srsly whoever voted yes, should be shot in the face


I voted yes - every zerg-player should watch this to see how incredibly stupid hatch first on steppes is. Zergs deserve to get all-in-ed this way as long as they don't adjust their super-greedy builds.

What's next, a toss complaining that he can't straight tech to templar/carrier after 15 nexus?

I don't know how people can still think that pool first is any better on steppes haven't we been over that the extra production and creep for the fast spine crawler is better than having one hatch and a pool.

It's the julyzerg build now despite every Zerg in the world using it for like 5 months before Reapers got nerfed?

Fruitdealer would have held that...

Why not sacrifice the hatchery? Nestea saw Rain pulling all SCVs
The rest is silence.

i think people are gonna have to start doing an in-base hatch first on steppes. not the best for economy but way easier to fend off this stuff with connected creep and more larvae

TSLRain makes me want to puke. This guy does scv marine all-in WAY too much. Against Toss... bunker scv marine all-in. Against Zerg... scv marine all-in most of the time. Against T? I don't think I've seen him play v t, but he'd still probably do an scv marine all-in. He's as annoying to watch as bitbybit.

people who keep talking about 'hatch first' really don't have a clue.. 2 rax constant marines dominates pool first so bad because there's only so few larve off 1 hatch untill after the first queen inject...the marines can just push you back non stop till that first inject finishes and you are in danger of being bunker blocked

not to mention you have to blindly make ~20 lings in that case so if terran just stops after 5 mariens and puts down a CC you are economically fucked

nestea fucked up his drone/ling control pretty bad there but hatch first is the only choice really...hency why steppes is auto loss vs terran, im sure nestea expected to lose set 2

Can a topzerg please explain why you wouldn't make 1 or 2 spines when you scout 2raxes? They will be close to finnished if you build them exactly when the hatch pops up.

Ok. So hatch first is better than pool first on steppes. Lesson learned! I think Zerg should just 6 pool on steppes.
