Why did you say that? Seems to me that losing the third was going to make him lose against the 8g blink follow-up anyway.

30supply lead, 60workers, macro hatch, 3rd base (=4th hatch) finishes before the attack comes, as well as roach speed would have finished.
But then he did that roach move in the open which cost him so much.

I remember 55 drones, and he only lost 5 Roaches there, how this would have prevented Zest from going behind the mineral to execute his trick?

Let's be real, this had very little to do with the map. Losing the third to nothing but zealot pressure would lose you the game on any map. Zest would've just continued warping in stalkers and killed soO's army. Here he just blinked into the main. Outcome's the same.

He lost a bunch of lings too as far as I saw it. And yeah, he just has to be there and prevent Zest from going there. defend the ramp/space on the left. It's tough after losing the hatch, but he had the setup and Zest delayed his timing quite a bit for that zealot harass.

kind of funny how many people are theorycrafting on how "obvious" the ideal response is when catz specifically pointed out this is a meta counter to the counter of a previous build which was also a meta cheese


This build, as far as I've tested it, should have no hard reactive counter, perhaps you can meta it, but otherwise its rock solid, we practiced it a lot, if he hadn't made a forge, he would've just defending and not spine contained, for example

Not much. The bashing is way more annoying than the casters ever could be

it seems to me like it's just soo fanboys being butthurt about casters hyping zest.
why do you not believe it? the legend has alived!

Gumba runs up and Innovation tears out his spine. Just as we've joked this entire time.

For the good of Blizzcon I hope soO can take this. Sad he went out early in the Kespa cup or it wouldn't be such a pressing issue for him

While Zest is indeed like a zerg MVP, Soo is playing really badly, timid even, always letting his timing window pass and playing badly overall
