ASTREA vs BYUN('s Wrists) | ESL Summer Winners Stage (Bo3 TvP) - StarCraft 2

oh right all right all right let's go we got Beyond down here in the bottom right side of the map gonna be playing a Taran versus protoss up against Estrella it is the winner stage here from the ESL summary on Japan and uh bloody exciting to see how this one goes Australia has been looking fantastic the king of North America at the moment he stomped his region he looked dominant there he also looked creative and inspired in many of his games but he's going up against a guy that usually has his number Beyond is so brutally powerful and because Australia is so greedy and kind of let's be on get going um I do feel that Bianca can sometimes play a little bit of an unafraid style in this matchup specifically now interesting Barracks placement looks like Leon just wants to maybe get his Reaper across the map quicker by jumping down as well as potentially hiding it from the probe the probe might come in and if Australia doesn't check that corner he might Panic a little bit thinking there is a barracks on his side of the map he's gonna be a cyber core before Nexus sends his probe down a little late though check it out 400 minerals his Nexus is going to be a solid two seconds late maybe three seconds there not the end of the world of course kind of interesting to note that and he's going to go for a 21 second pylon on the low ground probe does Circle the main sees what Beyond's up to and Beyond of course with his double gas opening starter Factory and he pulls one worker off each gas that's interesting only one off each gas not the two normally you pull two off one gas one off the other to get that Command Center down as fast as possible but I guess he still wants to have a little bit more Tech than he might normally the barracks is going to float back to a more protected position he doesn't want his reactor exposed up there or can get sniped from the low ground is still in uh if it was a tvt siege tank range but nothing from protoss can really shoot that far 's gonna bounce in towards the main base here we go can you get any kills first adapts just pop it remember that Gateway is down there blocking the reaper ledge Australia with some good micros so far he's got to be careful that that Reaper will rotate oh good good Pro micro very good probe micro guys not a single probe goes down just a bit of mining time does delay the Twilight Council from starting by a few seconds but not the end of the world probe is still circling in the main as well oh I mean this is really good from Australia if he can keep that probe alive a little bit longer That'll be amazing look he's still queuing it around there's just nothing here that can take it take care of it Command Center on The High Ground Factory style boat on the way as well the reaper is thinking about jumping around like to confirm the tech and he tries to bounce himself but no that that angle was never gonna work there and this probe is still circling the Marines finally out but knowing exactly what's happening I mean you look at this and you're like cool I guess you're gonna you're gonna Widow mind drop me in a little bit right and then this just looks super standard like there's nothing for Australia to worry about he's going Robo already okay robo's second gate looks like just a two gate blink opening he could go four gate blink potentially Beyond oh he's gonna lose his Reaper do we see a third and a fourth Gateway Estrella if he's gonna do it he's gonna do it right now oh oh no he's just gonna go take a third base I like that cool I think Australia is much better at taking a third base I think his four gate blink is something where he would need to drill that at least a couple dozen games in quick succession to really get himself up to the level where his full gate blink is deadly uh Max back's hero have done that thousands of times that's why they're the best in the world at it but I might drop actually sneaks through the adapts don't see it which means you've got a little bit less damage to deal with this oh he's only got one stalker at home two gateways are ready he's gonna walk through stalkers in right now he's kind of boosting blink it ain't gonna be ready this is a very quick drop guys he has one stalker to defend three Widow mind drop oh man and he even hides that we don't mind so if Australia doesn't realize that wouldn't mind's there he could pull his probes into it oh man stalker's warping in on the natural but they're actually gonna deal with that widowmine quite well oh very nice and you know what he hasn't lost any workers a fair bit of mining time does go down that's not inconsequential third base is up now probe is idling behind that one Australia's Got to Be Careful to not get too distracted here because we don't mind drop really does a good bit of disruption Robo Bay goes down as well as a fourth gas right now for Australia he's getting up towards of course the Colossus he usually goes for a very quick charge with this build as well so don't be surprised if he goes charge and just sits on two gateways for a long time making Colossus stalkers and zealots Beyond's gonna sneak by with a raven it looks like Australia is going to be pushing forward with these units maybe looking for this but he oh yeah he's anticipated it but he's a little bit too late Australia's you can see this just 10 seconds behind on setting these stalkers up and the Raven just gets on by and that's going to allow it to get into this dead space where it can come in and pick either mineral line to drop Auto turrets that's so annoying because you've already got stalkers here now you're gonna have to leave stalkers here and here this is so irritating and a marine tank push is moving out for Beyond right now Beyond's got a second and third Barracks up behind it he's going to start building those extra tech labs on the barracks the reactors on the starboards oh he's so