I love how TY doesn’t overextend his BC and keep trying to save all 4 of them. Eventually those BC dealt so many damages, successfully defended 2 base rush, and even killed the one and only warp prism. That was so cool
He overextended two BCs at the start though, which felt really awkward. If he had that first and second BC around, I feel like this maybe could've ended earlier.
That's one reason why Golden Wall is so great, IMO. The way the map is designed, with so many chokes/ramps (especially at far off bases that are very hard to defend as a mech player usually), while also keeping enough open spaces around the map to balance things out, allows a lot more positional and interesting mech play like this. I hope we get more maps like it, it's a shame it won't be staying around. Usually maps have far off expansions be in very open areas that are easy to push, so usually both players just expand on their side of the map and don't consider taking far off expansions. And when maps are cleanly divided like that with your first 4-5 bases very close to each other, it tends to make games like a tug of war of (i fight on your side, you fight on my side) rather than having small skirmishes and positional battles all over. You just push out and attack their newest or most vulnerable base usually. And if you lose a main fight, all your bases are close together so the game tends to just end. We see many games like this where a Zerg has 5 bases clumped up for example and a big econ lead but Terran has 3 and wins 1 fight convincingly, so there is no time for the Zerg to bounce back or utilize their economic lead to try to make a comeback. It feels anticlimactic. But if maps allow your bases to be more spread out, it can be more chaotic like this game; you need to win lots of small battles to close a game out, and it's not always clear where you should exactly be attacking and what route to take to travel there. The top-center bases for example have small ramps as chokes and are on high ground, so doing things like spamming static defense at the choke with a few units like Lurkers/Disruptors/Tanks to make pushes cost inefficient becomes much more viable (just like BW). All that said, I'm really really happy we got a game like this before it rotates out of GSL, especially with Mech!! And especially with how the game turned into a "top vs bottom" layout, which is something I've been really wanting to see out of this map. I feel the game could have went on quite a bit longer if Stats just made a couple better decisions but I'm happy enough. (At the end he could have warped in ~6 Chargelots vs those naked Tanks instead of Stalkers, and earlier when Stats tried to push up the ramp to retake his main, Stats should have warped in Zealots at his expo that was still alive at the bottom left, and flanked from behind first.)
This was one of the better 4-0 series I've ever seen. It didn't feel like Stats was playing all that poorly, but instead TY just putting on a masterclass of strategy and preparation, completely countering Stats strategies at every turn. He just came in with the perfect unique plan for every map, and it all worked flawlessly for him.
Theres is no fucking way in hell terran wins becaude of everythibg u said. Terran is op and you can clealry see why.

4:33 Notice how TY took the liberty to charge up his Yamatos on Stats' Colossi, knowing that he couldn't be punished for it with such a retreat from his opponent.
Its not about the retreat, there's nothing Stats has at that moment that can do deal with the BCs. There's only 4 archons, 1 stalker, 1 voidray and a phoenix. Even if TY has no other ground troops he can still move in to Yamato and get out with all 4 BCs alive.
If I played Terran, I would emulate TY's Battlecruiser Mech style. I can't stand 4M, even though it's arguably easier to play. But there's just something about building a huge mechanized army to go crush anything that stands in your way.
I've been watching this tournament on TH-cam through afreecaTV. When I saw this at the end i was like NOOO! When the stalkers blinked. Then that volley from tanks cleared up any worry I had lol
@@Tomoyuki_Tanaka but stats did kill a bunch of hellbats right before he tried to jumped the tanks with stalkers. Pretty sure he saw how many tanks there were in that earlier engagement..
@@_Wai_Wai_ But he doesn't know if there were reinforcing Hellions or Hellbats. We know TY had no Hellbats left because we can see the whole map, but Stats didn't. He didn't have vision.

Also, he's reinforcing his Stalkers, so why would he assume that TY wouldn't be reinforcing his tanks? He probably also has the Battlecruisers in mind, since Zealots can't shoot up.
phoenixes for the terran are very usefull, he probably though there will be banshees cause he seen tech lab at starport, so phoenixes are amazing for banshee, for medivacs, ravens they are also great vs mines which is very popular style from terrans, they can do scv rides, during the battle they can lift a tanks and turn them off. Also you need some flying units to avoid many harasses and clear the deadspots where stalkers can't reach. So they are very usefull but they are weak vs heavy units like thors and bc and that was just stats bad luck
When you have the apm of these guys phoenixes are very useful. It's almost free damage. The only downside is that you don't have early robo for defence.
So I know how hard it is to think straight in the middle of a hectic game especially after 3 consecutive losses, but I was curios if stats just did a zealot warp in on top of the tanks there was a window there well before the BCs came back, he eventually did, but I was also curious why he didnt commit to zealots, I suppose the reason is he wanted to have something to counter the BCs
Zealots would’ve been a terrible option with BCs and hellions there. Yeah, he stalkers weren’t great either, but with all his tech gone it was either: A) Unit that is good vs tank but melts to hellions and can’t do anything vs cruisers Or B) unit that isn’t great against tank, but good against hellions and can still shoot down cruisers. I can see why he did what he did.
lol? mech is the only one chance terran can lose game to toss, I assume you are blind and brainless so let me explain why in this match stats was dead since the 1:07 but still survive because mech is such crap, because stats goes into adept+phoenix vs TY BCs so the only one thing this match is proof is mech is so crap that stats could win it anyway if he has no idea what TY is doing, in the final battle if he didnt blink at the siege tanks at the end but if he send some zealots first he still might win
Seriously?! Did he just spearhead a column of siege tanks in a face to face battle using only a stalker with no support at all?! That’s a very idea🤣🤣🤣🤣
he had a lot of luck that stats choose the worst composition in the world to fight bc which was adepts+phoenixes , he was also lucky that stats missed the fusion core and still TY barely won, struggling for 20 minutes, and tbh Stats didnt have to quit, he should warp a zealots and go for the tanks with them, it was pure siege tanks! I think he needed to go to toilet thats why he so suddenly get out
