someone please make this happen!

That game vs Select reminded me of a mech Terran vs Zerg... only Zerg was the "mecher." You don't typically see zerg's dominating the cost efficiency the way this style seems to. Thanks for sharing! I wish the other matchups allowed for as much variety in play styles as TvZ =(
I might be the minority on TL, but TL is the minority everywhere else.

Unfortunately it would be just as one-sided as Firecake vs Avilo

This to me looks more like:

--> Look - I made SH work well vs bio

rather than

SH crushes bio

Come on.. If there's anything that's not a part of your build are the SHs

If anything - this is - Roach/Hydra/Infestor crushes bio
Another world, another place, another universe, won the race.. :) ;) :P

Only just saw this response, sorry for the slow reply! (PIG accidentally writing on gf account lol)

Well the thing is the SH is the key new piece of the puzzle. We always knew that if bio/tank is forced to YOLO into roach-hydra-infestor-viper then it will get owned, but the issue was the terran could split up more, could patiently just deny creep-spread and just hold good positions, refusing to go into chokes or clump up for fungal/blinding cloud. The constant nibbling of locusts stops all these things from working. They force the bio player to come to you, and that is when the "base" of the composition becomes viable.

(LOL wrote this on my gf's PC/account - my bad.)

Any more videos / vods / replays with Sh against bio? Especially against constantly dropping bio. I suppose there must be tactic, when Zerg forcing terran to defend instead of trying to drop

Not any vods or replays on hand at the moment, but I will say that you have to be comfortable sitting back and focusing on defend-defend-defend vs drop play. If they don't commit but leave these sections of army on the map you can engage them with your infestors and just a few hydras. The real goal is to keep spreading creep and the moment they stop attacking you, to push out and start pressuring with your infestors, abducting medivacs/tanks/thors and continuing to trade super efficiently. During the drop phase the only deterrent to drops is sick defence and the infestor-hydra catching sections of bio on the map. Gl hf!