annoying and and how do you deal with this is Australia I mean you see the push coming with the Observer you now see it again with the adept Colossus is on the way it's going to be ready in about 30 seconds Shield battery with a backup pylon is on the way not much Supply free right now for Australia wouldn't mind drop comes in gets two probes those stalkers could take care of it that would be fantastic and indeed they do meanwhile a stalker goes down in the middle of the map as well though two stalkers in fact went down there oh no that's very costly he doesn't have many units every stalker is sacred he doesn't even have enough to one short a marine right now but with the shield battery he may be okay oh all those Siege tanks he's gonna have to pull these probes away careful the Raven is still waiting in the back there guys their Raven's gonna come in right now and drop some Auto turrets behind the natural expansion one goes in there the stalker does distract it a little bit Raven will still take out two or three probes there looks like three probes as that order turret Runs Out Colossus stalker comes forward a few more probes must have gone down in this space and in order to hurt in the main as well eight proves in total the stalkers are gonna take out the siege deck but not before taking heavy losses and just barely getting back to safety the last Marines do go down Australia is going to return to mining he's lost eight workers he's also lost five stalkers but that's actually a lot of expensive Terran units it was a positive trade for the protoss the problem of course comes with the fact that there's no charge there's only two gateways and you lost a lot of mining time there's also still that Raven pinning two stalkers in the back of the base now the observersy is the next push out of biomine but Australia is still in a rather fragile position uh that being said this doesn't really feel like a kill timing for beyond beyond starts the third Command Center behind it fourth and fifth Barracks as well oh my God watch out no Beyond okay straight doesn't want to Blink forward because he'll lose all the stalkers if he does that but oh man he still gets a Medevac a few Marines and a widow mine just like that he's gonna blink forward and try to get the Medevac as well it does barely Escape fourth and fifth Barracks are on that way but man yeah now losing that drop look at Australia's map vision often in his games versus Beyond he basically sees his corner of the map and nothing else but now he's got a bit of map vision he's got a depth there and observer there this Observer over here his Army's pretty well spread as well so he's kind of ready to receive anything he's not quite confident enough to move his observers forward to the other side of the map but he is kind of getting to that position where he is a little bit more confident and able up to seven now eight gateways are finishing up Australia is making a Sentry for Guardian Shield charge is on the way and notice there's no gases on the third and no fourth Nexus as I say that he's going to build some more spotting pylons to get Future Vision of any drops coming in now Beyond's on biomine the problem is biomine does not counter three Colossus not at all that Marine should be able to take out that oh he gets out of range very nice audit turrets come in and distract three probes go down the Observer barely survives here and the Raven finally being dealt with that's good for Estrella he does take a few seconds to go back to mining look at this he's got a big army out here if he can catch this biomine the bio mine cannot beat this Army be on his way behind right now he needs to base straight he cannot fight this front on yeah yeah he realizes he realizes he's just like no Abandoned Ship run away run away run away if he can defend with his rally at home this is a big enough fire force to really cause Australia problems especially because our ptosis is right there oh no three gateways in the road going down no disruptors will be coming out in this game stalkers do blink in the main as well as the Colossus but look at that the buyer actually take out one two stalkers all Australia with some hot pickup saves a few of them though very nicely done by him the SCB is getting roasted by the Colossus when these four gateways go down that's all of Australia's production in this game absolutely wiped zealots entry does run in the front but notice the bio says hey that can that's okay we can fight you away from the Colossus we'll take that engagement any day of the week yes I'm gonna get overwhelmed but I'll take whatever I can out with me it's not that much though a lot of the zealots do survive the stalkers we're just too good at chasing everything down the Vikings if they could turn to take out the Colossus would be great looks like I think the Australia's seen this look at that he's gonna blink after them he's going for these Vikings he doesn't want to let any anti-colossus units Escape in this game blink is going to be ready in a moment I don't know if he can really chase that Viking down though the bio now chasing down to the third base Estrella coming back with a fuselity he's got to be careful you don't want to throw those away concussive Marauders could smash those zealots down battery overcharge actually gets in there the zealots if they could take out some Marauders that'd be big and he actually gets one of them but that's not gonna be that much a few probes will escape to the right side he's already building a Nexus over here is Australia I think Australia comes out on top of this just because the army supply is so massive you know you don't have any SUVs or any sizeable SCV count up your command centers are getting blasted down by these stalkers and that Colossus count is just Unstoppable there's still a warp prism as well that can be used to hot pick up these Colossus bio mind does not counter this Australia with that fantastic