I even saw demuslim describe the rationale behind a build like this many months ago on his stream. He even showed how to deal with moderate amounts of roaches, and pick them of slowly, and why you don't get blueflame early, etc. It is just not a very common strategy.

nice build by demuslim, but he should have transitioned into air mech, and not thors. Infestor eggs tank to good against pure factory, if the tanks can't attack them.

Well, that was really well done by Demu...:p
|
Good handling by Recco, impressed.
|
why fight with hellions vs roaches outside the siegetank range ? .. easy win with better micro  gogo devil !

Infestors man. What do you do. Happens, come on Demu with bio-tank next.

Demuslims face at the end there. Sad Terran.

Yeah airmech would be good especially against a roach heavy composition.

I hate watching Zerg now.
I main Zerg - masters NA, but I can't stand to play Zerg after the patch.
We were in a perfect spot pre-patch. Now it's just way too easy to win ZvT.

You don't need blue flame with this build. When you're getting a huge amount of hellions you're going to cook light units at an insane rate with regular flame. You're troubles are going to be with queens crawlers banes and roaches which are better dealt with by tons of regular hellions.

You make ghost watch Lucifron and see how its done

If DeMuslim had hid the Hellions at the start of the game, there wouldnt have been any Roaches, that should have been a build order win, but he fluffed it exposing his game plan too early
|
wow brilliant play by JRecco...great to see Demu pegged back...cmon Jrecco bring it home on the worst balanced map of Shakuras Plateau
|
How is Demu supposed to transition Skymech with 3 reactors already built?
|
I think that kind of doom army absolutely requires support units. A raven just for detection to counter burrow and clear creep during the push?
|
One of the problems with mech is that zergs have learnt to use infesters to slow down the push. They will fungal your hellions which slows down the mech army. The counter is tanks but you need to siege and the zerg just moves back and force you to unsiege which slows down the push a lot.

Yeah he should totally add 5-6 starports and some armories and add some more air upgrades. Perhpas he could spice it up with ghosts with both upgrades out of 3-4 tech labbed barracks. I'm just unsure whether you should maybe add 3-4 more starports so you can upgrade ravens+medivacs at the same time.

Demuslim's main mistake that game was having his army out of position. He had a bunch of tanks and factories rallied to his opponents tower and recco just sidestepped it and pretty much crippled a weakneded demu with that roach counter.
That's it. The build was fine, realy interesting. Recco just saw the hole in demuslims positioning and killed him for it.
