Well that speed upgrade is a lot faster, so you can find a faster timing without +1. Also, that forge seemed to be put down only after the lings busted the door, for cannons, but I'm not sure. Replay review didnt show that either. Or maybe it was a +1 build, I dont know. | ||

Effort has regained his confidence. And the game vs Fantasy was actually also pretty good | ||

Kal can't make one gate play with a super fast +1 and allow Effort to scout this. | ||

Do you mean "due to the fact effort didnt get a den" I gotta say if I kill your entire base then you killing some ovs isnt that dramatic anyways | ||

Its pretty useless because the timing is delayed so much that the zerg can get mutas at that point and steam roll the zeals. Kal''s build is all in, and it relies on the zerg making too much defence vs Dts/sairs/reavers by guessing wrong, then zerg gets steamrolled by extremely quick speedlots. | ||

I believe that's wrong, the forge came way later. Also he had 3 gates going before he started his forge either way. +1 finished really really late. Therefore I find this build very strange. | ||

If they do something aggressive and you didn't cancel your third base for whatever reason, you need to make a lot of Zerglings because you can't get enough sunkens to defend both bases. 11 drones is more than enough to support overlords and Zerglings off 3 hatcheries, and after the immediate threat is gone you can get some more drones and tech. ?

He wouldn't be able to defend both his nat and his 3rd too. It seems like you're just trying to theorycraft without having any idea on what Zerg has to do vs 1 base protoss if they took a third base. He couldn't get any more drones without dying right away, that's not an allin, he made as many as he needed to. Immediately after the Zealot attack wasn't an immediate threat, he made like 5 drones and mutas, which was more than enough to put him in the winning position. | ||

You have to guess multiple times early on in the game and getting a single one wrong means you lose. | ||