probe scouting just seeing everything in Beyond's main base at the start of this and now cleaning things up decisively beautiful handling of multiple Widow mind drops and Raven harassments he unmounted some good pressure in this but Australia I think just had two good scouting played a really solid defensive game Beyond's Army is so wounded even if he takes that Nexus out Australia cancels it he can rebuild that anytime he wants to and what do you have going for you a command center hiding on the right I'm commencing of hiding on the left he tries to drop in the main to take out the store because the stalkers get some shots off before pulling back Colossus walk up to the high ground and Beyond he's feeling his hot sink right now because he really does not have a lot of things to play with there we go GG nice win for Estrella all right guys nice game one victory for Estrella in the top right representing bloody matcha Reno his new team good on him and he's up against Beyond but he's sending a probe across at the very start of this game is hoping to maybe catch a proxy Barracks or something like that but even as it is he can do some good harassment Beyond a little slow to pull that SCV oh but the SCV kind of doubled back quickly that was interesting and Australia's just gonna do some more harassment here oh big thank you for the subs guys sorry my alert sounds accidentally turning themself on shout out to those on YouTube that alert and oh Beyond okay if he turns he's gonna get hit if he's tired if he turns oh that was so smart Australia just kept going in a straight line because he just needed he needed to regen any Shields or hit points to survive there and then he does it again he's past five he survives another hit beautiful for Estrella Beyond pulling the SUVs not getting the kill that's super worth it for Australia and Beyond's gonna be shaking his head a little bit in disappointment frustration Nexus goes down pre-cybercore nice greedy build here for Australia oh and that's gonna work out very well okie dokie so it is actually going to be a marine expand it looks like for Beyond he's gonna go expand on The High Ground oh too close to the Sun probe hung around normally you can get away with that Scout if it's a marine or a Reaper and then move out but uh he was already too damaged so the probe does fall on the other hand he confirms it's a marine which means Australia's like cool I'm just gonna Chrono probes no worries dude second pylon's really late though oh what the hell Australia don't think I think that Chrono was too early I think he's gonna hit a little bit of a supply block here you meant to wait for that pylon to be almost finished before you Chrono that it is what it is he's gonna go Century first oh cute okay so we're going to see Australia's Century opening he could do this into blink or robo um the hallucination will Scout everything that Beyond's doing give him warning of what's happening so Australia wants to play with full information in this game now notice he's actually pulling off he's pulled off gas he's pulled off gas he's only got one worker on each gas he's doing the quick third Nexus build oh it's the Australia special this is one of my favorites this is one of my absolute favorite builds um he normally does this into three gates and then a robo and if you as the Terran get over eager and try to punish this with an early push you end up down in the dumps because he will have an immortal and a bunch of Gateway units obviously Australia's Twilight is so delayed with this style like he does end up in a bit of an awkward position with his Mobility lacking but a frontal attack doesn't work until after stim is finished and that's the mistake most terrans make now Beyond isn't scouted he's just gonna go for a Hellion hallucinations gonna Scout for Australia at the same time and it does look like the un's just going Marine tank is he going Marine tank Medevac or is that Tech Lab just to swap over and build a raven after this Medevac now he's building a siege tank okay Beyond is doing a peculiar build he has not scouted at all he has this decided before the game even started the Hallucination is seeing it I mean he knows what's going on that's a very aggressive opening no add-on on the starboard what are you doing it has to be a viking a Medevac or a liberator all more aggressive units at this stage of the game Tech Lab Factory likewise Cyclone or siege tank as opposed to the harassment units like hellions or widowmines second third gay Anna Robo coming in Australia's probing pretty darn well and remember that third Nexus pops you up in Supply a lot I was build a pilot on his natural just so he has a fast warping available there it's probing pretty hard but he should know this push is coming no Shield battery started I think Australia's messed up by not building a shield battery that's not going to be there and actually this is a decent little number of units he's only got a few stalkers and centuries Australia does not have an immortal he's building an observer Australia has misread this opening he had all the information he needed here but a big misplay for Estrella getting caught out he did not think that Beyond would be so brave this is such an odd push this is reminiscent of Ty in 2017 um winning you know 28 2017 I think it was when he when he won katowicea damn verb does go down as well as two centuries he's gonna pull the boys but watch out for the siege tank volleys oh no oh those probes are getting hammered Australia does Focus the tank down at which point his Marines will beat how stalkers will beat those Marines oh the Marines get another stalker though making the best of an awkward tail end of the fight he on there but Australia loses 13 workers and two centuries I said if you try to do a quick attack to punish it it won't work and you might be like well Pig you're so wrong guess what in a normal game you're building a Reaper you're