Grubby also opens standard expand followed by a stargate. Grubby tries to harass with an oracle, but doesn't accomplish much. Grubby gets a third at the 3 o'clock position and techs to templars. Grubby sets himself ready for a strong push with 3 bases, but a widow mine drop ruins his plans and he goes for upgrades and back to probes. ForGG goes for hellbat production to counter the zealot/storm. Grubby pushes before there are enough hellbats and storms ForGG's army to death. ForGG eventually holds, but Grubby does a lot of damage. Grubby pulls back to wait for his colossus and pushes once more to finally get the gg from ForGG.
