Persistently going Mech, is setting yourself up for a fall if the opposition knows how to deal with it. HOTS is just not mech friendly. It's slow, the maps are bad and the units in the game wreck it with ease. lennock isn't exactly in top for, but he knew how to kill it with ease, imho

He just abused mistakes Supernova made. Nothing more. Those 2 games had nothing to do how good or bad mech is. Like the positioning of Supernova's units was so bad. For example Leenock was able to snipe Supernova's 6th refinery like 3 times in a row. No turret or Thor standing there. He was able to pick 2 Thors with burrow with minimal loses. Then again, Supernova got caught underprepared for mutas. He let his Raven die and never rebuild it and went on to attack on creep. The list is endless. Of course Leenock just won. Lets move on, this was just so bad.

It is extremely hard to defend your third on merry go round, because its so open. I bet most mech players veto it.

Yes, that is true, but he had the units right there. I see this happening all the time. Mech players positioning their units in a way Zerg can easily abuse it (either snipe key structures, or the units themselves - both happened in both games here). Obviously Supernova is a good player, but it's not hard to build 1-2 additional turrets in key locations, or build a sensor tower. On such large map, it's pretty obvious Zerg will try to drag out the game. And as a mech player, you should not really be looking to close it asap. Do we agree?

With how good his P practice partners are I don't understand how it's so bad.
