Aprox pick, and out comes Coast to coast. Didn't see that one coming. I was expecting Town and country.

So the two collide on the most minimalistic, anal UC map there is.

Suprisingly, RVD sucks arse with his BO and UC early on. Aprox gets the upper hand in the sea with ease. RVD has to do the Commander walk of shame in the water to score some much needed metal for his guardian. Yes, early guardian on C2C. So very not irish.

But this game turns into something epic. Aprox is really something when it comes to building that extra +3-4 metal, without actually going into builder mode. The game is pretty much non stop action, but he can still somehow get more metal into his economy.

RVD shows some top notch attacking UC a few times, and ace nano skills at crucial moments.

This would have been a 9 or 9.5 if it wasn't so dirty. But then again, it's a challenge and when you really need to win, that clean fair fight is only optional.
