But I don't understand how Elazer lacked the roaches to counter the second wave. Makes no sense. Did he drone again ?

In my experience, this sometimes happen even with constant unit production. you do not hold this without some kind of sim city blocking the zealots, or sniping the warp prism (at least not consistently). also you cant make units too quickly even though that'd be the normal reaction to seeing the warp prism

drone up to ~40, push back the first attack, roach roach roach. Don't see any flaws in that plan.

I once almost lost a game where toss got natural cancelled by 13pool to this all-in. Mass roaches don't beat zealots if you don't kill the prism :[

I got to admit, these games are fun to watch. Eagerly anticipating the next bullshit build out of Hitman. It's like the complete opposite of facing these builds on ladder.

I think without the time warps he should have won this handily. Anyway, I wonder what Hitman has in store for the next game . I hope a chargelots flood ^^

Yeah mb, 40 drones is def enough i guess. But I dont really see 4-5 more roaches helping too much in that situation, its not like hitman even executed it even close to perfect

Speaking of, I seem to have broken my curse. I'm 11-1 on predictions, only had Harstem instead of Petraeus advancing in Group A.

I know NaNiwa used to do that build all the time during one DH. It then got quite trendy, then people figured how to counter it and it just disappeared.

I hope Hitman does the same thing so that we can see Elazer adapting.
