I'm starting to regret picking Classic over ByuL, but I guess that it's still too early to say.


Not too sure if Classic would get as much play time as Byul though

Not sure how relevant a tech advantage for Dream was, Wolf put too much emphasis on that when the bigger story was the 2/2 of the roach/hydra vs the 1/1 of Dream. That wouldn't have mattered as much if it was LBM, because WM murder lings and banes, but its a game breaker with Roaches and Hydras.

Been losing alot on ladder lately to this. Its so hard to judge how much stuff there actually is in a roach/hydra ball. You think you are fine but turns out he has way more than you thought

Against this style absolutely but Dream didn't recognize this style early enough and so now it's too little too late.

Yep, this or pure bio; Mines are of little help beyond the 1/1 Speedroaches phase.

Roach/Hydralisk in ZvT.

If we're going to see TvZ in Proleague may as well go all the way and make it absolutely ridiculous.

It's far from being ridiculous, 1/1 Speedroaches into 2/2 Roaches/hydras timings are deadly.


They are decent if your opponent plays as badly against it as Dream does.

Sure, because that insane 7% attack speed increase make them a de-facto requirement in TvZ.

Roach pressure ?

With upgrades ? Is he going hydra behind this ? Or infestor roach ?

Roaches/hydras, yes. There are also some mutas transitions, or lings/banes/roaches.


But roach hydra is not really good against terran no ? He's going to throw infestors after this ? Or SH (because upgrades) ? I feel infestor

If played as a timing, as ByuL does, it's good. The transition is either infests or Vipers (if there are Tanks), then generally ultras or broods.


But you won't have upgrades for ultra. So BL is more possible now ? (oh there's a spire)

Not the melee upgrades yes, but it's not as critical as they're used as meat shield; plus they still kill Marines in 2 shots even with 0 or 1 melee upgrade.

Yeh, ByuL deliberately picked a terrible strategy hoping Dream would play very badly.
