This map is so hard for both to accomodate to their needs. Which were killed more often, overlords or reavers? The races are both close to their capacity and just can't really support it. They try to expand horizontally and vertically. Protoss shifts to templars and reavers that are now supporting and shielded instead.

The map ends up being split horizontal. Zerg got lurker and defiler but this allows a devious protoss tactic. Using up all storms on dark swarmed areas archons are fused and there gets to be half a lot suddenly.

After twenty minutes they finally have +2 upgrades but with good spread and major plagues all protoss aggression gets repelled. There are too many Zerg bases. Protoss might get to a point where they have to care not about where to attack but just have to do it anywhere. Well anywhere there will be a Zerg base.

Seems like Zerg will overcome.

Around thirty minutes the first dark templar? of the battle embarks

Protoss is in a bad situation. The choke suddenly suffocates them. To some high templars the swarming of the high-tech zerg felt light years long for some cannons it was but a moment.

It is an excellent upgrade that Reavers can unionise and and now support a lot of defense. Too much terrain to roam still and there is the right bottom area that is cut off and the 6 o'clock protoss base is sieged and punished.

The map is leaking zerg. Disgusting smell is steaming from monitors. Protoss mostly is now just white noise.

SK had so many money plagues and lurkers under swarm that everything but archons constantly get annihilated

That looked so cost efficient from Mini in the end there he held on so long, but the zerg just never stopped

The vile contain of zerg spawned a zerg base behind the protoss holdout.

The more furious protoss collective mindspace is the more archons are in an army. And more and more small battalions of protoss tribes connect around the bottom right as they sacrifice themselves on lurker grounds. The way Mini commands and re-structures is beautiful and really effective there is a crystal-second chance that he might stake a comeback. +3/+2/+2 vs. 75% of the map consumed by Zerg.

This game was a gigantic battle but it is too sad to see two out of two toss loss.

It's gonna be a 4 - 0 isn't it? Not surprising given the players form recently

It would have been funny if the battery shields came into play just after Nyoken and eonzerg mentioned it in the previous game.

What a crazy game, Mini the king of sneaking, obscene dt control
