Needed ghosts, just a pair of ghosts with enough emp could have at least emptied the queens of energy. But especially in the first "big" battle if you have unscouted ghosts you can surprise butseks and carpet the whole infestor ball and just win right here. Leenock had a fews overseers. It is risky because Leenock had his BLs slightly in front of his infestors. So ghosts might not have gotten in range for EMP, it is a big risk for pretty expensive units.
But still a lot better than ravens imo. throwing in an academy is free when you have as much economy as Taeja had, just put an academy, make 3 or 4 ghosts in anticipation. Send them one by one, even if they get fungaled it's nearly worth it as fungaling a single unit isn't very efficient and you can still perhaps throw an emp. I dunno it seems a lot better than making ravens and researching seeka missile.

Leenock is doing the "If Taeja were protoss, this would kill him" build.

They are playing WOL. I don't think GSL will switch to HOTS until the end of this years planned season (please do say if I'm wrong though :D)
They've already said they'll switch when HotS comes out. It being in Beta is not 'out'.
They also said they won't do it midseason of course.

wow MC massive tweet, translate please!

he's just playing with taeja before going hive tech

What the hell is Leenock doing... roaches are garbage against bio...
|
I think you need infestors for this style to be actually effective. I've seen Stephano go roach/ling ZvT but he had infestors and a slight lead.
