    So, taking notes, my new strategy against World Champion Dark:
    - Wall off your natural;
    - Build 22 barracks;
    - ONLY build reapers until they nearly all die;
    - Expand to a 4th base, transition into marine/marauder/ghost/mine/medivac;
    - Starve him out;
    - Wait until he offers a Draw;
    - Actually accept the draw if it was me, I will take it.
    Sounds good for my personal achievement. Now I just need to actually manage to reach out to Dark to try it:p

    I do think you should have went for 2+ simultaneous nukes when he had the entire map. It's such a pain to search the entire map for 3 red dots. You could drop them behind your main mineral line and force him to keep checking the entire map without finding it.
    Oh and dark should have pushed in so that you could have a game 3.

    I feel like it would have helped Dark to have made swarm hosts instead of lurkers. Have I got that wrong? I'm sure it is, but I don't know why. Also like one siege tank, he would have to sacrifice a quarter of his army just to get it. He'd have to use a whole lot of infestors or vipers plus a lot of banelings to get rid of it, and he *has* to get rid of it or it will slowly eat everything he has on the ground.

  • @DKCHEUNG
    @DKCHEUNG ปีที่แล้ว +11

    In G1 vs Dark, I dont understand why you attacked his 3rd base instead of going back to the 4th and sending a hellion squad to the 5th. The creep spread at the 4th was recessed at the south. Sometimes like in G1 I see you try to attack down the middle and then get surrounded rather than continually going after expos. If you could comment on which bases to attack that would be great.

    How Uthermal loses intentionally, I don’t know what to build, I say things like, I didn’t expect lots of bannelings, I know he is out of money and killing off his workers, I will wait until he can build a 200 supply against my 174 supply, I absolutely refuse to build more than 1 raven, refuse to build speed banshees, I prefer to move my ground units around and wait 5 minutes. I refuse to max my army to 200 supply. He plays this tournament as if he was playing a challenge, let me handicap myself in the middle of the 😂tournament. I still think it was funny when you said, I didn’t expect that many Bannelings. Can you name me 1 top Zerg player that doesn’t throw out lots of bannelings?
    What makes me think Uthermal threw this game? My opponent is out of money, sacrificing his workers, waiting till my opponent is at 200 supply, refusing to build air units, playing 174 supply, refusing to mine out and build a bank, refusing to get rid of my workers and go in with 200 supply, using only expensive units like ghosts, building how many barracks? Saying things like I don’t know how to play long game, refusing a draw and preferring the loss. Refusing to build counter air units. If you don’t believe me, watch the video and see what he says and does.
    I was wondering why Maru threw some games, I guess it’s the money. LOL. I guess it’s like poker. Lose the small money games and win the big ones.

    13:40: I have no idea why you went deep on creep with your whole army there. Defense was going well, then you just suicided. Also no Yamato. Was a great game up to that point.
    OMG that Reaper game was the most wild shit I ever seen, Bro! I thought it was over and done 100% in the first 5 minutes. Then you got in there and I thought YOU had the win for sure! Honestly, I'm not sure how you didn't. Could have just camped the ramp to the natural and pounded any attempt to break it with nonstop grenades while killing his base with a small squad. And then it turns into late-game Ghost bio vs Bling caster. Absolutely nuts!
    WOW! You got Dark to ask for a draw. That is impressive!
    55:00: =OOOOOO
    56:30: Again, why not camp the ramp? It would be down to whether he could Abduct enough Ghosts before his Vipers get Sniped or EMPd but it's the best fight you could hope for.
    Sad ending to an incredible game. But, honestly, that's the game's fault. You made it as entertaining as it could be. Well, I would have preferred a 3rd game, I suppose ;p Still going into the bookmarks for that insane early-game =)

    14:55 I built a nexus in the zergs pocket base on this map, it went unscouted and I mothership rushed, hitting right before he nydused me and he lost all his queens in the nydus and then ended up dying.

    9:20 oh Okay!? I get it, here Dark sometimes has this terribly bad habit of just tunnel visioning his way into a degrading sort of losing game. If that makes any sense?! Anyways he has tunnel vision and he hasn't read Sun Tzu The Art of War so he's going to be doing this sort of "with the might of my mighty SWARM I WILL STORM THE CASTLE RAWRRRRRR~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Right? RIGHT?? Like when you have other additional options available to him like just maybe a "Prolong Siege with spine/spore forest which eventually has upgraded Lurkers joining the siege!!!!! He could really drone up while maintaining a siege!! Yes it's actually really hard to balance in a precise way as to make just enough drones in order to still make the spine forest with spores when needed and the super mobile lings (kinda like shock troopers aren't they?) and the gradual eco progression which is going to farther supply your growing siege like containment of the enemy player. The balance between Static D, lings, and slow eco-growth is going to be key to victory here! And btw the balance between static D and lings is heavily sided on the static D side for the simple reason that they are also mobile Cthulhu like tentacles!!! How scary is that?? If there's any Unit in this game that can TRULY demoralize an opponent, it's the Spine Crawler!! When your eco grows enough, you have an interesting choice completely unique to the zerg!! That is of course the Lurker or the Swarm Host!! The GGLords ALSO count as a later late game-ish option as well. And also remember, you're not trying to storm the castle, you're trying to STARVE HIM OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is key here! Ya I know, what a novel idea isn't it? Actually laying a seige to win a tournament game even, how fun would that be?? Instead of the usual scripted GARBAGE we've been getting lately eh?????
    So yeah point is, if you truly wanna get good at this game, even though you'll will just be like "GET GOOD YOU STUPID NOOB LUL", well there ARE things you can do to get better, even if you lack the specific talent for playing an RTS game. Reading "The Art of War" is one of those things anyone can do to get that much better at playing ANY war simulated game rather it'd be the common RTS games or the 4X games or some other type of hybrid or something...

    I wish in the first game against dark you had taken advantage of the even bases and just transitioned into a macro game. Probably still wouldn't have won, but would have been cool to see a ton of fortresses trying to strangle him out.

    losing a game that should have been a draw is a lot more disappointing to me as a viewer than drawing a game tbh

      Not to diss Marc, but Dark is a player so versatile that doesn't play just straight early aggro or late defensive games; he can aggro early and somehow transition into a winning late game. It is very hard to catch Dark off guard when you realized he doesn't have build order or plan like Lowko said "He just wing it" ; a testament to the sheer monstrous raw talent alone.
      Then comes the second game, Marc did caught Dark off guard and what's more Dark is hella enjoying the moment playing with Marc and even offers a draw, that Dark fcking sees Marc as equal even though retired and loves playing fun StarCraft2.
