TH Mini-Tournament Series #2 [RESULTS]

[Slapshot136]

slapshot with 854 as the identifier isn't working?

anyways, this weekend im busy in the afternoons, so it would have to be around or before noon, is that ok?

 

[BANANAMAN]

Wait. Fuck I'm against a random opponent at my first round? But I suck vs Random. :O

 

[Siretu]

It's okay, no one will blame you if you lose. Everyone knows Random is OP.

 

[BANANAMAN]

Thanks Siretu. That makes me feel a little better.

 

[Syndrome]

I added you BANANAMAN on B.Net, I will be on and don't worry about not playing before the 28th haha.
Can we begin games immediately?

 

[BANANAMAN]

I'm having a couple of issues with my SCII lately.But it should be resolved soon.

Haha, my graphics card is a monumental pool of festering rot and decay, which means that I crash in games from time to time. Not just SC2, like in LoL I get like 0 FPS for maybe 25 seconds before it crashes and burns.
Let's hope that doesn't happen, I really want to see how far I get in this tournament xD

 

[Sevion]

Here are my replays.

 

[Whitesock]

White, just let me know when you're done with those papers

Sometime next week/weekend I'll be good to go.

 

[Vestras]

Honestly, bananaman, you held that 6 pool in game one really bad, and you didn't just lose three drones. I would've preferred if you hadn't thrown down the spine crawler, pulled out all of your drones from the mineral line into some open space, and then attacked the lings. You wouldn't have lost nearly as much.
And the 6 pool was poorly executed, too, so you were lucky.

The second game you didn't have nearly enough drones, so everything you did was completely all-in.

 

[BANANAMAN]

I would reword that first suggestion or it might come off as an arrogant statement that you seem to think you're better than me.

 

[Syndrome]

Haha, I got so nervous I made some extremely bad decisions:
In game one if I did not cancel my Lair/Hive/w/e it's called, I could've defended it with my 8 lings.
In game two, well, I massed marines and got hard-countered by banes, should've went for drops, air or mechs after the first wave of marines died.
Back to solo queue for me for a while. Gonna improve toss and main that.

 

[Vestras]

Just saying it as it is. That's not arrogant.

 

[Bloodcount]

I will restrain myself from commenting on how much lack of skill you need if you are to let banelings like that work, the way that they did in the second match.


Also terran, being able to repair your buildings is a useful skill to have ;]

bananaman, maiking soo many lings that early in the game is unwise most of the times, what I'd recommend you do is scout the front with 4 lings, if you see a lot of untis then most likely it is an early-mid game push, get a good number of ling bling or roach and play defensively...

I also dislike the builds that both of you went for the second match.

Yeah, ok sure, Mutas on scrap are awesome, you can harass all expos, within seconds and force your opponent to move around the map like crazy while you nydus him, but when you see a 3 rax, 2 of which have reactors (aka 4 marines at a time) it might be sliiiightly unwise to do so.


Also going 3 rax on scrap station is awesome! 3-5 bunkers and you are unbreakable, you can get every single expo you want... however not expanding and making a semi all-in marine army, where as the rush distance is ridiculous isn't a game winning move.

Terran, the lack of stim killed you. You realise that you can press stim, and kill all blings without loosing marines, right ? A stim damages your entire army, sure, but you maintain the entire DPS, it is better to have 20 marines on half hitpoints, than 10 on full health (the dps is twise as high )


The final baneling micro was on the level.


Aaaanyway, these are my 2 pennies.


Also, I agree with vestras.

 

[Monsterous]
