Even if Grubby loses to Nerchio now, he will still play tiebrakers for the last spot to China since Stephano is directly seeded. Right?!

Yup
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I don't understand why that is seen as such a bad blunder by Ret. Grubby had the entire map, and he cleared all the corners of the map pretty much so there was no way Ret had any drones there. The only drones Ret had were with his army and he had no creep at all to build any other buildings than try to build a hatch to the closest place where there is room for the hatch which was at the 3rd of Grubby at that moment of time. Maybe you could argue that he should have put down a hatch in Grubby's main below his army when he destroyed Grubby's buildings there to make space, but he had nowhere else to put them really.


maybe build like 8 hatcheries imo, he couldnt use those drone for anything else useful


Your meant to march spore crawlers with your broodlord army in those situations. They don't lose health off creep and are scoring.

See Curious vs MC GSL this season.

They dont? I've always assumed that Z just spew creep under the army to prevent them from loosing health?


Ret couldn't spew creep - you only do that when you have a Lair and he had no Lair

It would have been incredibly simple for him to have had a few spores mixed into his army...was an ENORMOUS blunder by Ret.


Well sure that would be the best solution, but as people pointed out, he had no evo chambers left for a while. Thinking 100% crystal clear isn't really easy in that situation either. Don't spores lose health offcreep anyway, which again brings the problem of Ret having to hunt down Grubby's bases with his army?

I wonder if Grubby actually knew that this were the last zerg structures or if it happened by accident?

He sent zealots to every corner so probably yes also if rets army came he probably could have just backed up he also had 3 expos with probes and if the battle was kind of an eaven trade then grubby was still able to replenish enough to win.

I still remember the video where he had to climb out of a window to escape a throng of Chinese people only to be met on the outside by another legion. Awesome stuff. :D

Not to mention the police escorts he gets! :D

They have regen when unrooted which counteracts the health loss. You can have them live indefinitely unrooted even without creep.

Surprised that the casters didn't notice what grubby was up to with all of his zealots running around the map. Guess they were just too busy anticipating the epic final battle between the carriers/mothership and the corrupters/infestors. Really wish we could have seen that actually happen.

Maybe ret sacrificed himself for esports, defeat himself to ensure that grubby can get to China.
