Because you never know how many speedlings zergs have and risk the hellions dying for nothing.

sometimes you gotta take risks, he lost the hellions anyways.

for a different reason, he was doing a push trying to take down third with rauder, hellion, banshee.

he had 10 hellions, why try and kill off the third? He could have slaughtered the economy with that force, engaging spines/queens with hellions was silly.

i don't even know how to respond to this.

Start with explaining how a force that was 80% hellions was meant to kill a third base.

because you dont use hellions to kill a building, but the marauders and banshees. the hellions kill the zerglings.....

Obviously, and he only had what 1-2 marauders and two banshees? His army had nothing prepared to kill spines/spores/queens, it was entirely geared around killing lings/banes/drones. He killed the ling/banes but then he engaged the queens/static d, instead of going for drones.

A billion hellions definitely/2 banshees/2 marauders > 4 queens, a morphing spine, some lings and a few banes. Imperfect micro and huge production by Lucky (one wave of injections from 4 hatcheries) is what let him hold. You're underrating that timing; it very nearly killed Lucky.

The timing works pretty well for me, especially since zergs at the masters level don't nearly have lucky's macro.

Why send a Terran vs a Zerg? Especially Bomber who isn't very great at the match-up. Might as well be giving them a free win
Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where, when facing a SlayerS terran, completing a hatchery would cause a medivac and 8 marines to randomly spawn nearby and attack it.

dunno why you are so offended. All in is a common term and all ins are used very often.

All in is just a term for a very strong timing attack that, if it fails, you are pretty far behind.

Maxing out as fast as possible on ling bane muta on 3 base and a moving up a ramp into siege tanks is pretty dam all in lol.

What happens if there were more tanks, or thors, or the T split well and crushed Z's army?

I just entirely disagree with how he executed the attack, that army is great for killing econ but one spine+queen probably beats the 8 hellions he had left, I think if he just went straight for drones he would have had more success (he couldn't have possibly had less success). Regardless it's in the past now, I just go back to my original point, I don't understand why you'd make 10 hellions and not try and go for the economy.

Sure, we can put it that way too.

Bomber has a pretty good late game, let's see if he can actually get to that point though.

I was wondering what the transition is if you come up against the increasingly common roach openers? Queen/roach on a third seems bulletproof against it.

Edit: now that I think about it, you could probably just turn it into a harassment and go after drones, abusing the immobility of roach/queen. Seems like a really good opener ^_^
