    It was very nice of Maru to constantly be out on the map. Trading marines for roaches while Dark was maxed out meant that Maru never had enough marines and Dark always had the supply to make more roaches.

    • @M0ebius
      @M0ebius 11 месяцев назад +7

      It’s because Maru got behind in a couple of those games and wanted to exert pressure on Dark to limit expansions, force out units instead of drones, and discourage counter attacks, all while Zergs lack anti-air against Terran medevacs.
      The problem was Dark’s defense was so on-point and was consistently a step ahead in reading Maru’s movements with impeccable Queen positioning.

    I love how Maru was just getting repeatably punched in the face during the first 3/4 of game 1, even losing those medivacs to queens and he still kept calm and kept getting back up. It's like that one episode of South Park with Randy Marsh vs. Batdad. "Hey Batdad, I didn't hear no bell."
