I've always been impressed with minor things that Avilo adds to his play. Like planting barracks in open spaces against ultras to create chokes. Even uncompleted, the Zerg will have to take a few swipes to get rid of them. And usually, Zergs don't micro their army and get caught up in the choke. | ||

This is true but it's usually against weaker competition imo, he's gotta survive until the lategame for that to even come into play. But SimCity is a very underutilized skill in sc2 I feel like, and most of the time is overlooked. BroodWar there were so many little simcity tricks that could be used and was an important aspect of the game. | ||

Much like zerg creep when SC2 was new. I saw an Idra vs Mvp ladder game that Artosis casted, and Idra's creep spread was so lacking by today's standards. Once Zergs figured out that creep is fucking good, they use it to great effect. If a Terran is maxed, and has plenty of production, then getting sim-city is better than banking up resources imo. Re-maxing is better for the other two races. So planting planetaries would be better - as it buys Terrans the needed time to remax. | ||
