Build a few BCs. Force Zerg to spawn scourges. Less gas for units like ultralisk or defiler. That's why hero was throwing zerglings all over the map. But if Zerg doesn't get scourge, you rape with BCs. | ||

in hindsight, cattlebruisers were the only logical alternative after the window to switch to mech closed and bio just wasn't doing it | ||

I thought BCs were completely idiotic when I saw them. | ||

If you have 4-5 or more gas as zerg it doesn't matter anymore. The gas costs to kill a battle cruiser with scourges are the same costs as for the battle cruiser. Honestly, the gas hero invested into scourges would have amounted in about 3 ultras, that's not a lot... I think the more important fact about this game was that Sea built a massive amount of firebats when hero was short on gas. | ||

I know the 6 is a small base land wise, but would spores be possible considering the high amount of minerals hero had? | ||

I think the more important fact about this game was that Sea built a massive amount of firebats when hero was short on gas. Define "more important". It's certainly easy to use firebats to help secure a victory. But I don't think they were the turning point. There's a reason hero was basically forced into spawning zerglings only, without much variation in units. There's a reason, then, that the firebats helped so much. I think the BCs were a turning point, because up until then the bio play was doing damage, but wasn't working completely. hero had lost 6:00, rebuilt, and then held. Then he lost it to BCs. And then soon after he lost 12:00, too. His aggressiveness lost its momentum, and starved on gas, was basically inclined to build mostly zerglings. By both denying hero a fourth gas and then forcing him to spend necessary gas on scourges, Sea ensured the presence of less ultralisks/defilers/lurkers. Which meant more zerglings. Which meant that firebats looked like hot shit.

Spores would be possible, but how viable they are is another story. Especially considering that Sea had parked a sieged tank on the other side of the wall. | ||

I don't have any experience with this but I don't think it would have been a good idea. First of siege tanks are able to siege a big area of the 6 so that shrinks the area to build spores by a lot. He had 2 Battlecruisers and you need 3-4 spores firing simultaniously at them to win. I don't think it's possible to build so many spore there. And even if, the battlecruisers only have one range less than spores so you can always approach from one side and kill off the spores. That's not even including yamatos. And I honestly don't know if hero really had that much minerals. I assume he had just not enough gas but an appropiate amount of minerals. @feckless: Sorry, I'll come to you later, I'm running out of time. | ||
