Just play something else viOLet, Roach/Ravager/Queen is for defensive players.

It's also the most boring play style we ever had.

That and he isnt playing mass queen style, which seems to be the best answer against anything T can throw at Z

Seems like the only way to deal with drops as air dominance is on terrans side.

Especially against this style on this map queens would have been perfect.

I'm really glad uThermal didn't go for 3 rax reaper on Apotheosis. The reason why that build is so great on Frozen Temple and Galactic Process is that with great control, even if the Zerg player reacts perfectly you're at worse even when going into the mid-game. On Apotheosis you have to proxy the raxes and if you fail you're really far behind.

TaeJa was far behind after his 3 rax reaper opening vs ragnarok on frozen temple

It's only boring at the roach ravager stage but once you get ultras the style gets really exciting because ultras make for incredibly fun games.

The early part is fun for terrans and the later one for zerg´s. All is well. (nah, TvZ is a shitty matchup at the moment)

Okay, earlier I said Uthermal is a bit of a one trick pony, especially earlier in the tourney, but he's really impressing me both with his strong play ad macro, butbhis build choice too.

Just took a look at it. Taeja messed up his micro and got surrounded by the lings and lost five reapers. Fairly self-explanatory.
