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

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?

SaSe has a sick amount of fans in China as well I think, he stayed there for some time when he played wc3 iirc

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.

You can have them live indefinitely unrooted even without creep.

i always thought grubby baceraced so much in Wc3 cause of raiders and pillage. but he still seems to like it

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.
