Best spots an ovie with sair near his base. It is doomed. Best has 4 gateways and is making archons and templars. GGpay placed his 4th and 5th hatch in teh front of his nat blocking a single sunken.

He has 2 evo chambers. One in the main and one in the top left expo. He has 2 sunkens there as well which isnt going to save is if Best finds that base .

BeSt has +1 and immediately starts +2. he is definitely ahead in upgrades there. Taking the bottom right expansion too while the first lurkers finish morphing for GGplay. Best sending some lots up for harassment.

Best has a few speedlings and an archon coming towards GGs natural. He is trying to pressu so he can set up his 3rd in the bot right. GG puts some lurkers in front of is base but zpeedzeals come through and kill many lings at the nat . Best has no obs so the lurkers force him out once they come back to the nat entrance.

Best stumbles onto teh lop left with his remaining forces but they are too small and the 3 sunks there take out a couple zealots.

Zealots try breaking into GGplays natural but are denied by a flock of zerglings, helped by the armor upgrade that kicked in. BeSt switches paths and goes for top left that is only protected by 2 sunkens - but backs off upon seeing those. Hive tech incoming.

Is he going to go ultra or what?

Saving a lot of gas it seems.

Best retreats and regroups. GGplay looses some 20 lings as the bump into Bests new zeal.goon.ht army. GG still not starting his 3rd base. Its 3 bas vs 3 base atm which is very bad for GGplay.

GGplay is making mostly speedlings at this point. This game is looking a little bit like Lux vs Best in OSL game 5. GGplay is sloppy and looses forces here and there as they meet the P ball piecemeal.

Best being aggressive with some temps / zeals / single archon, adding 4 more gateways at his mainbase and finally an observatory. GGplay almost manages to snipe a templar, but a QUICK archon morph saves it.

BeSt clears out some lurkers near his third without problems. GGplay on 2-1 upgrades while BeSt is at 002 - not looking bad for the zerg there, but BeSt is up by 50 supply still. GGplay expanded between top left and his natural, but that one is found by some zealots and will go down.

Some lings break through the protoss push but are chased down.

I'm surprised GGplay did not go for a hydra break given this map. Hm, I guess we'll see how it develops.

GGplay getting owned. No defilers or ultras, just pure lings, getting massacred.

Maybe devisive attack coming by the protoss, he has many goons and sufficient observer - GGplay will be hard pressed holding his natural.

Best breaks through to GGplay's main, and ggplay promptly types out.

Best takes ou GGplays hatchery at 11 oclock. Now thre is a bigh engagement. GGPlay is lurkerling. Heavy on ligns and light on Lurkers. His lings melt to storm while best looses little forces.

The P ball continues toward GGs nat. But at this point the ball is worn down and Best has mainly goons which wait out long enough to be reinforced by speedzeals and templars. Now Best rips into GGplay's nat and razes it meeting little resistance.

GGplay types out after a very porr preformance. Best vs Lux all over.

Lings have some success against the pure goon, but there are still 20+ left to go in. Best taking 4th base now and reinforcing his push with zealots. The natural WILL fall and GGplay has almost nothing left.
