It's hard to say whether Taeja thought the double roach warren was a mistake or not, because we don't know if he saw them both researching.

i think he saw them both researching. he started 2 bunkers and a missle turret immediately after the scan

What? There's a unit called an Ultralisk, and since the 4th and 5th are easy for Zerg, you make many of them.


Ultralisks aren't very good compared to brood-lords. An ultralisk based army will get destroyed by a good maxed Terran army. Infestor/Brood/Queen is really the only composition that zerg can engage a maxed terran army with. Any map that doesn't allow that due to being so huge won't be a good Zerg map.

OMG, so a flat map is a Terran map instead of zerg map? No idea why all the protoss and terran block their main/expansion and engage in choke points, seems they are so fucking stupid.

broods > ultras, but in general since the map is so large it naturally favors zerg anyway


Broods dont favour Ultralisks on WW because the Terran will drop all over the Zerg and they have zero mobility with Broods.

I really want Leenock to win the series so that we get to know wtf that build was all about in the interview by Artosis.


He probably looked at Taejas replays and saw a lot of Mech on the map so decided to blindcounter it. It was a cheesy build that could have worked. Leenock wouldn't have gone for it if he didn't think it would have worked. He obviously wants to win so going for builds he dont think will win would be stupid.


I have never seen Taeja gone mech on Whirlwind.


I don't think too many will go mech on WW due to the size. Even Mvp plays bio I think.

He made a turret at his front when he scanned so he knew he was going for both upgrades to burrow move.

Thanks for the heads up! Do you know the results so far? It seems as though it's 2-1 to T8 with Fantasy just pulling a game back for skt1.

I dunno, he obviously had a plan with the build. But Taeja did an awesome gamewinning scan pretty much.

Exactly why I want Leenock interview. No one is 100% sure what that build was about except Leenock himself.

For god sake, gold league noobs stop ranting please. What leenock intended to do is burrow speed timing,if taeja didn't scan at the perfect time. burrowed in roaches can turn terran's base upside down

Large maps don't favor zerg. The only reason this became such a common idea is because of how hard of a time zerg used to have holding timings/all-ins which big maps are obviously big for. Now that pretty much every TvZ is a macro game big maps are bad for zerg.
