BC2010 SC2 Invite: Fenix vs. SoftBall
Set 1: Metalopolis - Fenix Wins
SoftBall went for some early banshee harass, however with good turret placement and a viking Fenix repelled it fairly well. Fenix counter-harassed with delayed banshees inflicting heavy economic damage and pulling far ahead. Fenix pulled out the win with a large marine and tank push and catching SoftBall out of position.
Set 2: Delta Quadrant - Fenix Wins
Both sides started out with making a single reaper for scouting and harass, however Softball’s reaper ended up being much more effective due to the starting positions. Fenix proceeded to come out on the losing side of the first exchange. After SoftBall got his second expansion Fenix knew he had to make a game changing move and opted to expand to the gold, the move payed off, SoftBall never scouted the gold expansion and Fenix pulled ahead in economy. In Fenix’ game deciding push he caught SoftBall out of position once again and decimated the opposing army, then proceeded to destroy SoftBall’s natural expansion, cutting him off from defending his third. Fenix’ final push broke up SoftBall’s ramp and won him the game.
