Not to mention that Light had basically defended the counter attack when he pulled away from the Nexus.

[@greenwave819]

yeah!!

[@tastethejace]

Legends say that reaver is still crawling away to this day

[@RatedB1]

13:22 that reaver lived to the end too XD

[@perfectman3077]

That reaver micro was the best part of this game

[@MattLyte]

I cannot play competitive RTS to save my life but even from my humble standpoint it feels like Light was way too indecisive after starting through the middle. He got a good foothold through tough terrain but then took a long time to send just the vultures back to kill the goons, only doing so when it basically didn't matter any more AND sending all of his tanks back with them. That made everything that he lost at home to hold the goons off essentially a complete waste. I can only imagine how hard it must be to have to both make these decisions in real time with limited information AND execute them in twelve unit groups with goofy pathing. Things like this are what make Brood War such a high-skill game, it's not just numerical unit balancing. Truly from another era it feels like. Thank you for sharing both the games and your knowledge with us plebeians, Arty!

[@MarphitimusBlackimus]

Truly that Dragoon must be the most famous hero Dragoon of all, none other than the mighty Taldarin himself!

​@MarphitimusBlackimus There is no shane in defeat to soawn broodling, so long as the spirit is unconconquered. Plus like, he never really dies, he gets reborn more often than artosis gets chills.

[@Lappmogel]

Weird decisions from the terran. He moved out his entire army and left nothing at home. Then he waited a long time to to walk back, lost a bunch of workers and then finally moved way to much back so he didn't even get the nexus.

[@Ziegfried82]

The weird thing was pulling his units back when he was attacking Mini's third base. If you commit like that its an all in and he needed to finish off the nexus and keep going to the main. I'm not sure it would have been smart to leave troops back defending for Light in that situation because then your attack force simply won't have enough power to crush the waves of gateway units. In order for leaving something at home to have stopped that many goons light would have needed at least 3 tanks at the natural that's a lot of firepower to be missing.

[@Lappmogel]

​@@Ziegfried82 The mistake was the aggressive rally i think. If those 3 vultures had mined the bunker and those 2 tanks had sieged behind it he would've traded a lot better. He even had 2 gols coming out for the shuttle as well. Instead they walked out and die for free.

this is at least the 2nd time light has had all his marines killed by fenix

Poor Light getting cheesed on the ladder the entire day when he just wants to get some ASL practice.

Then again given his form he’s gonna get monster cheesed in ASL as well so maybe not bad 😂

I don't remember starcraft ever having horizontal or vertical facing ramps before remastered. I only remember seeing diagonal facing ramps.

Starcraft only has downward facing diagonal ramps. The others were made by mappers by pasting together existing unit tiles.

You should bump up the volume a little on these videos. Every time I watch I have to turn it up 20 points, and without headphones it's even quieter.

[@mottiengnhat8921]

Why is it when a hero dragoon happens Light is always the victim lol? Who remember that Light vs Tempest game from 2009 with the 32-kill hero Dragoon

[@basimaziz]

I think Light lost when he unsieged his 8-10 tanks to go back for 3-4 dragoons. He woulda had that base otherwise. GG, good match~.

What's up with those Zerg Eggs?

[@fallenangel32147]

Did RT actually say part of a map was good for Terran? I'm stunned. right on the 11:00 min mark

[@draganpetev4677]

As a C rank Protoss almost 20y ago I always opened goon/obs/reaver vs Terran and kept him contained while super expanding and setting up storm + carriers... Winrate was over 80% cuz non-pro Terrans can't really counter that...

[@Existence_End]

I need it to become meta for ghosts, so badly wanted him to get ghost at 930 but i get it takes alot of time an investment an sacrifice elsewere..not to mention squishy and micro intensive but gawd are they amazing vs toss IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN😅

[@cyberneticdex69]

funny goon indeed

[@seigrispark6158]

I have a question because I don't really play SC1 but I see this a lot. I keep hearing that the protoss taking an offensive gas dictates a lot of the terran's flow. What's stopping the terran from making a refinery then canceling it for -25 minerals?

[@Lappmogel]

You mean doing offensive gas as terran?

[@seigrispark6158]

@@Lappmogel nah like denying the protoss in your own base from stealing the gas

[@Lappmogel]

@@seigrispark6158 yeah you can cut/cancel some workers and quickly build your own gas. Sets you back a bit economically though, doubt it worth cancelling it since you need it later anyway and if you do the toss can just come back and steal it. But it might be worth pausing building it and continue mining.

[@seigrispark6158]

@@Lappmogelthanks for the explanation. that makes sense

[@gippygames]

Offensive refinery is much weaker because of how workers create buildings. A probe calls a warp-in and is free to do whatever it wants. The SCV must stay and construct the refinery while being exposed. The drone sacrifices itself.

[@DonnePlummer69]

I’m shocked Light called GG he won the game. Rookie shit

4 base vs 2 base with no real hope of taking a 3rd and he had no tanks remaining.

this map sucks for terran so much

[@SorakaOTP462]

Terran made a mistake. You never go marines against protoss, it's always just voltures and tanks.

[@Jamesgalc-gs8wu]

The true mistake was not killing the nexus. His marine rush was successful though he probably should've stopped at killing the gate and force delayed the expansion.

[@abstractdaddy1384]

He didn't "go marines". He made a 2nd rax because there was a proxy gateway. Pls stop criticizing the gameplay choices of professional players when you have no idea what you're talking about.
