The SHs must have been a troll with his team mate though? I mean... he just barely defended. Imagine mutalisks or any other unit for those resources. Would have rolled over him easily.

Well, maybe a little, I believe Snute really is trying to make swarm hosts work. It's hard to say whether mutas would have been better, Mana had a lot of stalkers and a few archons, but mutas would certainly be the safer choice 95% of the time. But I do believe that swarm hosts on that map (King Sejong), is somewhat viable? I mean, the natural is sooooo open to swarmhost waves. Mutas can be warded away by a few cannons and stalkers in the natural, 20 locusts are going to do a lot of damage no matter how many cannons there are. It pretty much forced Mana to try to kill him ASAP (which is always the correct choice, SH's are horrible defensive units). Luckily, Ravagers are pretty good defensively, which is why Snute didn't just die, as he made a LOT. It seemed like he had it thought out pretty well. I will say, I don't agree with the number of swarm hosts he got though. I think 15 (or how many he got?) is too many, 8-9 will kill a probeline or a nexus just as well as 15 will, and your defense isn't compromised to the same degree, but I'm not entirely sure what the magic number of swarm hosts is. But Snute made it work

I'm just happy that someone is experimenting with swarm hosts, maybe we will even see a swarm host nydus at some point in a LOTV professional game? I can only dream

Just wanted to mention that Snute's casting and interviews have been absolutely excellent this weekend. They seem so sincere, and I love it, so thanks Snute. Whenever you're on on the couch or in the booth you've made the tournament incredibly fun to watch.

Reclaim the throne of HSC; This is your tournament. Keep fighting. :D

Too bad, I was pretty happy at the idea of seeing Snute against Scarlett but good job nonetheless, what an impressive zvt. (even if in term of style, I preferred a bit the MLB of Scarlett :p )

Haven't done my research, but it's starting to look like snute is catching up to naniwa as 2nd best foreigner.

Nope you haven't done your research. Snute has been better than naniwa since the release of lotv.
