This made me laugh and fist pump. Heres the replay of a TvZ game where i open reactor hellion but instead of expanding i cloak banshee behind it. Its definitely a meta game opener since most zergs assume you re hellion expanding. but the magic happens a little after 8 min. All ill say about the game really is just play a little game called "wheres commander" with the hellions.

edit* lol my bad

I'd suggest editing in the replay, champ.

Also reactor hellion into a cloaked banshee is reasonably common. It's really good if you've got the control for it.

Cloak banshee after reactor helllion is extremely common and not in the least a "meta game opener".

All of this is beside the fact that there is no replay.
Oh, and do you expect people to download your replay and watch it off of your 5 sentence paragraph?
You're probably better taking SS's and doing a writeup up with witty captions, if you want to do this sort of thing.

No replay.. man, this is awkward

side note: This transition happens a lot to me, zergs who arent bad should have an evo chamber wall (capability for spores) anyway, the game was likely a fluke
