oh for sure, mass muta is exciting to watch, i love mutas myself. i just don't understand how she was supposed to win. seems like her ultra transition was way too late. i think either swarm hosts like someone else said or going into roaches after she pushed TLO back the first time would have been a better option. i'm really curious to see a VOD or something of her playing this on ladder and beating good players

You can, but yuo'd need to be Toodming and get a 360 surround.

Maybe during his darker days, but TLO is extremely good these days again

That was a fun game though. Maybe Scarlett should have transitioned to something beyond mass muta, but hindsight is always right. 8-1 for the day, and a very successful day of games for her.

Inori, the worst GSTL player of all time beat Stephano in his prime. Never forget.

Or be JD and attack 5 infestor with mutas and get hit with 0 fungals. I still watch that gif in amazement.

His ZvP is abysmal. Look at aligulac: ZvT 1719 Pts. ZvZ 1616 Pts. ZvP 1566 Pts.

i'm pretty sure TLO refuses to use swarm hosts for the specific purpose of convincing protoss that we need them to survive. watching him get annihilated in WCS EU because he tried to keep going roach/hydra/viper/ultra against a protoss deathball hurt my heart badly

I feel like a pre-spread would've helped. Form a half circle, then a move while microing banelings/small groups of mutas to prevent clumping. Or, for the sake of ZvT, baneling landmines  .

to be honest in the first engagement scarlett had insane muta splits, the first fungal literally went right between two flocks of mutas that both just curved around it. that's why i was so surprised she didn't pull off any more sick micro in the second fight

Question, if Huk and desrow lose and Scarlett comes back out for the ace match and wins, is it an all kill?

ya that first engagement made it look like that muta ball would actually do it, but the second big one... not so much

Based on last season of ATC, I would say yes.
