Thought Flash was gonna die to the lings. I'm watching a slideshow here, and it looked so grim, with lings in his base, almost no units and a stream of reinforcements coming across the map. Once he held and stabilized Effort didn't stand a chance though.

tbh it was kind of bad of Effort to have not a single muta to try and snipe the 4-5 1hp vessels after the first plague. He was going for this strategy anyways

Agreed, he really needed to snipe some vessels.

its very very very late to get those ultras. The best route was to go hydras at that timing so at least plague + hydras can fend off vessel heavy army.

no, what I meant is that at this stage of the game he should have go for lings+lurkers+scourges + swarm and put all his gas resources in the lurkers+scourges, while minerals into lings which gives him way better army composition to deal with m&ms and he would have enough gas for scourges to snipe vesseles, putting his resources into 1/1 (2/2 on the way) hydras was a waste for effort

I didn't realize that was a full all in. I thought he just made a lot more lings than usual to do damage. I guess he didn't really get many SCVs or vultures and lost a lot of lings.

GG. I feel like Effort had that game but made a few costly blunders. He should have either: A. Dropped down a super early 3rd as he was doing damage with his speedlings, or B. Gone all in hydras or something and tried to kill Flash then. Big mistake letting a Terran re-power off 2 CCs.

Also I think if he had just sacrificed his 4th and defended the ramp to his 3rd he would have been ok.

The ling opening was great, it was the botched muta attack that made him fall back again...

the worker count for both players after the ling atack was probably even, given how many scvs effort killed.

well won game by flash

1) Mass ling rush vs 1-1-1 killed Flash
2) 2 rax all-in killed Effort even though it was scouted
3) Mass ling rush vs fast gas -> factory did some damage but failed, from there Effort was behind and Flash won with m&m + vessels with great vessel play.

Two very quick games, first game Flash loses to early speed lings, second game effort looses to a 2rax pushout.

Third game, Effort goes 3hatch before pool then masses lings with speed and burrow, lots of sheenanigans, turns into macro game but efforts economy isn't that great, and he throws all his mutas away, Flash masses science vessels and kills effort who can't keep up with replacing his units he loses to irradiate. very good game tho

no no. It's hard to snipe with scourages. Many zergs have been going hydra lurker spore plague route vs SK lately.
