In the past T could keep Z much more in check and then push on 2/2 to sieze control of the center of the map and effectively deny large parts of the map while picking off expansions and choking out the zerg. Nowadays Z are free to tech/expand more aggressively early on which lets them hit broodlord/infestor faster and contest the middle of the map, where they can effectively reverse the roles of the races by sieging the Terran instead. Better understanding of infestor usage helps there too as people are much more careful with them now (as they are with most of their engagements in general) Yeah that's a good analysis of modern games on Antiga, agreed 100% | ||

Although i guess snipers build in game 2 isnt really an all in in the same sense. I kinda have to agree with your point here. :-) Polt just choosed the wrong builds here though :o | ||

I think that's more the case with maps like Whirlwind judging from recent games, Antiga's 4ths are pretty exposed but the first 3 bases are all pretty defendable. Antiga's ebb and flow is largely dictated by control of the centre and Zergs better creep spread is allowing them to do that better of late. | ||