scouting you're reacting with a fast push Beyond didn't react to anything in this game he chose to do that push before he even scouted the third base Beyond coming out with a super streamlined build he spent no money on scouting other than that Hellion he basically just went as hard as he possibly could now it was straight after defending that is doing some mad man shizz he's going double Forge and a robo bag what in the hell is that oh Australia sees two tanks moving out he should track that Army 100 he should track that Army but he wants to see the production he sees second and third barracks and starport coming up he's going to try to move out to intercept but that means the Liberator is going to catch him off guard that stalker can't really get in range of that oh that's that's a bummer okay stalker will chase the Liberator off he goes back to mining now let's kind of mess up a little bit there straighta may be playing a little frantically oh he's seeing the tanks pick up in the Medevac that's interesting and that Observer oh The Observer twerks its way to safety and uh Beyond's got to be frustrated by that having to drop two scans to clean this up remember Australia's being crazy greedy guys he's trying to go double Forge for gas right now he doesn't have charge started or nothing like that he's just like LOL and he's up 15 workers he's way ahead there's no third commands and it started Beyond needs to get Damage Done he needs to get it done now dance in the middle of the map for map control is so interesting to watch I'd like to see that Observer pull down and help defend it Liberator is going to go past barely Gets glimpsed By The Observer don't know if Australia noticed that he's only got three gateways right now he's also not got much Firepower the first Colossus is just emerging uh Liberator look at this he's going to Siege it on the natural to distract Australia while Estrella is trying to defend here at the third nice Siege up location you've got to go pretty far away from the shield battery to fight that and look at that catches him off guard great positioning by Beyond Estrella was maybe expecting him in the main but not the natural stalkers are going to try and drag these widowmines away from the center of mass Colossus does take care of those units a good hold for Australia Australia's actually going to clean this up but wait wait is Colossus it got clicked on a marine his Colossus got targeted on a marine and he's distracted by The Liberator right now he's not watching oh no he throws away at Colossus because this Liberator has been so well microed by beyond that should have been a game-ending hold that third Command Center is not even finished you're on 60 workers if he holds that keeps the Colossus alive then he's perfectly fine and he's 100 but right now Beyond is desperate to get more damage done he says well I kill the Colossus maybe there's an opportunity slow zealots are so immobile you don't want to drop right on top of them though I guess he says I've got the numbers I can drop right on top of them the stalkers and the Zealot pulling back that Shield battery is not really helping right now he needs it over on the left somewhere slow zealots are going to buy time but they're not going to actually kill anything stalkers and the Colossus coming up but that's the whole Army of Australia and look at that he loses almost nothing picks up gets out the Medevac survives and now there's the real problem it's okay he's gonna recall down there but that means he's leaving almost no units in the main the stalkers need to hit they need to hit the the full matter of fact they should they click on the wrong one oh this redrop for beyond beyond so far behind economically or at least he was but he's getting in right before 1-1 upgrades he forces the recall back to the third and he gets so many stalker kills and that's the real value you might think well he's not killing him he's not guys but nine stalkers is so valuable look at the unit Source tab 50 more efficient and now he's got his third up now he's got all those normal pieces of the game 2-2 charge and Viagra all on the way right now Viagra is almost finished but 2-2 in charge of miles away Beyond making a terrible choice to fight this with just scvs he's gonna lose seven scvs to choose L it's not a great trade but it's because he wants to keep his momentum on the front gets a few more stalkers for some bio units takes out the pylon on The High Ground of that cliff Colossus and the stalkers are going to take this out the Widow Minds fire on the zealots having to sacrifice these units because he's only got one Observer for detection and it's in the middle of the map Australia needs to see where the Army is rotating to oh the stalker zealots gonna try to defend but dude you can't afford to lose these stalkers the battery's not quite ready Beyond's Focus fire is insane he ignores the zealots stutter steps forward focuses down another seven stalkers bring it up to 17 stalkers killed in total those units are so expensive this is always the problem with a style like this as Australia is if you're at a position once and you lose your stalkers you've got to rebuild the bad unit the stalker is not a good unit every time he has to warp in more and then lose them immediately it's such a good trade for Beyond who is maintaining a 2 000 resource lost Advantage Estrella starts a fourth base in the midst of it if anyone can take a punch and bounce back it is Australia but right now six gateways he's finally got charging 2-2 kicking in it's a minute till 2-2 and only about 15 seconds till charge that's gonna help him out a lot having some zealots in there really will be massive he's got one Colossus at the bottom uh at his third one in the main and he's actually swapping to Immortals I think it's because he realizes he's behind he knows Vikings are coming so Australia's already trying to prepare for the next step of the game