So you would only lose the ressources spent on this tech. Also the time you build the raven, you cannot build medivacs, which are really important, if you lose medivacs like Fenix did in this game  The point is to keep the mutas out of battle. If a zerg is running from HSM, they are not defending a hatchery from a marine push. If a zerg makes a single micro mistake, their ball takes 100 damage, etc. It's not too reliable maybe, but we never see it tried :o | ||

If the "style" is so common you would think people can stop it, but we all know that's easier said than done. All in all, it's more about game sense and basic macro/micro fundamentals that does the trick. | ||

He stayed on Lair tech for a long time and massed mutas with constant harass. There are a few differences between them but for the most part they were both very lair/muta centric. | ||

So I agree, maybe it would have been worth a try, though Fenix was dead already. | ||
