Really great to see him engage and disengage actively with his banelings instead of committing to certain death against a marine splitter like MKP. He almost is baiting the split just to turn them around and surround with lings. You don't see many zergs micro them that well.

Definitely, zergs need to start microing, splitting and withdrawing banelings a lot more in response to marine micro
Yeah but still he lost since he ddnt get anything to deal with those medivac. Great game anyway!

WHO MADE YOU THE LORD OF THE EVENTS?? IMO a championship is a championship, it doesnt matter if it an ARENA or GSL, the players always try their best to win.

drg won both a GSL season and spring arena 1 violet just won the spring arena 2 MC just won red bull battle grounds

first of all drg won the gsl in march 2012, secondly what do you define as a major vs a premire, RBBG had a stacked line up and both arenas had a good number of code S level koreans
If you ignore a unit, it will hurt you. Medivacs were fine. Stephano had 0 medivac kills he didn't fungal them to death, he had no spire units to kill them. He just let them be and it hurt him every game.
I can't see the micro; MEDIVACS are blocking my view
This killed me....I don't know why Stephano didn't get up at least a little Spire tech to kill the medivacs. That's such lost opportunity to have no way to really bring down the medivac count.
because his economy was shit, he had like 58 drones or something. They were fighting battle of costeficenty; marines + upgrades with mass medivacs againts banelings,lings with upgrades + infestors. They were hammering each other with everything they got till the other player would get KO'd.
Exactly and the medivacs + marines will always be more efficient in those numbers.
Medivacs basically act as an additional defense because of the added health. It just puts you at such a disadvantage if you don't take care of the medivacs. Not to mention, killing medivacs is such a great way to put you back on balance in econ! Medivacs are not cheap on gas.
yea true, as the casters said, he should had stay on mid tech. Mutas would had been a great addition.
Would have made his infester baneling count even lower. He did not have the gas.
Well, I'd rather Mutas over glorified water balloons, myself.
Especially with seeing marauders....they can't shoot up!! Neither can tanks. It helps manage the matchup better. Back off the infestor tech and increase mutas in its place and you've got a more balanced, more mobile army.
Bring Muta's against a marine + medivac army. Yea we are done here.
