You are on the clock, you want to nullify at least 4 spore towers before you sit back and upgrad, go for more if you can. Difficulty high 6/10. No scripts. Do i need to pause, probably. Don't forget power zone relays. Good luck and have fun

Nicely done.
You have to beat it to know how to beat it.
Will have another go to see if I can lose about a second.
Thanks,
H

So what is the trick here?
I got the two spores on the top isles and the two spores on the bottom. But then i eventually get overwhelmed by the creep right when the first bertha gets ready to shoot.

Here's a screen grab at 4:40.
Just to show you my positioning.

Thanks. I rushed the top left and then the middle emitter and placed a reactor on the top right power zone as soon as that emitter died - as seen on the screenshot and that indeed made the difference. Beat it in 34.08 and wonder how it would be possible to get it done in less than ten minutes.

We have quite a few players here who are one with the computer and can post times that normal people can't even imagine.
There are a few people I like to compete with, but as Dirty Harry said: "A man's gotta know his own limitations". (My primary rule for happy living.)
