I love it! Greedy builds are so enjoyable: extremely tense at the beginning when anything can tip the game, then very well-paced afterwards because both economies are quite strong.

@momom6197 3 ай бұрын

Well, except for the times when they fall flat on their face to a 1-base all-in or a cheese. It happens.

@hetaresgaming7771 3 ай бұрын

Like lowko said, these aren't going to get you great results on the ladder against opponents that you don't have a read on. Any 12, 14, 16 or any sort of early aggression at all is a GG, and Maru did this extremely riskily by guessing Reynor was not going to cheese him. In another one of the games in this series, Maru did a similar build without a ramp, and it almost went badly if he hadn't been extremely smart and maneuveured his way out of a sticky situation (though I think he still lost anyways afterwards in the late game)

@artemirrlazaris7406 3 ай бұрын

If reynor follwoed up wit hspire muta, those marine drops probably would of traded really unfairly and then in corruptors/ broods to shut dow nteh skies, theres jsut a lot of bad trades with the lings... ultras are also a great answer for clustering marines in areas, but brood is a solid against terran... the mutas allow you to fly in harras, change the build style of the enemy and the nfly out and defend also. Ling/ roach against upgraded marines are just out matched will enver trade well... and will ahve a hard tiem pushing in a tank line or defended line, so flying units can circumnaviagate and force out different units and a movement of the defensive units, even a few dropper or nydus worms could of helped.

@junyofficial1483 3 ай бұрын

Not sure if you're talking about game 1 or 2, but in game 1 mutas are not viable because that would be suicide against battle mech cyclones, at which point the second maru saw a single muta he'd add in a thor. 2nd game, reynor had no option to go into muta seeing that he pretty much went all-in 2 base roachling and failed to break a terran who went for a greedy 3 cc build. He wouldnt have the economy to go into muta. In the time he would have a decent muta count, Maru would have a way bigger army to crush and end the game. Reynor made the right decision in sticking to cheaper units to try and recover his significant economy disadvantage.

@wolfclaw3812 3 ай бұрын

Usually Reynor's trying to eat you, your natural, and your computer from the get-go, but I guess against Maru, Reynor decided to take it slow?

@artemirrlazaris7406 3 ай бұрын

10:04 drone count doesn't really mean much, at that point since he is only mining from one base, and two bases will always mine faster as a base has a peak limit, 2 per mineral spread out.. so the damage is currently even... and he can do a droning form behind, I think he really needs a macro hatch or third... usually if you pushing that hard, you can get away with a corner base.

"2nd all in" doesnt make any sense. If the first attack was truly a all in, you would have lost when it failed. Otherwise it wasnt an all in. 10:25

@cousinpatsey2471 3 ай бұрын

Not necessarily. All in just means it has to do damage, or you lose. If you deal significant damage, but not game ending damage, you could definitely all in again.
