I absolutely disagree. He used them very very bad, that's all. If you build Restorers you need to love every single one of them and never let one of them die. He wasted them all the time, did no micro vs. FLAK or ints and didn't even bother to build an air staging facility.
If I would have been this Restorer guy you would have been begging for mercy tongue.gif
The most imba thing about Restorers is that you can keep them alive forever in beginning. That's why you can get about 20 in a few minutes.
In addition he never used strat bombers when he had air sup (which could have sniped you easily) and he should have built T3 scouts after the first 3-5 Restorers. That was probably the worst Restorer use I've ever seen. Don't get me wrong, I think he's a pretty good player, but attacking with a 500 HP Restorer (or multiple later) instead of repairing (100 mass, 5 seconds) is just epic fail. Also keep the Restorer swarm together until you killed all air and scout with 1 Restorer of your swarm before you attack a base with the rest as you will never lose vs. surprising FLAK that way.
This mistakes lead to another problem: Veterancy, one of the Restorers strengthens. He eliminated this strength totally as he was careless with his Restorers and didn't repair one.

Restorers are actually not a win-button, a bit skill and tactic is also required.

Testingfreak - good review thumb.gif, agreed with all points.
Some more remarks:

Yes, could have sniped commander easily. Starting from t=25 min till t=30 min there was a 5 minutes! window, where Meph's commander was rather exposed, before he eventually built a shield on t=30. Even Restorers would be sufficient to do the job provided he gathered all of them in that particular spot.

First of all good plan and then attention to what are you doing on the battlefield.
