TOPIC: The Base Race Match

The Base Race Match 1 month ago #2763

I wanted to put this out there. I reviewed this match really quickly, and just at an arms length, this was a good example of what can happen when the first two players to die, die as slowly as they can. The other team, lost one player due to my lings taking out a mineral lines worth of probes, then reinforcements came in and cleaned them out.

Vennos fell first, naturally he being on the leading edge, that location seems to be a lightening rod. Then after some regrouping, they came back in force to clean Sabby out. The good thing was that they died very slowly, and that allows the left over players to bulk them selves up.

Where the other team lost, was, I believe, they invested too much in the ground game, and I switched over from lings, to mutas, which was what I had planned. Step's base was untouched until the hostilities were almost over, then he had almost all air units, and cleaned them up with ease. With no answer to the air, they fell...

... not to mention they spent 10 minutes laying pylons, nexus', and hatcheries all over the map, with no hope of winning, only to be jackasses.

This team was placing, and finally placed in bronze after losing to us.

After the match was over, I realized after begging for things like help, and gas, that my mic was muted. I had kept coughing, so I figured muting the mic so you wouldn't have to hear that. :boink: So, something to keep in mind, those mass roaches worked very well, but his choice of using hydras for his anti air, wasn't a very good idea. Step tore through those very quickly.

I really didn't notice I wasn't talking on comms, because the few times I asked for help, Step just naturally came over to bail me out. When the Zerg going mass roach switched over to hydras, I once again yelled for help, and when it never came, I seen Step had taken advantage of that diversion and went for their bases, and cleaned them out. I abandoned my last base to go help him out. I am glad I switched over from lings to air when I did.

It was just a shame that they had to be asshats and prolong it 15 minutes. As soon as the zerg lost his hydras, the game was over. We had all air, and they ground only units.

It probably felt to Step like he was playing by himself. :Peanutbuter:

Here is the replay if you want to see how it ended.

Nah your Mutas were a key element in keeping the tide in our favor. Between your air and my own. That is what keep the win.
