Everytime the camera catches Mvp he never seems happy/amused anymore. Makes me cry inside.

ragnarok needed a quicker 3/3 with some AOE against the bio (either infestors or ultras) - he had the vipers but the 3/3 bio army with a high medivac count with the widow mines make it difficult to fight the bio head on

Ragnarok lost all his hydras to burrowed mines and then the den before the vipers could get enough energy to drop more clouds.

I don't think the mines are what won if for him, I think it was the medivacs. i feel like ragnarok should have focused the medivacs instead of attacking the army for some of the engagements.

Is the gas usage such that the zerg has to choose between vipers and infestors? It seems like a few infestors might've been useful there.

Entertaining game though!
Amateurish. Nearsighted. A waste of my time and everyone else's.

7 widow mines do wonders. With crackvac harras all over your base.

Roach/hydra seems to get weaker and weaker the longer the game goes on vs that unit comp of Terran. At that point it really seemed like Ragnarok needed ultras.


Conversely the good thing about the comp Ganzi went for is that it's probably the best set up you can possibly have for megaultralisks.

With Ragnarok going Viper I think he should have tried yank some medivacs back into the hydras so Ganzi lost some of his staying power. The big benefit of tankless play is that Vipers don't fuck you =p

Finally someone shows a glimpse of how Widow Mines can be abused. Now until someone takes out an entire tier 3 army by rushing in with 30 mines.

It was 3/3 Upgrades for Ganzi vs 2/2. That's where the massive turn around happened. Plus the medivac count. Made a massive difference.

I don't get why Ragnarok doesn't build at least some splash damage vs bio play.

One of the reasons he's gonna remain a mediocre zerg player...

He got off 3-4 massive widow mine hits on all of the hydras of ragnoarok and got them into red hp.

the mine didn't do shit in that engagement where Ganzi turned/determine the battle. He simply reached a medivac breaking point where it was healing his units very fast and takes too long for zerg to break it down.

As zerg you need aoe or tech up to t3 before medivacs get too high

Ragnarok should just have upgraded roach saddle in that situation.
