But the BFH nerf hurt small amounts of helions pretty big.
At what point do you have a small amount of BFH when you go for double factory with reactor....?

Zerglings and roaches are surprisingly good against Mech. The whole thing comes down to the fact that Zergs can destroy the Terran army and remax at a significantly faster rate.
Also Mutas may be able to sneak a couple of Thor snipes before it starts massing up.
Broodlords also, as you mentioned.
And before patch, neural parasite.

And if you don't have broodlords you pretty much dead.. difficult to get a good balance of mech units. Mass thors + hellions and few tanks? Yeah that's quite hard to balance..
As nestea showed, mass banelings own mass thors/hellions if you get them in a good position.
Also, he was so far behind before the mech anyways, then he was behind on upgrades too.

LosirA is going for hatchy first on 15/18. Happy taking his natural at 15/19 to followed up with a barrack at 16/19.
LosirA is still droning up and takes his 3rd at 3:35.
LosirA takes his gas after that followed up with a spawning pool at the 3:57 minut.

lol Losira.
See how this goes.

Sexy until he loses to slightly delayed early pressure.

I remember Madfrog doing this build a long time ago.

Man if losira loses to 2rax pressure :D

Isn't it better to get the pool to have a queen for injects?

He had +1 aka drones die in 2 hits. Maybe you missed the edited part of my first post?

Tech switching would be pretty good I reckon, since the mech army takes long to build up. Like go mutas to force lots of thors, then switch into roaches to take advantage of lack of tanks.

Losira took the gas so he could check if happy is sending his marines immediately to attack or at least compel happy to keep his marines at home to destroy the extractor. Tastosis hope you see this!

I know, but I hate that people are judging a style that a player transitioned to after the opponent had already lost. All Happy needed to do was not derp really hard and he was going to win.
