Regarding mules: yes the other races have their own benefits like larvae and warpgates/chrono, and in a "normal" game these mechanics are very balanced. The point that people are making is that in extreme situations like "pull all your workers and all-in" the mule mechanic becomes imbalanced. If both sides are reduced to like 5 workers, then the benefits of inject are minimal whilst the benefits of mules are huge. In the same way, when the map is almost mined out, mules are a total waste where as chrono boost and injects are still useful to remax instantly. Which one happens more often? 5 vs 5 workers in mid game or super late game with 200/200 battles?
Well, super late game the terran can sac SCVs to have a larger army supply, but it's a reasonable point. In other situations the other races are more powerful. I wasn't saying that the mule was imbalanced in the abstract but in certain situations it is imbalanced. It's also true that warpgates and injects can be imbalanced in other situations (like instant remaxing).

I wonder if 15 drones + 1 hatchery & having to defend against a ball of marines would be better than 8 drones + 2 hatcheries. Perhaps sC could've still had that game if he killed the hatchery and left.
Yeah I think that if he killed the hatch the "curve" of economy and recovery for Curious would have been a lot longer to rise. And it's not like it would have taken ages to kill the hatch, it was like 5 or 6 seconds of focus fire.
Anyway, I don't know why he didn't went tanks after that, especially after his first second push was cleaned, no way the subsequent pure bio pushes will work.

Yeah. Why not Virus? I think hes the best on ST after maybe Bomber and these days July and Parting.

Come out as the ace (against a bad ZvPer), and risk being baneling busted...

Yes most QQ posts come from people who don't understand the game very well, but to say only high masters+ have the knowledge to complain about things is extremely ignorant and honestly one of the worst/most annoying arguments around.
I second this. who are u to determine the "sufficient game knowledge line" to be cut? some say diamond, some say master, some say high master, some say gm. You say high masters+, I say Korean GM. Point is, the game is played by lots of people and they all have rights to discuss.
na high master toss myself.
sorry for my poor english

Wasn't that because he needed a lot of SCVs on minerals thus he didn't mine gas until much later?

No amount of larva would save a zerg with 1 drone and 15 minerals, same with protoss and chronoboost.

Most protoss wall of at the nexus on this map nowadays. Walling at the wide ramp has become pretty dangerous.

Yeah I think it's that, but he still took his gas way before gging. What I mean is that turtling could have been a better option.
