He had to know that his lurkers would be way to slow to ever save the 3rd from Flash of all people. I think the early pool was supposed to do more than minor damage to Flash's supply depot. After that he made the quick third base to try to get back into the game, but obviously Flash's timing is way too good to let that go, and he obviously guessed it was there after scouting how little Hydra had in his base. | ||

The only matchup where Zerg dont (try to) get an early 3rd is mirror, where its either 1 or 2 base play most of the time. vP: Zerg almost always get a very early 3rd (double expand off Overpool seems to be the most common variation nowadays). vT: Zerg will try to get a 3rd while keeping T busy at home w Muta... Holding that 3rd is the challenge though, probably the most key point in early game TvZ as far as i know. | ||
