i think he speaks of his wall forge can gate and the a second forge to block the lings but still let 4 lings get up the ramp come now, from someone playing 12 hours a day one can expect to know how to block a 5pool better especially since its an insta win if zerg doesnt do any dmg

great goes 5pool, best goes early forge, scouts the cheesy play and horribly messes up his wall.

Best tries a gimmick wall in with gateway/ double forge 1 canon, it has a hole in it and fails, Great slips 4 lings in and gets way ahead vs Best's mediocre probe micro. Great then goes for 2hat hydra slow drop.

It's a new map though, walls take time to be built, even in the pro scene. He seemed to have the right idea though, but that doesnt cut it T.T.

Even the micro in Best`s base was noting spectacular,but the WTF moment was how best could let great sneak 4 from 6 zerglings in his main in the first place..He should have used atleast 3 probes to guard the choke and prevent the lings from going in the main and another 4 probes to defend as much as they can until the cannons warp.Actually pulling all of his probes would have been much better considering how much mining time he lost trying to defend against 4 zerglings in his base till the zealot popped.

lol so he went 1 cannon and tried to make perfect wall vs 5 pool FAIL.

hm. im pretty sure he has played this map like over a hundred times til today, many of those games will have been pvz. i guess figuring out a solid wall and then how to prevent 4/5/6pool are the first things they study. at least that's what i would do t.t €: oh wow best built 2 main can when going 2 star gates? lol

Great's APM was 473/554 in the second game.

man if Canata advances when Best didn't that will make me so sad

Even with the delayed mining, Best was still ahead at that point as he had only lost 3 probes and had the gateway built. Best lost the game when he did not respond to the overlords fast enough. There was enough time before the overlords dropped to warp in a few more cannons and delay with the zealots he had.

One Protoss out...
Free! Please make it

Canata with an evil smile.

Plus he should have focused on getting the last overlord down instead of failing to get the first.
