28:15 I think the decision to make a command center is a striking example of Maru's absolute confidence that you mentioned earlier. The man is so confident he can deflect this fight that he's prepared for what comes beyond, and spent 400 minerals on a CC that won't immediately help him in this crisis.
@kommisar.7 ай бұрын
True, but in all fairness, he probably had a bunch of minerals floating that he couldn't spend given his lack of production.

Although I have played some StarCraft 2 like 15 years ago, I am new to watching matches. I am slowly beginning to understand what is going on. It is just amazing how much happens simultaneously and how much depth there is to these matches. Watching Maru is a pleasure. He reminds me AlphaGo the first AI to ever beat the best human Go players. Both seem to have a very precise grasp of not just how to win a battle, but what is *exactly* enough to win it, so the rest of the resources/attention can go elsewhere. Truly amazing to behold.

28:15: Wow, that was a crazy good fight for Maru. 59:45: Really looked like Maru was gonna pincer Gum's army here. Sieging the reinforcing Tank and going in on it would have been great. Instead, he let himself be pincered. 1:02:15: Targeting the Tank there would have killed sooo many SCVs. 1:02:57: Gumi sending in the SCVs before his Tanks were ready was... a decision.

To be fair, Maru has also played his fair share of 'unique' builds, he's not at all a stock standard Terran like say Innovation or more currently Clem or Cure. He's not as innovative as Gumiho of course but he does pull the occasional rabbit out of his hat every now and than.

@@oshawott4544 Oppressive/uninteresting metas do seem to crop up a bit more often in mirror match-ups, giving them a reputation for being less varied and having more-abrupt, less-satisfying conclusions. They also tend to be subtler and more technical, requiring deeper knowledge of that faction's mechanics and units in order to appreciate and making them less accessible for more casual or faction-focused viewers. Having said that, the mirror match-ups are usually just as varied and easy to follow, and even when they aren't, there are still bangers amidst the bleh. I mean, at the most recent Katowice, the "Cyclone Wars" meta broke TvT enough that even the commentators were complaining, but there was still a couple incredibly entertaining series in there.

I had that happen to me in a game where I was base trading and lost all, and I do mean all, my SCV's. I still had some production buildings as well as an Orbital left but I couldn't make a single unit because all my Supply Depots got destroyed and I was supply blocked. The only thing you can do then is to sacrifice army in order to pump out an SCV to then build a Depot, but obviously I couldn't do that.
