(twice.) and classic gg's... decent drops, but no tanks vs hydras... heh. Thing is, hydras works very very well against SKterran, because they snipe really easily shuttles and vessels, and are damn efficients against mm if they are supported by lurkers and in sufficient number. The only reason people don't play hydra in every zvt is dark swarm. | ||

Also Craton stop covering portions of the show with music videos. Do it during commercials if you really want to but some people like to see the whole broadcast. | ||

He had no map control and very little materiel. Terran can only be aggressive with drops without center control and Hydra got savvy to the dropping pretty quick. There were some minor control mistakes, but Classic's decision making was very sound. There aren't many Terrans who could have done a better job from such a build order deficit. The only mistake, maybe, was not trying to punish the fast third when he saw a late lair off of two hatch. Even then though, he would have to make a risky attack. He chose to play safe for a long game hoping to even it out later, which he couldn't really pull off. | ||

The only reason people don't play hydra in every zvt is dark swarm. hydra/lurker doesn't really become unstoppable against SKTerran until plague. It's what makes hydras better than cracklings in terms of killing off mnm armies. But it's a very, very expensive build, as usually you want to save your gas by using super-cheap cracklings. But if you're on gazillion bases as hydra did, then it's a much more viable build. It's also why hydra couldn't kill off classic so quickly, because the defiler mound/hive snipe left him without plague for so long. | ||
