I think he wanted to show how the endgame would have gone, had the zerg not gg'd as early as he did.

Hehe I wasn't thinking about the VOD when I kept playing. I think I just wasn't fully satisfied with my kill and wanted to flex my power! As I climb the ranks, soon I will have an opponent who can give me some satisfaction

vs pool first your 3 zealots and 2 probes or so usually hit quite hard so you could've done that, scared him and pulled back.

and I don't know why you would waste your first 5 zealots even if you think it will make him underestimate you..losing 5 zealots just like that isn't a good choice imo. Seems to me like you are quite passive, you can have your zealots out at all times and just kinda take hits at him back and forth till you realise he has too many lings and just pull back safely.

Btw, is there any chance of some of your old commentaries being reuploaded like the Arbiter one? ;o

i think that's definitely a valid choice and i used to do that all the time when lost temple was played for every single game and the situation was therefore common. i think i've even made another vod a long time ago that showed that. but nowadays i feel like constant pressure only works out if the protoss has started off with a faster rush and did slower tech. with faster tech and stronger econ and slower rush, i like the "two waves" and suicide approach against a pool-first zerg. i like to have barely any zealots alive at the time when im expanding. but honestly i could have easily lost perspective because sometimes i stick to one tactic too much and forget to consider others.
