True, but an Infested Terran & Zergling attack as the spire completes could easily win you the game, especially if your IT can kill the mutas in their eggs. (And if you do good damage, you can certainly afford a few spores.) I'm not sure if the timing actually allows this, though. Spire takes a long time to build, but you might need to beat your opponent to Lair to pull it off. Man, this'll be sweet for 2v2s... | ||

If you plant a queens nest and a spire at the same time, and hatch a queen when the nest is done, you only have a handful of seconds before mutas are being hatched after the queen is finished. Given the travel time to the center, time taken to infest, and build time of the infested terran taking such a long time, mutas will already be out and only 1 infested terran will be made. zerg would clean up that and kill you. | ||

Not to mention you have to damage the CC first. | ||

![[image loading]](http://www.taowayoflife.com/images/sacredGeometry_5starCIRCLE.gif) In ancient Chinese philosophy, the flow of yin and yang are responsible for the creation of the five elements. The five points of the pentacle symbolize the element of fire (which creates earth), earth (which creates metal), metal (which creates water), water (which creates wood), and wood (which creates fire). | ||

(What game was that anyway?) Nvm here it is, for those who are interested: http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/games/2032_Cool_vs_NaDa/vod I remember Hyavva infesting Hwasin in SWL a few months back. http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/games/11366_Hwasin_vs_hyvaa/vod | ||

While this is informative, the pentagram symbolizes a lot of different things depending on which culture you look at and what time period. | ||

The entire unbuildable makes a manji, which is the overall picture anyways. | ||
