It might work, if the Terran doesn't realize the transition, but as soon as he does, I think the Zerg's dead.
I dunno, the 6-8th rax are delayed so they can't put out as much pressure as usual. I asked Snute on twitter, hopefully he responds!

Cure is doing this also I think Cure did 8 rax before 4th in most of his recent online TvZ that I watched. He macroes ultra well tho so he can get a quick 4th if he max quickly. You mean the series vs Snute? I only remember him as very passive in his opening and then tearing Snute apart later on. But it might have been with more rax focus
I remember some 3 marau/10rines prod which is the 8rax setup. Will have to check (and in the kung fu qualifier too there are Cure games, it is so good to get tons of Cure vods these days)

Could this be another Flash win and KT loses?

It depends who you're playing, this style would be really risky against a Z that just makes 1bajillion banes. Is it though? As far as I can see, you'll have 1 marauder, 8 marines, 2 thors and 2 mines (or 4 mines, depending on shortly upgrades finishing) of production and a ton of sim city. I think you can quite easily hold a mass baneling YOLO move..? you delay quite a lot your prod so you can soak up the 1st wave but i'm not sure about the second. the 3marau prod helps quite a lot vs mass bane/low muta style (true does that all the time). Sure if you hold you're in a very good spot but it'd be risky. Depends of the maps etc of course  It'll be interesting to keep an eye on this style for sure ^_^. Metagame shifts are the most exciting thing around!!
I love this game.

Houston, we have a problem.

I wonder if Bbyong will fly to the gold base once this round

I don't like Vaani cause of how you can't attack as Zerg on this map

You are gonna need some supply to build hosts. You'll need at least 8, preferably more for them to fulfill any purpose...

I think you can quite easily hold a mass baneling YOLO move..? We even saw a mass baneling yolo this game and it did very little. (imo the point when ByuL gave away his lead and started falling behind) But I also don't think that this style is very strong. The zerg should be able to deny the 5th base (what ByuL didn't) with mass mutas (which ByuL hadn't) and get a pretty sick ultra/baneling/infestor deathball to go with it when you are that passive. And then it's a Terran that eventually has to attack because he can't get a 5th properly and the zerg has like 6bases but he has to fight into said deathball on creep.