where the Viking count is going to be so high he knows he can't contest that so he's like well let's already preemptively move away from the Colossus and let's move into some Immortals he's gonna get a Templar archives he's got six gases up does this straight Australia needs to transfer workers right now his main and his third are both massively oversaturated but his fourth is very exposed out there it doesn't feel like a very safe fourth straight is going for a counter attack two zealots in the third Zella dropping the main for strike and buy himself about a minute to get out some more maybe disruptors or cystorm or something it could be really huge for him this is going to pull a lot of Beyond's forces home you can see on the minimap Beyond's whole Army is starting to track home all bad Zealot whooping badzilla whooping always straight okay good cancel he unseages the war prism which does let that get canceled this is a good trade with these zealots and most importantly it buys him a lot of time 11 12 SUVs go down and if he Focus fires you can get a few more as well oh my God he's getting so many is getting so many guys 19 Beyond not handling that one very well he takes 19 SCV losses and gives up a bit of momentum now Australia he's trying to go storm plus three armor plus three attack on the way so he's gonna go for three three upgrades right now he's up two upgrades I kind of feel disrupters are still necessary though because ghosts are coming in there's eight Vikings The Colossus are gonna do nothing you're basically fighting Mass Gateway versus Mass bio ghost now you might say the upgrades are there double upgrade advantage that's good yeah if ghosts come though I will take EMP over a double upgrade Advantage any day of the week especially because stim bio is simply better than Zealot stalker The Immortals might help even that out cystorm is on the way or if he can get an effective storm drop that'd be great there's a lot of Vikings it's hard to storm drop when they've got so many vikings there's no Shield batteries there's no Shield batteries here oh no he's fighting away from Shield batteries he has one building in his natural but the one on his third is way too far south oh no Shield battery over charge would have been game changing in this sort of fight he's gonna try and storm the Vikings drop oh big mistake for Beyond but great pickup he just saved about 12 Marauders deep in the red the Vikings liftoff take out that prison the stalkers are going to start chasing them uh Colossus are building right now as our arc on stalkers and zealots Australia is so far ahead economically he's still down in army supply but right now tutu's finishing which means the upgrade Advantage is disappearing and 3-3 is not done yet and and that means right now is a very weak moment for Australia Five ghosts coming in with EMP he needs doubled Robo or something he needs disruptors he needs something to hold on his high Templar are way too clumped right now he's got to be so careful oh no he's lost his only Observer he's got so little map vision Beyond needs to kill him right now although Beyond cannot drag this out he's got pressure on him Beyond you've got to go now feedback's the land for the high Templar but that means there's no sidestorms here we go the battery overcharges down on the bottom but these Immortals aren't really near it right now and oh man that is just too much bio there's no Firepower here for Australia his Colossus pops out it's going to Waddle down here into this battle but it's going to be too late man Australia takes a few punches in that game but just hats off to be on it was the focusing of the stalkers the crazy dropping and redropping of the main that allowed him to win that game that very well could have been a 2-0 win for Australia but beyond shows a very good understanding of how to take advantage of Australia's lack of Mobility skipping Lincoln Phoenix Beyond knew that if you could just keep dropping and focusing the store because they only got it well played all right the crazy defensive build didn't quite work out for him in that last game got out positioned just a little Australia in the bottom left side and now behind the top right of Royal Blood I always feel like in a game like that as the protest player you don't necessarily feel like ah the build was defunct and I you know I screwed up and stuff because it's one of those things where it's like yeah you need to make a small mistake or two but your opponent also needs to happen to be so decisive and almost a little fortuitous like there's a little bit of luck in how your armies interact in position and how your armies split up and I really feel that the um the first push just kind of surprised to Strayer in that game really right the sentries were not the right call sentries are really good against a slightly later push I think but the centuries one of the right call building an observer instead of an immortal early uh big mistake for him and having to lose so many probes right right from the start I think Australia that was a big mistake and then later on it was just a positioning thing where it didn't split his army quite right it's always tough because slow zellets are not upgraded still because the stim bio is one of the nastiest interactions to behold but Australia can afford to be a little inefficient in that last strategy he can't be afford to be that inefficient as he was in that game though there's there's oh yeah I'm trading a little worse but it's okay because I have three bases up so early and then there's I lost 20 stalkers for a few Marines and Marauders okay this is this is not good the Marine hides itself to try and trick Australia into thinking a Reaper is going to come out because the reaper pops later it's a really interesting play by Beyond he's going for a marine inter-reactor expand into a second barracks ooh this might even be a classic three racks now Australia's chronoing