35:06 is when the game should have ended. I guess the players were just too tired. The second mistake was that instead of letting the probes return minerals he decided to just let them die for some reason. Those minerals would let him summon 1 zealot which would have been a massive help.

@Kaiasky 2 года назад

Lowko, suggestion for December, you should do a series where you cast a match that you feel defines each of the years 2010-2021, looking at it retrospectively. Like, how much of the way we now play is due to balance changes, how much of it is due to the level of play increasing or new players reshaping the meta?

@ConstructMorePylons 2 года назад

the real heroes are SCVs and Medivacs.

@levin2142 2 года назад

I think Clem sent the structures at the end to mask the advance of the SCVs. All those blue blips hanging around that area allowed the SCVs to slip through and repair the Medivacs without getting picked off by the Stalkers. And silly Lowko. The correct title of this video was obviously Bronze League Heroes.

@wojciechsura 2 года назад

I'm curious, why Clem after cleaning up the base didn't quickly load up marines in medivacs, fly on boost to the shield battery and kill it before stalkers could get there? I suppose before Showtime realized, the battery would be long gone.

@jemmerl 2 года назад

I bet on two factors: long game, you're tired and may not think of it... or just wanting to play it safe. The main way Clem could lose was losing the medivacs. Having the marines in the medivacs means they lack that marine buffer that was keeping them safe. He could probably have evaded the stalkers like you said, but why take the risk? It certainly would have been amazing to watch, that's for sure!

@jornborgfernandez8186 2 года назад

Showtime can see the marines being loaded up and since stalker can blink, they could polly catch up. I think he was just playing it safe in the end.

@FuaConsternation 2 года назад

Smash it with everything and abuse what must be some of the most stella control I have ever seen. I mean he lost a Marine. In 10 minutes and 30 seconds of cliff-hanging control he lost 1 marine. God I hope he was laughing while doing it, I was laughing watching it! What a hero!

Clem could have saved the last orbital by "simply" lifting it sooner. If he'd lifted it before it started burning, it would have been ok. After it started burning, it felt like he could have flown the CC to his main, which was still walled off, and repaired it there. That would have given him a far more convincing victory as he could have dropped mules. - certified chat GM

@asdfqwerty6122 2 года назад

@@warnaoh I mean, obviously it's a mistake.. but at the same time, no matter how good you are at the game there's still a limit to the number of things you can focus on at the same time. Pro players can do a lot more than the average person, but lifting off their buildings is still taking away actions from doing something else, and if they're already in the middle of a critical fight it can cost them much more than just losing a building to take their attention away even for a fraction of a second.
