I think he would've held the push better if the Terran rally distance were longer. terran can retreat through the rock chokepoint at the pocket base pretty comfortably, especially with good mine placement, whereas if you have creep spread from the top 4th you have a wide open area to continually push back the bio and give you time to rally in lings | ||

Mines not firing for a while are caused by the targeted Zerglings repeatedly dying from Marines. But I wasn't talking about large engagements, I was talking about his drop in the main of Snute. Those mines never set off against the lings despite the lings surviving for what felt like a long time. | ||

Those mines never set off against the lings despite the lings surviving for what felt like a long time. Either he switched targets or it was the phenomenon I talked about above (closest Zerglings repeatedly dying before the missile is unleashed). | ||