an Adept because he thinks there's a Reaper coming there is not so interesting to see and for a second I thought he was going to take a gold base I was like what [Music] all right what do you got oh third barracks man three Barracks builds a nasty Twilight council is on the way for Estrella if you realize it's a three Rex it's much simpler um the thing is I mean there's no way Beyond's gonna leave that Depot down right so it's very unlikely you get wind to this that SCV is one hit from death attempting to dive in there and try to one hit it not able to wait what he's building a marine okay yeah that was a mistake cancels it builds attack lab and he's gonna start a bunker now as well now that bunker might give away that's kind of a late bunker and you might be like wait why are you building a bunker because don't you have widowmines or hellions or Cyclones coming out the only reason you'd build a bunker usually is if you're going for a three racks so this might actually Peak Australia's curiosity he might he might realize hmm where's the Cyclone you know where is the Widow of mine that borrowers out here to stop the pressure with those builds you'd build a bunker much earlier right but he didn't need to because he was making lots of Marines early so why is he building a bunker now oh that's a very quick Third Base oh no it's a two gate blink third oh straight does not know what's happening right now on the other hand he's delayed his Robo which is a good choice oh he's gonna sacrifice an adapt genius play by Australia it has a longer Vision than the shade he knows it's a three racks now and he can defend with Shield batteries um so if I want to get a battery there battery over here as well I would imagine actually build it behind the wall off and he's gonna try and just make non-stop stalkers as well as Chrono boosting blink to deal with this blink store because very effective at stopping a three racks but Fiona's gonna have a sheer quantity of units that is uh going to be hard to deal with engineering Bay is there now I wonder does Robo get skipped entirely for Australia does he feel like playing balls to the wall greed but now it's going to be a third Gateway coming in stalkers pick off a marine blink's not ready he's got to be careful stim's not here either but those Marauders have equal range to the stalkers and they do double damage to them good Micro by Australia so far but as he loses his shields on that stalker he's gonna have to be a bit more careful don't want to be losing that oh all right blink is ready gets a bunch of these marines so far four Marines on an SUV have gone down for just that one scouting in-depth sacrifice in this game and you can't continue to push in I like that Beyond's using The High Ground and kind of trying to keep a stray of guessing you can see look at Australia's Vision guys he's like where's that Army where is it which way is it coming you know he's trying to move around and make sure he doesn't get surprised it's uh definitely keeping him nervous but by just by threatening like this Beyond his gonna Force Australia to mess up on his macro a little bit and we can see it 500 minerals in the bank robo's there you're very nervous when is that Army gonna show up and always going to be careful that Army could stem on him when he's not looking oh this stalker comes from the other side for The High Ground Vision oh that was cute that was really cute forces the stem out Bianna has to go home starts at fourth and fifth barracks but I think he realizes it'll get scouted by the stalkers so he cancels Bill starts building in the main instead oh my God Bianna is really committed right now to what is a massive massive two base production uh lots of gateways and charges on the way oh man I feel like Zealot stalker is really good at dealing with an early push but beyond if he waits for those five barracks and medevax to kick in then I don't know if this is the right call there we go okay Robert Bay does go down I was going to say what you really need is Splash damage and Colossus is usually King in this sort of game dark Shrine as well okay that might be a little bit too much Australia's going for a dark Shrine and a robo Bay and six gate Zealot stalker and three sentries it's a very interesting mix force fields very good with Colossus against this bioforce because remember with the three racks the starboard's so late you don't really have Vikings out you're only now getting your first two medevacs on the field at six minutes 30. both in fifth Barracks building attack lab and a reactor ready to receive careful Australia does lose a stalker there for I think only one Marine that bio is going to try and chase him down Observer sees him stalkers come in oh that's another marine or two good micro Bay Australia so far but his numbers are just a bit low he gets an immortal out starts at Colossus I mean look at the Army supply 62 verse 40 or now 50. Observer gets scanned and that means Beyond can drop the main base that's a somewhat predictable maneuver I would say but uh just because you can predict that it probably is a likely option it doesn't mean it's easy to stop splits four stalkers into the main base charge is now already the first Colossus about to hit the field extended thermalance is on the way I say about it the field still 10-15 seconds away on that Colossus actually no third Command Center in sight for beyond beyond is as all in as they come first Colossus is going to hit the field oh he's he's regrouping that drop back to his main Army this is interesting so beyond keeps kind of showing that the threat of the drop towards the main but not actually going for it in Australia he's got a shield battery there that can heal to about this area this one can only heal here these units out front oh good force fields really nice force fields here by Australia but his Colossus hasn't really landed any big hits on the Marine oh yeah he's going to