there are 2-3instances of it being held of a hatch first. Mainly because the aggressor fucked up and the defender microed godlike. But that's true for every BO-win-interaction.

I've seen lots of pro players hold 10p bane with hatch first consistently. It's just on maps like that with pocket bases that 10p bane is a LOT stronger.

I am not arguing that there actually can't be BO wins, but the notion that there isn't skill involved is nonsense.
You don't have to play as greedy as possible, sure, it might be better if it works out in the end, but there is always a safer build which doesn't lose you automatically the game.
You also can hold 10 pool bane with hatch first, it was shown before.

at least he didn't run his banes into his hatch against hatch first like Roro a bad foreigner

I like how we are slowly going back to calling koreans foreign :D:D

Yeah seems I missed Targa getting gas and a drone before he even makes the pool. Of course he didn't have to do that, he was way too greedy.

I've seen lots of pro players hold 10p bane with hatch first consistently. It's just on maps like that with pocket bases that 10p bane is a LOT stronger.

I think vaani is one of the best maps to hold it on due to maplength and because if you scrap up some semi-defense, you still get to hold your natural, while if you take damage on other maps, the speedling follow up kills the nat and then you are just further behind.

We had that in 2013. IESF, SC2 Women's championships, national qualifier result was overturned because the woman wasn't the actual one playing.

Leenock holds 10pool bane 10/10 times with his 15 hatch build.

I think Targa was actually doing that build

but yeah in-base nat is a bitch

Don't really get it, why does in-base nat help the attacker ?

well, okay, let me rephrase that - it's easier to hold with pool first, of course, but it's not like hatch first is in any way weak against 10 pool bane, it's just that pool first is strong against that
