It is when you run Ultraling (terrible units against Mech, you just need a lot of stuff to beat mech).
Lings and ultras get eaten alive by vultures, spider mines and fully upgraded tank lines. Ultraling is the worst possible combo pretty much besides Lurkers against mech.

effort played so stubborn too, continually trying guardians that just got irradiated ... you'd think after the first time or two he'd learn, but he made guardians three times. Then late game he stayed with ultraling forever, doing the same kind of shit the whole time. What happened to muta hydra in response to mech?

what is zerg supposed to do against that? Even effort's gosu defiler usage + drops didn't seem to do much.


The thing is those ultra drops on the tanks were completely unsupported, so Effort was basically trading one ultra for one tank. You want to use drops along with a big attack/swarms but that didn't really happen. Obviously taking on mech is hard for Zerg but this was really inferior to Zero's play against Flash.

I doubt effort would make anything more than defiler/ling even if he had the money...
but yeah you are right

I see the importantce of turrents in mech tvz. Light could have won more convinigingly if he put turrents in the middle of the map.

Cool game, it pains me to see this many terrans advance (and even root for them), but the zergs I don't like or the terrans I do like keep playing... (Calm, effort, Sea)
I can't sing and I can't dance, but still I know how to clap my hands.

Didn't Effort go Guardians to combat the earlier marine pressure put on by Light. Specifically the denial of 9 expo and then stall/halt tank, mnm vessel push before consume is complete?
Doing it 3 times was too much granted, but the 1st time when he was parked at the natural seemed a reasonable decision.

Effort didn't play optimally but it kind of annoys me when people just quote day9's advice from over a year ago (mech play hasn't evolved at all since then, right?) and suggest that progamers have no clue what they are doing.

Hydra/Muta is a great way to battle Mech when you have a big econ advantage. Which effort never had. Per cost, fully upgraded Goliath/Tank will destroy Hydra/Muta.

Effort had to get tricky to stay in the game.
