I've seen Bisu doing corsair/reaver on ladder

and I was a bit suprised. What do you think, he've done this because he was thinking that he's opponent won't be strong, or there's a chance of some change in meta?

Corsair/Reaver was always viable in PvZ ?

Lots of sair/reaver in official games. Not standard, but still viable

Depends on the map. It was practically standard on Andromeda for some time, or at the very least it was the preferred choice for many top players. I can easily see Arcadia II having the same meta due to the structure of it (3 bases with 1 choke, island expos).

Is it just me or the ZvT meta hasn't changed since sAviOr (3 hat muta)?

It's just you. 3 Hatch Muta is still used frequently but to make it sound like the meta has stagnated is incorrect.

Why has 2 hatch muta fallen so massively out of the meta? Besides maps, does the 4 rax style just beat it down too hard?

I'm newb but I think it's because Zerg needs economy in ZvT and 2hatch is just too low economy.

It is probably a map thing. The most popular maps are macro maps with easy expansions, so a macro style is better. On Uzi Sara for example, I could see 2 hatch muta being much more popular due to the awkward area between natural and main.

Are there any custom maps to practice multitasking shuttles and reavers?

EDIT: Also can reavers work in each matchup?

Reavers have a place in each match-up; the use of them depends on:

1. Build preference
2. Timing of their use
3. Maps
4. Personal preference

In PvT they lose effectiveness after the early game.

In PvZ on most maps they are best in the late-game, or in combination with Corsair on maps like Andromeda and Arcadia II (lol). They can be used earlier as seen in Bisu vs. Hero (might have been Effort) on FS IIRC.

In PvP they are more or less staple for expanding/aggressive mid-game/general mid-game combat in pre-Templar tech situations. Very dependent on what the build interactions have been up until that point.

That's my general overview, I think it's mostly correct.

I have one question regarding Outsider. I just noticed, while watching Last's stream that there is a weird space that even zergling can't pass? Screenshoot below. Is this a bug, or a common knowledge?

Edit : He just put the SCV on the right side of building factory and zergling could only attack barracks. They won't move anywhere close to the Marine.

dunno about common knowledge, but barrack top right corner vs factory bottom left corner always blocks lings. It's even mentioned in the liquipedia page about terran walls! http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/Walling_as_Terran

After all these years people can still learn.

Never played terran and wasn't aware of it. Didn't encounter that before.

Thanks for letting know

No scarabs are melee so they deal full damage under swarm. It can help reavers though
