In tournament play, it's a good idea to mix in some cheeses to keep the opponent honest. How come Snute isn't mixing in any cheeses?
because zvt cheese is weak garbage that's blindcountered by banshees

Snute is missing injects for a really long time now, I think since the beach-map game at least, it's just that in the last few games he's been failing other things hard as well, so it wasn't as apparent because he pretty much never got to the mid-game stage unphased

anything up to a bo39, snute would've won and make bunny look silly.
sadly winning 20 games isn't enough in this case:/

He IS missing injects, he's constantly floating lots of resources, he gets behind 40 supply without major engagements happening. I'm not making that shit up.

Bunny will eat Snute's essence and become more stronger, like piccolo.
He may come out of his wcs group with this boost in power level

Bunny messed up his macro in two games, aside from that he's been pretty much as flawless as it gets for the amount of hours they're playing for, while Snute in some of the games was behind 30 supply without anything happening and 1k/1k in the bank at like 11 minutes
