This has to be one of the most fun games I ever played. It's zvz. Opponent opens up with a 9pool/lair while I do 12hatch. I lose my natural, but an impulsive tactic turns the game around.

Ah yes I love it when this works. I find it's most effective against 1hatch muta since they can't make enough lings, so their sunken has to be in their mineral line. But he could've held his ramp better.
No I'm never serious.

After Blind loses his 12hatch, he sends a couple drones along with his speedlings to drone drill (I assume), but before the drones get there, his opponent lets him up the ramp. Blind then places two creep colonies, protects them with superior ling numbers, and morphs one sunk and one spore in his opponent's base, with also one of each to protect his own. A small sunk war ensues and then Blind's opponent suicides his mutas.

awesome game!!
Whenever I encounter some little hitch, or some of my orbs get out of orbit, nothing pleases me so much as to make the crooked straight and crush down uneven places. www.day9.tv

Would the Z at 12 have won if he sent his mutas directly to 6 main instead of trying to use them to defend his own main?

I think so. If he sent them to 6 and just killed drones, and placed a second hatchery in his main.

Good game. Well played.

Actually, I think he responded fine. He killed my second hatch, so he knew I couldn't produce lings fast enough to all-in ling him. That's why he started making drones. After he lost control of his ramp, he still had his sunken colony to fall back on. And if I were to sunken rush, he would have mutas in time before the sunken could do too much damage.

I'm quite sure he assumed both creep colonies were morphing into sunken colonies. In the game, he was making a defensive sunken colony right after I put down my colonies in his base, but then he canceled it. This is probably because he thought his mutas would be able to take care of what he thought were 2 sunken colonies.
