probably not, rush never attacked efficiently enough for mind to feel like he'd lost, and he had a huge bank for a majority of the game.

Dynamic lighting legitimately makes it harder to differentiate these sort of things, even stuff like marines and medics can be hard to tell apart at a glance. Terran in general looks like it's covered in ash with it on.

except you can't do that with the new observer interface

Next group games from monday till wednesday? thought they keep sunday till tuesday?

Big props to FlashFTW for the educated casting, identifying the supply count being held hostage by Rush's dropship being the reason for their armies being at equal power even when he had a 50 supply lead is something that most commentators would have missed and arguably the most important call of the game.

Still amazed Mind pulled that off. Awesome comeback for mind.
When he lost the middle for the 2nd time after he sent some of his army to the north position I thought it was over for him.

When Mind was down 40-50ish supply, I thought he was just pulling a FanTaSy GG timinig. The frequent lag didn't help so imagine my surprise when I heard game sounds after like 5 minutes. I need to watch this transpire again.

He wasn't just down in supply he had to rebuild all his depot's and fair chunk of the rest of his base. That's super expensive in a game that went to the point of mining out and with Rush bascially going two bases up on him too.
Do we count taking the 12 O'clock that should have been Mind's as going up two bases alone? because taking the centre as well makes Rush 3 bases up. Or does maths not work like that.

Thanks! Although I feel like I realized it far too late when I had already started counting Mind out. But yes, even with a huge supply lead, Rush was not trading favorably and most of the supply was still in the dropships which allowed Mind to hold on. Mind's defenses that game were absolutely insane and being able to retake the middle was so important. Really feel like Rush gave up a lot this game, needed to hold the middle to just squeeze out a couple more goliaths or tanks would have been the end of mind but alas, mistakes happen. BCs in late game terran reign supreme and Mind knew that with yamato he'd win the game.
Thanks all for listening in! My voice is completely gone from that last game I'm surprised I kept it up the entire cast like that but hey, proud of myself for lasting that long

Yeah I saw that at least. When Mind finally caught up with the supply difference, he was down like 40 lol

12 was never supposed to be minds in a split scenario. In the end they mined pretty much the exact same amount. Mind right side and 6 (including right side of the mid base). Rush left side and 12 (including left side of the mid base)

I'm really glad a casting team like yours is being allowed to happen, especially with Artosis and Tasteless going so far overboard in the opposite direction I have no idea who would want to listen to them. This is the first time since Klazart I've been happy to listen to an English cast over the Korean one.

I've still enjoyed Tastosis cast. I like to listen to them commentate game still. But yer they can be a bit goofy sometimes. Each to their own, I guess.
|
O.K I'm going to withdraw my opinion/comment untill I've re-watched but it looked lke the map was split down the middle with Rush taking the 6 and Mind taking the 12 O'clock at the top. Maybe I got that wrong or that's not the normal situation just the way this one developed. I though Rush mind a lot more.

So was the last game actually worth the watch? The poll was a bit biased
