Ah. Totally different game if there were even just a few mutas around

yeah I think Nerchio would have won this handily with a less sloppy mutalisk control, but he had no way to phase out the drops in late game

He also would've won it handily without the upgrade disadvantage given by the +1 snipe- it was a really tight game, where the smallest mistakes spiraled hard.

ehhh i see your point but i dunno that attack upgrades are the biggest thing in ravager infestor ultra style zvt. it didn't help though, that's for sure

That last fight was so close, though, I think the one attack upgrade would've made a lot of a difference

The first time Polt doesn't go 3 rax reaper on this map, the spawning positions are actually ideal for it. LOL

That last fight was close in due part because Polt had a huge army on Nerchio's side of the map though.

Dropping Polt is just too much for Nerchio. I'm asking myself, why Nerchio did not get some units at home for the whole time, when it's common knowledge that Polt is a nasty dropper.

he did have units left back most of the time but if you're not ahead of polt it's very hard to split your army against him. having too much at home and losing your fourth to a push is not an improvement

also roach ravager infestor is harder to divide because each unit is worth more than ling bane

I think he adapted well to the drop style, he just thought that he'd have a good enough fight there to win. But, Polt hit 3/3 mid-fight, so that probably messed him up a lot.

And ling bane is faster, so if you are mispositioned with it, it's the easiest set of units in the game to reposition.

Infestation pits coming down before 1/1 is finished for Zerg is so weird.
