And lings & banes are useless to defend this when the marines are between buildings...

Plus roaches are the worst thing ever to defend drops and they were still part of his composition for a long time.

Then again, what does zerg have to defend again drops of 24 marines?

It's a matter of army movement. But going lings/banes/roaches into mutas certainly does not help against this style.

Yeah but when I try that I usually lose all my medivacs Innovation style :D

ForGG would too, if he didn't attack at 2-3 places at once. :D

But what other people are saying is also correct, this has a lot to do with the map.

Except for hydras, that's pretty much all the units that can be made at this point in time.
So would hydras be better?

It feels like it's *only* a matter of intercepting the drops before they arrive (which is mostly relying on the terran making a mistake). Once they arrive... what can defend a drop of 3-4 medivacs full of marines in the middle of your buildings?

That's one of the big mysteries of SC2 for me. I just don't see what Zerg can do against this, except trying to see it coming.

No, lings/banes/mutas is fine, but Zerg has to pre-split his army in such a way the drops at the north are defended or at least delayed by lings/banes only; even behind minerals, you cannot drop if there are already 30+ lings waiting. Meanwhile, you defend his elevator at the south with the rest of your army and mutas.

Not hydras. You actually want to skip roaches and just have a lot of ling/bling then get mutas. Then you leave fairly large groups of units at your bases and spot drops with overlords.

See if HerO loses now, I'd feel so badly inside. Wouldn't be the first time we've seen a rematch go from 2-0 to 0-2

It is only the fifth tournament in a row with PvP finals after all if it happens.