be careful I think he's got to get over to the battery right now he's his force fields are running out he's got to be careful Beyond exhausts all of this entries there oh no blink on that stalker he'd use the blink aggressively let's get a widowmine Australia kind of wants to force the fight but he's got to be cautious I feel like that favored uh Beyond it did yeah he got a bunch of stalkers and sentries and zealots his unit's thoughts tab looking pretty good he's going to Doom drop the main base oh be unscans the Army out of position Australia oh that main base is in trouble right now luckily for him plus one we'll finish in time he's gonna walk in for dark Templar and start doing a backstab he's got to worry about defending that main base for now though Beyond here with a fierce intention does take out two stalkers with the Widow Minds the dark Templar is there but that kind of warns Beyond of what's coming and oh my God he didn't bring enough units to defend he left a few units out the front he doesn't have enough to defend the main or the third oh no the Colossus gets clicked on Beyond out positioning him and Australia gets too cute for his own good trying to go for the dark Templar against the two base all in he just didn't have the information he did not realize this was a two base all and he never scouted that lack of a third Command Center Estrella assumed you know yeah that's probably a third CC I'll go depend with Colossus stalker zelik go into dark Templar but now Beyond as large and in charge in terms of that Army and seems to have found the value no scans available right now dark Templar getting some good damage not actually able to finish any units off though Beyond even picking up and dropping finally a couple of Marines start to fall three Marines make it four and the stalkers are like Colossus if you can defend his third base then I do think Australia's fine trying to bait those widowmine shots a few stalkers do go down though he's got to defend this third base but look at that he doesn't want to throw his army into the meat grinder and he loses his third Nexus for it Australia's 26 worker Advantage isn't worth that much if he doesn't have the basis to mine from single Zealot drops in what prism goes in goes out both bases on the right actually oh he can transfer his probes there that's kind of cool the probes are gonna transfer he actually has a fourth in the bottom right Australia can use most of those workers rebooting his third right now dude how Australia I really thought he was going to crumble and die but as always he's so good at coming back in pvt he has a really unique characteristic very few players play pvt like Australia two Colossus are out third is halfway done but he's got to split his army this is the problem on this map look he's got great vision on the far left but this area where the Dune drops coming he is not ready he's gonna have to recall and that means that Army on the right could cause him a lot of trouble recall in the main I wouldn't be surprised to see beyond just leave but oh he gets a Colossus oh he does that marauda barely finishes the Colossus and he loses the empty Medevac only oh this is a disaster Australia finds himself deep in doo-doo town he's gonna have to start using his hands to paddle his way out of here he's gonna have to get his hands real dirty but oh no the probe's all getting trapped not a single probe getting out 27 workers go down on the fourth base the Nexus Falls there's still an army threatening on the left so Australia can't even collect his forces he's just outnumbered on every side dark Templar do walk in but each time they go in they kill one SUV the problem right now is dark Templar are good against an opponent who cares about their economy bian does not care about his economy he's on two bases this entire time Beyond does not need to keep his workers alive because he's already got double the Army Advantage so if backstabs aren't finding the mark they aren't finding any damage a new dark Templar goes in the main as well obviously Australia is trying to split his attention distract him all this sort of stuff but it's just not achieving that much is it and that dark Templar unfortunately in turret range does go down keeps on warping in these dark Templar and trying to keep the pressure up maybe intercepting the rally could work out but here we go Beyond's gonna force it right now Viking Marauder comes in the Colossus trying to hold the line that battery does not get overcharged because he'd already used it before this the Viking such a big problem for those Colossus one of them is deep in the yellow hit points stalkers will take care of those Vikings but he can't afford to lose this third Nexus not again Beyond's Army very wounded the dark Templar kills a few of them stalkers may be gonna blink after that they do get one Medevac shot down out of the sky I mean the problem for Beyond is the lack of mining because his Mains mining out but he lifts that up he's gonna float down to his third base and continue to base income Australia's Got Two Colossus and a model two dark Templar four stalkers in a dream he's warping in sentries right now for anyone who's ever watched hero when he's desperate we know about the late game Century warpins it's when you just don't have anything good to spend your gas on your mineral income keeps getting hammered so you end up with a big gas bank and you're like well maybe I'll warp in centuries 12 minutes into the game it's it's not like it's a bad play it's just a desperate play it shows how much Australia is put in a corner he doesn't have a Templar archive to spend that gas he could make dark Templar and use those as archons but they're very mineral heavy as well ghost Academy does go down as well so it's going to be Marauders Vikings ghosts all coming in still two Colossus alive from earlier in this game Australia's gonna hang in and try to survive but it does feel