Stephano v TIME: Macro Game

TIME (Oliveira)

• Race: Terran 
• Spawn Location: 5:00

Stephano - Winner!

• Race: Zerg 
• Spawn Location: 11:00

Stephano opens Hatch First while TIME goes for a 1 Rax Expand. Stephano follows up with an early 3rd, but he gets Zerglings out just in time when the Reaper arrives to delay until the Queen finishes. Stephano gets a full scout at 4:00 about TIME's 3rd CC and tech, so TIME follows up with a Hellion drop in the main but doesn't do much damage while Stephano continues to get creep coverage.

At 6:00, TIME goes for a big push and clears out creep for it, but Stephano still gets a big surround with Zerglings and Banelings. He clears out the Tanks but is unable to capitalize on it with a counter push.

As both players approach max armies, TIME starts to mix in Liberators for harass while Stephano continues to mass Zerglings. He starts his +3/+3 upgrades at 9:40 just as TIME sets up for another push on Stephano's next expansion, but Stephano gets a big surround to push it back again. TIME continues to keep marching at home.

Instead of going for Ultralisks, Stephano follows up with 2 Spires and Adrenal Glands. TIME sets up multiple drops and Liberators on mineral lines, and Stephano responds with a push. Both players start trading across the map while TIME is losing SCVs, but both players have significant banks left.

At 14:00, Stephano starts adding Corruptors for the Liberators while TIME gets Marauders to deal with the Banelings. Both Stephano and TIME manage to take down opposing bases. As they trade, Stephano stays maxed on Zerglings and Banelings while TIME's supply drops but adds in a few Ghosts.

TIME turtles up to protect his mining bases, but Stephano overwhelms him with multiple Zergling attacks to force a GG.
