Hello Scan. I have some questions about your optimized 3 Hatch opening.

1. I am C- iccup player. I still struggle with multitasking and muta micro, so I often lose later on even if I execute the BO perfectly. Do you suggest sticking to this mutalisk build or would it be better to practice mechanics using easier (lurker) openings - for example Effort's noob builds?

2. There are some differences beetwen your opening and pro zergs. For example you take 3rd hatch and gas on 14, pros make it on 13. Also u make 6 lings, pros ussually do 2. Are these differences important or is it just preference and being safe?

3. Should I remake mutalisks if my micro slip and I lose like 5-6 mutas to m&m? That's the biggest problem for me unfortunately. Sometimes I fail at micro, lose some mutas, lose map control and just slowly die from there.

Thanks in advance, and I am looking forward to some ZvP content.

No. People will consider as bragging. You can watch LIVE games on stream.

??? Lol... i uploaded any kind of games regardless of the victory... if someone refuses with a reason, just accept it. Dont be sarcastic. I used to have all those vs savior luxury and other legendary expros, but most of them were deleted because it was not good videos to advertise who i am. Why? I was young and all those noisy ass hyped tone comnentary is just annoying to listen and watch at the same time.

1) I would highly recommend you to practice macro with lurkers opening. You can practice muta micro against computers like muta micro maps. Please try to go for fast hive. like start your hive at 7 min++.

2) mine is more a textbook opening which is still useful against any terran's opening(factory opening/2rax/2ports). Those differences are matters/important if you are going mutalisk into 3 lurkers defending 3rd gas for fast hive.

3) It really depends. If you weren't able to take down 20++ mm with your 11 mutas # of lings, then no. just leave your rest of your mutalisks against any dropship after/before 1 vessel with tanks timing.

Scan i've won alot of games with ur TvZ Lecture Att+1 5 Rax 170430 timing, but when the scan finishes and i see hydra den, for lurkers what should i do? I tried to break his natural but there were too many sunkens and the lurkers finished, feels like i am behind and can not do anything when his hive finishes. Should i make 2 starport into dropship?

Hi Scan, I have a question about your TvP 4fact build as a Protoss player

My friend has replicated your build and I'm having a ton of trouble defending the ~7 minute push with 6 tanks. I generally open with the 21 Nexus build on Liquipedia. What's the proper response as a Protoss player if I scout the 1rax FE to be able to defend the 7 minute push? Is it possible to take a fast 3rd and still make enough units to defend, or should I be going for some 2 base tech build? I find that the standard ob timing with 21 Nexus is too slow to scout the # of factories before the Terran moves out. Should I cut goons to get the robo earlier?

Hey Scan have you ever won any progamer in TvT with bio switch for fun? Seems like it would be very fun. Sea won Boxer with Siege expand TvT into 4 rax mm.

But that was on 815 which features a gasless expansion. For a while I thought that Sea is Boxer in that game while watching it live.
