[s]event[/s]In a showgame dedicated to the re-opening of » Rush-Time.net, the French progamer ElkY faced Raven, a National Polish player, in a series of best of five.
Rush-Time.net is a French website who recently opened their doors again to show up a third version. They cover the two Blizzard Real Time Strategy games StarCraft: Brood War and WarCraft III. Now, to celebrate their revival, they had ElkY playing Raven.
Started out really close
The first game on Lost Temple was really close, but ended in Raven's favour. Both players were Terran, which meant a lot of cliff drops, expansions and pushes.
The next game was on Nostalgia, where both players once again were Terran. ElkY attacked early, hoping to even the score, although it didn't work that well at first. He would have to wait until his Ghosts started doing their magic. After a wellplaced nuke in Raven's main, it didn't take long until the 'gg' came from the Polish National Member.
But then Raven advanced
The third game was played on Dahlia of Jungle, which showed Raven doing a Wraith rush on Lurker-teching ElkY, which slowed the Frenchman down a lot. Raven then pushed ElkY's base with Marines, Medics, Tanks and a Science Vessel, and the game was basically over. Despite ElkY's other expansions with Ultralisks on the way, the progamer was now down with 1-2.
Battlecruiser battle
As almost every TvT series, at least one game ends in a Battlecruiser battle, and this last game was no exception. Raven landed '8 on Xeno Sky and ElkY at '4, which worked out good for Raven. An under-cliff harass with Tanks cost ElkY a lot of SCVs in the beginning, which naturally slowed him down.
Later on it evolved to the Battle Cruiser fight that was in the air. They battled at the '6 expansion, where ElkY had one of his expansions. The battle hardly even started before ElkY surrendered.