like that army supply is always so scary for him and now one One upgrades verse zero zero there's not a very good Viking compliment I guess there's only two ideally you get to six Vikings as Beyond get a few ghosts out and then you push you can push with three ghosts six Vikings the ghost will counter everything but actually astray is going to try to kill him Australia is like okay I need to get something done trying to force his way in but the Widow Minds making it hard for him to do that and Beyond look at that Great Lift of the command center just collecting his forces and he's got ghosts on the way but he might be able to fight pre-ghost he just doesn't want to get his army chopped up by force fields notice the way Beyond is very afraid of those force fields three go down two Marauders for one of them gets saved by the Medevac Observer goes down there which means Australia's vision is not as powerful and Beyond's waiting he's got ghosts out now one or two emps on those sentries in Australia's Army's gonna crumble he's trying to make plus one armor disrupt his more dark Templar but look at this watch this from Beyond's camera guys he's hunting look at that his ghosts moving off to the left he wants to land those emps he wants to land those emps oh my God watch out watch out Australia oh no massive emps land Beyond sets that trap up by moving a few bio units to the right to clean up a pylon Estrella thought he could get some units out in the open but he ends up being the one getting caught out there and even though he takes what looked like a good fight the rest of the army collapses in on him and the disruptors avoided Beyond just looking too strong right now that's a turgid Taryn if I've ever seen one and he's going to be tearing apart the terrible protoss uh because alliteration is fun Beyond just playing fantastic Starcraft guys Marine Marauder really killing it a few units do get split by the force fields but there's so little damage behind it that's the big problem stalkers and centuries do not beat bio ghost Medevac even when the buyer is split by force fields and heavily damaged look how quickly those stalkers crumble and Beyond after a very rough game one in this series and a tight game too does look to overwhelm in game three with a big five racks two base attack no Third Base Ever somehow the supply is still surprisingly close dude Australia actually making some insane defensive holds in this game I mean he's building a fourth Nexus it's not possible is it huh oh I totally forgot Australia was looking completely dead in this game and then for those who didn't know basically what happened here is beyond forfeited I totally forgot that this happened when I chose to cast this because I remember this was a very competitive series and basically what happened here is beyond had to take a break because he had to pause because his wrists were just in so much pain after this match in his previous matches and he actually called for a pause he was in so much pain and after a few minutes he basically said that the admins were like hey it's been five minutes like you need to resume right now basically and he said okay I forfeit like I literally can't play I'm in that much pain and it was kind of heart shattering when we saw it but um I I want to go in and just say quickly at the end like do we think that Beyond had this in the bag because I think he probably did I think a Strayer agrees he probably did because if you look at the income it's very similar 37 workers verse 45. um even though Australia is getting a fourth Nexus open that's just allowing him to maintain his work as having mining but he doesn't really have any big comeback play here it's equal upgrades and he's got extended thermal ants and a single Colossus but it's only one Colossus I feel like the bio ghost is always going to trade a lot better um in these scenarios so very well played here um but a very unfortunate that uh yeah basically uh Bianca had to Forfeit this match and Estrella goes through it said that uh he forfeited but Australia left the game yep so that's just because the score screen pops up that way yeah but anyway guys really well played by Australia to hang in there obviously I don't think he really thought ah he probably thought okay I have a 10 maybe 15 chance of getting back in this game but he at least you can tell how hard he made Beyond play Beyond had to do so many opportunistic Dives and constant micro and Australia made Beyond play his heart out and unfortunately you know it's one of these things where I don't know what we can possibly do or what Beyond can do to fix his wrists unfortunate way that things went shout out to Australia for playing as well as he did shout out to Beyond though we're once again showing that he is just an absolute monster in this matchup and look at that unit still stab 8 000 resources ahead GG well played but once again another heart-shattering moment for Beyond whenever he shows up to the big tournaments where those nerves get the better of him and he gets so tense and his wrists instantly get inflamed and he just has this insane pain that he never experiences at home when he's off camera either way GG well played I do think Beyond had an 80 chance or more of winning from this scenario uh I think he still had the army supply advantage and the problem for Australia is always going to be that he's such a low Army count Beyond can pick up drop two medevacs in the main and then push the far right side and there's no way Australia can possibly defend both of them so I think Beyond with wrists in good condition definitely would have won the game as it was though that's a big issue he's gonna have to fix over time GG well played thanks for watching guys sorry for the anti-climactic finish on this one but uh just a reminder of the fact that it's it's kind of crazy that Beyond has this weird issue and I hope he sorts it out thanks for watching guys bye [Music]
