I'm pretty sure the Drones weren't attacking. He was just trying to stop the Lings from getting a full surround on the Hatch, not that there were actually enough to do that.

If EffOrt can maintain his lower Drone count consistently, his army will be larger than Stephano's, thus have better engagements with Roach/Hydra/Infestor. Problem is, Stephano's bank is larger, so his army will have the better remax capability than EffOrt.

It looked like he was attacking. Looked like he meant to a-move his drones to try to get the drones but accidentally hit his hatch.

As for surface area, it only works when you can completely surround it (Zerglings were already attacking).

Seems like misclick a-move.

couple of Mutas are always nice even if they don't do eco damage, you get almost all the ovis and deny alot of vision. Hope Stephano won't lose, he had a small advantage all game long.

And drones will turn into free supply combat units once Stephano is maxed with a bank. So being low on drones is pretty bad and you have to attack into an equal army with spine and spore support. Of course having more drones opens you to a timing. But not really if you have them all game long.

He wasn't attacking it. He was surrounding it to reduce the surface area/block the hatchery so the lings couldn't get a full surround.

Normally I turn the stream off once I see Brood Lords, but since this is a Stephano ZvZ, my timing couldn't be better

Yeah, they were definitely attacking, but it's not like the hatch would have lived otherwise

Hmm, effort dropping roaches before he really needed to, I think he was trying to mindgame stefano into believing that his broods are coming sooner then they actually are.

Stephano's high Drone count is really paying off right now, his bank is huge.

I feel like if it's a long drawn out fight Stephano wins because of the bank. If the fight last only 5 seconds the Effort will win because he has less drones.
