Mothership + army goes for Nestea's static defense and kills all of it. Nestea losing his counterattack to DTs. Nestea loses his fourth base. Nestea getting vipers + overseers, but loses corrupters. 29:00 NesTea 157 vs Alicia 194Nestea still going for his counterattack with ultralisks and overseers. More stargates for Alicia. Alicia kills Nestea's fourth as well. Alicia recalls and loses a lot of his army to ultralisks but crushes Nestea while retaining a lot of units. 44 mutalisks for Nestea. Alicia contains Nestea onto 2 bases. Nestea has almost no minerals but 4500 gas. 4 phoenixes on the way for Alicia. 31:00 NesTea 161 vs Alicia 200Alicia is completely ready for mutalisks but is out of position as Nestea runs them into the natural. Nestea kills a lot of the phoenixes but the army backs up into the mutalisks and Nestea is pretty much cornered. 33:00 NesTea 119 vs Alicia 192Alicia gets Nestea down to about 12 mutalisks and moves out again. Nestea trying to counterattack with swarmhosts. Nestea has some infestors and kills some phoenixes but loses the infestors to the ground army. 35:00 NesTea 77 vs Alicia 187Alicia attack-moving into Nestea's last mining base and Nestea GG's! Alicia wins 2-0! | ||

Mass muta switches is a great way to look kind of cool before dying. Considering Alicia barely lost his army and had his Stargate infrastructure it wouldn't have worked either way. And as you said, it's a nice way to go out in flames but likely won't do much unless you inflict game-ending amounts of damage to the Protoss. | ||

But if you don't start phoenix as he starts mutas, you are pretty dead in most situations. Even when ahead. So it depends on meta... And if the specific player does it a lot. | ||

Mutas are great if you can manipulate the game to where they can be effective, i.e. keep toss on three bases, make them commit huge amounts to phoenix while you expand everywhere. In the position he was in this game, even if Nestea gets 50 mutas before Alicia has a single phoenix out, it still shouldn't work. Just stay alive, get phoenix, win by default. | ||

Yeah the game was over. No more mining bases for Nestea and the muta switch made him broke. So ofc he cannot win at that point. Even if P does a basetrade, there is no way for Nestea to get back. I was just saying in general. I dislike mutas. Which must mean they are good  I like lings... Stay on lings, and I'll be fine... Hiding behind my high walls like King Priam of Troy :D | ||

Hiding behind my high walls like King Priam of Troy :D Well since the two zerg styles that work in the late game against P are mass muta and hosts, I guess we could nerf mutas if we buffed hosts, maybe we could make the locusts flying units. Sound good? | ||
