So me and Camlito were having a Bo9 all matchups. And so we're up to game 3 and Cam chooses ZvZ on 815 - like the epic YellOw vs GGplay match. Here is the game below...
So Camlito decides to open with a 5 pool with intent to sunken rush. One of his drones in this picture has already left to go scout
I 9 drone scouted his 5 pool and made a delayed 11pool (was going to 11hatch) and a colony in my mineral line
So here comes the zergling rush - there is no way my sunken will finish before the pool dies
Nope! Those lings can't kill me yet - those eggs are zerglings btw
So yea, those zerglings morphing in the eggs couldn't take down the sunken game is pretty much lost at this point. Knowing that the sunken would take ages to kill my hatch I was hoping for an outside chance win since I had lots of $$$ and my pool was about half way.
So then Cam decides that he is stupidly ahead and wants to bm me. Just to add insult to injury
WTF MY SUNKEN IS ATTACKING HIS NOW FOR SOME REASON LOLOL (explained here). The reason it can attack is because he proxied a low priority target within range of my sunken while his sunken was attacking me
So Cam 5 pools me and I go for a 12hatch but scout on 9. I see 5 pool and go oh fuck and make pool instead of hatch. Cam goes along and sunken rushes me and kills my pool but i manage to get a sunken up in my minline - obviously out of range of Cam's own sunken. With the game practically won for Camlito he decides to humiliate me by manner extractoring me - in doing so MY SUNKEN ACTUALLY ATTACKS THE SUNKEN hahahaha I didn't think stryker's thread would actually be applicable in a real game
5 pooling on 815 was really smart, because when you saw the map choice you probably instantly thought "ok time for an epic macro game like GGplay vs Yell0w"
You sure are on lucky sob. You probably could have killed his first sunken a little faster if you attacked with your initial zerglings though, instead of waiting those few precious seconds!

He 5 pooled, and had 3 drones for the majority of the game. My economy was far superior and I would have rolled him easily.
I think you could have tried making the game a draw the game without relying on luck. You could have taken your drones to his main in order to prevent him from mining. He had 3 drones and (probably) 2 incoming lings, while you had 7(9?) drones. You could have sent them to his main where you would harass his workers + you'd build an extractor for 50 minerals to have a building.
