Doesn't matter at this point


You are supposed to take advantage of the fact that Terran mech's low mobility.

Anyways Zero proved what Flash did in their previous game was no easy thing to do.

Good game from Zero. Fantasy did some good defense, and one good vulture run by, but he spent too long holed up by mutas and econ was just screwed after.

Looks like fantasy didn't learn from Sea's slaughtering a couple of days ago with his bio into mech match.

I wonder how much Zero practices this map due to the 2500 gas he had at one point.

Argh, he should've taken the centre left expansion. He could've cut the distance in half and took 2 expansions with it. Left him way too open taking the expansions along the edge of the map.

Zero is a baller though.

I don't think Fantasy has the mechanical skill to beat ZerO the way FlaSh did

It's more like this is why you don't expand upwards on this map and instead should expand toward 3 or 9.

Z can't flank and turrets stop drops etc so easily.

eh I think it could have worked, theoretically it's a much easier four gas and from there he could have crawled down towards the main. It doesn't pressure ZerO at all though and fantasy did not do a good enough or quick enough job setting up his turtle

That was because of the vults which massacred his drones. It's always ok to bank gas as Zerg anyway, he of course ended up using all of it very shortly after.

And thus bio into mech joins the ranks of 8 rax overlord snipe, 5 rax, 14cc, and other TvZ builds deemed unbeatable for a week by the crybaby zergs of TL.

they are still terrible. The difference is that a player like Light uses his initial MM force to get map control, mines the shit out of the map and gets his expansions up.

Fantasy didn't. When you're facing 30 tanks backed up by mines Ultras are fucking terrible.

Because if all your stuff is one place so is his... The more fronts you can attack on the stronger your play

A "fake" drop would've been much more effective (something I wish more zergs would try) forcing Terran to pull some tanks to his main, followed by an allout attack on Fantasy 3rd. Fantasy really didn't have many units at his 3rd base, Zero could've easily overwhelmed him and ended the game right there.

Its massing so much gas that allowed him to replenish his forces so quickly in order to overwhelm fantasy. He tried the same thing against Flash, but Flash's D was just ridiculous.

Fantasy mined it up pretty well. Zero made it a priority to sweep them up though.

Plus, it's much easier said than done to make some kind of unbreakable defense like Flash did against Zero when dark swarm and 'lings are involved..

Also, I don't think that game proves anything regarding the lategame mech imbalance. Zero had the advantage of being able to skip lurkers and tech straight to ultras (a unit that works against both bio and mech). One of the big problems with the lategame mech transition is that by then, zerg has invested a lot in lurkers.
