He looked confused after attack went wrong He was desperate to do damage because he suffered too much from the zealot harass regardless of the protoss being well prepared to defend. | ||

1) heRO notices BeSt likes gateway into expansion -> wants to kill it with 9 pool speedlings. 2) BeSt does 1 base play which nullifies the threat of 9 pool speedlings, and has the advantage 3) herO makes 2 hydralisks to stop the corsairs. If he were going lurkers, he would have made more. BeSt should have predicted mutalisks in advance. 4) BeSt should have noticed the hydralisk count, so shouldn't have gone for robotics bay. Going for the natural was the right choice. 5) BeSt goes for speed zealots, which is okay against 2 base 3 hatchery play, but not against fast tech 2 hatchery play. 6) BeSt goes for the rush anyways, but herO doesn't see the speed zealots coming and loses tons of drones, which shouldn't happen considering he went for 2 hatchery play which is already low on drone count. 7) BeSt secures his natural and wins the game. It seems neither play had a clear idea what was going on, and BeSt came out on top of this clown fiesta (which may be what he was aiming for, rather than a pre-planned build that had every variable in mind). | ||

I actualy believe we have to study best odd build because it puts the zerg in such an odd spot. It's a risky build, but it worked out pretty well. He placed hero in a low eco game situation, then he relied on his amazing macro skills to win the game. After the first push on one base, hero add to spend larvas on drones again. so hero spent money on pretty useless muta tech, then had to rebuild economy. Meanwhile, best takes second base and becomes totaly equal or even ahead on the eco, and it's just a matter of time before he starts producing a massive army. With this tech, the protoss is always kind of equal on the eco, and still gets very quick tech while being the thread in the early game. We have to study this more in details, because i think that best put a lot of thoughts into this build. I have not heard any relevant analysis so far on any of the streams. | ||
