Actually I don't think it matters. Just suicide a full army of ling/bane in to drain the Raven energy, then remax and go in for round 2 while all the Ravens are empty. Ling/bane is super cheap compared to a full Tier 3 zerg army

The key here is the economy, Dark had basically his whole half of the map

Maru would have held longer with liberators, these ravens did nothing.

What?
Impossible.
You can't split or micro vs Raven.

You say that but it was 8 base zerg to 4 base terran.

Despite how cost effective ghosts and ravens supposedly are, if the zerg is ahead a few expansions they will still win. That's why usually in Maru's lategame he sends banshees and ghosts to take out hatcheries
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Yeah, it was the eco that killed him. Dark got too many bases and kept them mining unopposed.

Mech with the banshee hit squad + hellion runbys is probably the better choice since you have a solid tank line to fall back to

It is the answer when you can afford remaxing at least twice

Ling/bane is really cheap compared to an army full of tech units. If a lategame Zerg can't afford to max out on ling/bane twice they're in a really rough spot already

Tbf being able to insta-remax a few times is common for Zerg in the late game.

Which is perfectly reasonable given that a terran turtling to mass raven isn't much of a threat until they actually get there. Zerg can just out-expand them.

His mistake was probably as Tastosis pointed out that he took the harder to defend bases first.
No way Dark can attack like this when Maru sits on the "normal" first 5 bases
