Easy to say, but it was clear SaSe couldn't break into the main with his forces anyway, he had to hold CoCa from getting an expo so CoCa just mines everything off one base. And then hope for a draw - eventually CoCa would run out of minerals to make units or nyduses.

Yea he could have even left a sentry by the rocks, forcefield that and make coca take the loooong way around, since coca was usually chilling at the tower.
Fly warp prism to mineral line, to draw a few units away from the front, bust up the ramp, forcefield behind.
I wish to know, what Sase´s thought process was, sitting around and running around, when his opponent still had mining and he had no option to mine ever again.

More like easy to do! Just use the prism and snipe buildings/units off one at a time. He would have won easy. Immortals can hit spines without taking damage if you micro right

Spire would have been a huge error. Infestors was the absolute best move. There was not enough money for mutas but with infestors you are safe and have a resourse that constantly replenishes and you can kill from a safe distance.
