With a wallin which protects the pylon and traps the lings if they go for it. Pretty clever i must say

Yeah, building placement was another big factor. The early second pylon to keep the gateway powered was pretty pivotal.

If you wall the ramp you lose. The whole thing is kinda messed up if you think about it :D.

Because MSC was made to help stablize PvP which has the strongest all-ins due to warp gates. Since it needs to help hold the most aggressive P all-in builds, it pretty much holds everything else as well.

The mothership core wasn't out when the lings first arrived. Byul lost so many lings without killing many workers or the expo. He went for the pylons instead.

Zerg not making great decisions with his early Zerglings and not really doing anything except killing, what, 2 zealots? I think he MAYBE got one probe too, lol


Well what is the right decision?
I have seen probes kill 6 lings on their own


He split up his lings too much, and kept throwing away small groups to the MsC instead of keeping them all in a group and trying to either kill a nexus or probes. He kind of tried to do both and failed really hard.

The building placement for Classic also helped out a ton. I think Zerg was expecting to be able to unpower the Gateway and/or prevent Cyber Core from going down, but that didn't happen.

Even after all that he STILL almost got the Nexus.

yah, if you fuck up your micro then you can actually trade inefficient against probes. however, just a bit of micro and you do so much damage that when the 2nd round of lings arrive it is GG.
In this game, Byul was indecisive. he neither killed probes nor the nexus at the natural. He even split his lings between main and natural, basically leaving the lings in the natural to die!
whoever I pick for my anti team turns gosu

Yeah, I need to stop ramp walling on ladder, I think. You essentially say "here, have my natural" vs early pools lol
