1.- the attack timming 5:50 in this one, 6:20 in a standard 973 Hydra Bust 2.- Soulkey had Lair tech. In a stadard Hydra bust you don't have Lair tech so isn't an -all in- per se | ||

The lair was simply made to throw off the Protoss and try to force a Stargate due to the scouting probe. | ||

Yes, the lair tech had this objective too but actually is necessary because corsair tech, otherwise the protoss can stay his base back his cannons and go out with 6 sairs +1 and Dt´s . For my point of wiev Lair in this case make this BO more flexible Cheeers | ||

You are making non-stop hydras, there is no time/money to make Spire against Corsairs if you want to bust the natural because you need high amount of Hydras... If they can't make it you just die due to low eco. IMO as well, Lair was made to just trick the Protoss. | ||

Zerg usually go 3hatch hydra without Lair and they have 2 options: 1) Go all-in 2) Apply pressure forcing protoss to create a lot of canons and then proceed into a relatively standard game But Zerg have always had the option of going for 3hatch hydra with Lair tech... They have more options for different all-ins if they do. In this case, it looks like Soulkey mostly just got the Lair to fool Tyson into thinking there wouldn't be an early Hydralisk Den, but he got overlord speed too near the end so he probably had something prepared if Tyson had reacted in time. Soulkey could've just as easily could've went for slow overlord drop though and did elevator trick after forcing canons. He tried that against Bisu and it almost worked but it didn't because... well, it was Bisu. Pretty sure Shine has done a lot of different cheeses with 3hatch hydra on Lair tech. | ||

This isn't 'new' at all... why did your post start with this? the rest was perfectly fine without that line. clearly OP knows less about broodwar than other posters - is that against the rules of this forum, or somehow an outrage to you? do you have to have 15+ yrs of metagame knowledge to post here? i have never played BW competitively, but like many of you i played as a child, love the game, and i like to read about the scene. i like to read these threads because the discourse about builds and strategy is really interesting. 10 other people posted similar stuff to what you said and none of them tried to make the OP feel low for asking | ||

Just wanted to share some additional content. Quotes from soulkey's interview (after advancing): -This felt like a pc bang preliminaries -Against Guemchi, I didn't initially plan to go all-in, but I got a feel during the game that it'd be over if I went all-in. My original build was not to go all-in. Once I saw guemchi's game-play/condition, I got the confirmation that it'd be over if I went all-in. I usually watch Zeus (old gamer and ex-sparkyz coach)' commentary and here are some of his comments: 04:15]: Hydra den went up fast. This gives zerg 3 choices: lair hydra macro build, fast drop, or ling+lurker bust. There is a lot the zerg can do. [04:44]: from lair hydra, you can 5 hatch macro, hydra drop, or ling+lurk bust. it seems unexpected that soulkey is going offensive instead of defensive [05:34]: It seems like this is a lair hydra macro. [05:52]: As toss, you can't build too many cannons b/c you won't be able to build gates for macro. you gotta optimize how many cannons to build [06:07] But it seems like he needs to build a lot of cannons. There are a lot of z units coming [06:11] This z build is to clear the entrance buildings with hydras then bust {06:14]: Go build forge at the front, so the z units can't come close! [06:18]: P is busted [06:23]: P saw more hydras and lings keep coming. He should've sim-citied more and had probes waiting at the front. I wonder why Tyson didn't do any of those. [06:42/gg]: This did have a fake vibe, but Tyson saw it. He saw the units keep coming out with sairs and thus, should've prepared earlier | ||
