8:00-10:00min
7 Roaches in production for Symbol
Ling-runby for soO damages a few Drones, kills a single one
Both players start Lair, Symbol hides his Roaches and builds additional ones
soO does a Ling-runby and starts his own Roach-Warren as Symbol moves out with his Roaches
10:00-12:00min
soO starts lots of Lings and Banelings
Symbol moves up the ramp into the main with his Roaches but gets surrounded by Lings and Banelings
more Lings in production for soO, soO is able to defend
Symbol got the Drone lead with 42 to 34
Nydus Worm and 2 Evo Chambers started for Symbol
soO starts +1 missile attack and Roach Speed
12:00-14:00min
Nydus worms goes up unscouted in the main of soO!!!!
Lots of Roaches and Queens in the main of soO, Symbol focus fires the Roach Warren of soO
soO pulls all his Drones of the main and uses Roaches, Lings and Queens to fight Symbol
Transfuses on both sides, Symbol reinforces with more Roaches
soO uses everything he can to push Symbol back and for a second it looks like he is able to do so but more Roaches for Symbol pop out of the Nydus
14:00-16:00min
Symbol constantly produces more and more Roaches and soO can't keep up with his crippled economy
Symbol takes game 1!

Roach range is good, but not that good.

Probably because you get some free hits while trying to do so, zerg units don't have much range. In this case it would maybe have been worse.
But I'm no expert

It'd be hard to get enough roaches close to it, and the queens would transfuse it.

i think the position was already too cemented for symbol. i wanna say that soo actually wasn't able to micro past symbol's roaches, but maybe he could have sent a few roaches to the low ground and hit the nydus from behind?

It was in a corner so the only way to get it is to send an overlord and have all your roaches run all the way around the cliff to kill it. In that time, Symbol would have made another one, killed your roach warren, your lair, your queens and some drones.

He couldn't get in range of it because symbol's forces were blocking the path, if he tried to force himself in there around the units by the time he killed the nydus he would have 0 roaches left and that would just be gg with symbol using the roaches currently in the main + rallying more to the natural or even rebuilding the nydus.

Any ZvZ that isn't mutawars is pretty fun and intense to watch (well of late, to me). Not a true statement by any means!

Symbol spawns in the bottom left
soO spawns in the top left
|
Rofl. Symbol, show him how to hold and to kill.
|
Now it's symbol's turn :p
