dKiller vs SixJaxTerran

So Catz will be playing winner loser of this match.  Still trying to get the hang of these double elimination matches.



Game 1
Dkiller had a good chance in early game, got lot pressure on early with speedling pressure.  Transitioned into Muta, ling, blin.

But SixjaxTerran has real strong mid game play, managed to force GG out of dKiller after some vicious pounding in the midgame.

Think I would recommend some type of 2 base all in timing for most zerg players vs him.

SixjaxTerran 1-0

Game 2
Sixjax goes Reaper scout into Blueflame hellion.  Killer is going for real fast Infestor, also neat use of Macro hatch to narrow ramp entrance.


Sixjax attacks with Marine Tank + couple of Hellions.  dKiller cleans up the attack easily, but keeps mis microing or over extending his Infestors, loses more of them than he neccesary to tank fire, unless he is doing a version of Destinies buid?  Were you just make tons of Infestors and accept attrition of them as a cost effective trade.

dKiller is teching to Ulras and Nydus!  Looks like SixjaxTerran is teching to BC's.  Crackling upgrade incoming.

Nydus in your Main!  Ultra in your main!!!!

  Dkilller hits 3rd and delays minginfor a while, then another nydus in the MAIN mineral line, not noticed!!!!  Two Ultras pop out plus couple of lings.

Banshees on the way.  Udder chaos, little fights and Marine Drops all over + Banshee Attacks.

dKiller adds spire late, and makes mutas to handle Drops and Banshee harass.

Oh noes!  dKiller has lead but Sixhax takes Gold on dKiller's side, and dKiller doesn't see it.  Whew, he dKiller sees gold base and takes it out.

Some sick fungals on SCV's moving to Gold on Sixjax's side!

Starts massing Ultras.  Suddenly it is Ultras gone wild!

Forces GG out of SixjaxTerran.

dKiller 1-1 SixJaxTerran


Think I am becoming a fan of dKiller, I have been trying to figure builds that would work with crackling + Ultra, because I think they are very strong and efficient combo if they just can be transitioned into smoothly.  Infestor followed by Ultra/Nydus simultaneously might be the key.  Ultra good vs building or massed peasants, add few speedlings, the Ultras in base, via Nydus, mean you need some type of serious number of units to take them out,  Probably means whole army has to come back, opens expos to attack with ground army.


Game 3

Muta ling bling vs Blueflame Hellion into Tank Marine.  Baneling speed up as SixJAx tries to kill 3rd (no units at 3rd yet).  3rd us sniped think battle slightly favored Sixjax.

dKiller remakes 3rd and Sixjax moves out to snipe it again which he does or forced cancel,  and dKiller wipes out attacking army.

Several very close battels as Sixjax keeps threatening 3rd base.


Now that dKiller is able to fend off pushes through middle, SixjaxTerran starts dropping north and south sides of map simultaneously.

dKiller is forced to GG

SixJaxTerran takes series 2-1
