It was very calculated and on this particular map m&m are bound to beat 1 fact and 1 port...
THIS WAS NOT CHEESE By all standard definations of cheese this was a cheese. He cut all economic capablity for 1 do or die attack. If oov went 2 fact vulture it was an auto-loss. It wasn't cheese as in bbs or proxy, it was a unit specific surprises timming attack. How often do you see terran build 10 scv tvt and then stop for the entire game? You're forgetting the map this was played on; indeed boxer lost his scvs, but he could have avoided that with just 3 marines... Done on most other maps this would be cheese, but on Requiem... a map where the initial push is 70% of the game; its not. This is not the only time Boxer has used m&m in tvt. In a recent game, he used m&m to contain a terran on a 2 player map and ended up winning in mid to late-game.
I'm sorry but you are very wrong. Just because boxer has used all varieties of cheese builds more then once doesn't make them not cheese. I didn't mean he lost his scv to a wraith. He only made 8-9 all game anyway.

Well, rA never lost a PvZ on either Guillotine or Neo, pioneering the whole 'double nexus' deal. Then again, he was 14-1 combined overall on the maps anyhow and that was at his peak of dominance.
The only thing I can really compare that to is Jaedong's 16-2 Katrina record, which was supposed to be terrible for Zerg.
Anyhow, tangent completed... haha

drop gets raped by manlots and manrobes

I had moderate success with PvZ despite my PvZ being my worst matchup by far (barring understanding, results, and confidence - basically everything). I really don't know what I cooked up but sometimes it worked 
The only help is that Zergs didn't know overpool, so they either 12hatched into the choke or 9-pooled. You can't really 12-hatch to the expo, maybe that's what helps P a bit.
So weird watching that they didn't know how to carpet bomb drops, etc

wow look at that hydra line
|
And indeed Guillotine was Nal_rA's map 
|
If people looked at this game I can see why it took a while for the protoss FE build to get popular.

Hydras behind mineral line, that's a nice move
