Well it was actually less vulnerable this game. If it was at main, it would have died during drop.

Man, Piano just did that fricken espionage style. I think I wanted to yell in Korean like the commentators when he dropped the infantry off just south of the nat. Very nicely done throughout.

it is in a more vulnerable position but also has more HP, and on this map it's quite easy to snipe that hatchery at natural if a couple mnm gets in a good position.

But dodging scouting could be the reason as well

yes true but that was more of a chance thing. imo it's way more vulnerable to siege tank fire out in the main especially on a map like rush hour where the nat is wide open...

sorry i meant out in the nat

I like how we all used three different terms to describe that drop by piano heh. Regardless that just changed the game from looking pretty good for zerg to just being "haha this is sad rape" for the terran. Sick move. What makes it even worse is the mutas were right next door as this was happening.

That doesn't really answer the question. Unless Zerg players expect the main to go down rather than the expansion, which I doubt.

So really, why do they do that?

What I've always heard is that zergs do that because the lair/hive has more hp and that position is vulnerable. I guess the thinking is that if you lose that hatch it doesn't matter whether it's your tech or not, you're probably going to lose.

Edit: That's in relation to this map alone, at least for the reasoning I mentioned.
