The whole build depends on doing lots of muta damage and if you don't get ahead in that stage then it gets crushed. It does lose if you don't get ahead.

How can you know that? You get 4 bases while containing your opponent on 3 just because of mutas, then all you have to do is hold a big attack.
Holding harass is just a matter of skill and multitasking, not the build. You have mutas and lings/well-placed broodlords/spines.

lol getting 4 bases and not dying to a 3 base push on muta tech is not a given at all

...you have broodlords to hold the big 3 base roach hydra infestor push. They end during/just before the attack.

yes and if youre terran you have bunkers and siege tanks to hold 1/1 roach this is a silly conversation. "the brood lords magically finish at the right time in the right numbers so it works"

They finish around 14 minutes if you do the build right, where you're dropping the infestation pit right after first mutas. And that's when roach/hydra/infestor push hits

starcraft is not played on paper and if it were as simple as "do the build right and defend" then koreans would be using it left and right. im just asking you to be reasonable instead of implying that you cant crush the shit out of it by playing better early and hitting a good timing

I said that Scarlett played worse than Leenock, so she lost with it, so I don't know what you're talking about. I have never implied that you can't kill it, lol. I'm saying that it can work and doesn't depend on dealing early damage.

i said "getting 4 bases and defending is not a given" and you said "the brood lords finish early enough to defend" so maybe you should pay more attention to what you are saying

? So? They do finish early enough, that doesn't mean you will hold, that means you can hold if you're playing well enough and if you're not behind. Still, didn't say that there's no way to kill it if you're just a better player.

go read your posts, not going to continue this silly argument when you don't know what you're saying

edit: or maybe you dont understand the phrase "a given" and need to look that up

And the final boss goes up against his final boss, his wrists.

Probably figured Kane has more drones left and could have marcoed up harder.

If Kane wins this map there is a guaranteed foreign Zerg in the Semifinals.

There could have been 3 protoss in the final 4 easily: Trust, San, and StarDust. Still possible to get 2.

Now I really wish Scarlett had gone. It could have really helped her Blizzcon chances.
