Snow's Forge goes up after his nexus. Then a cannon, and a gateway. ZerO prepares a third hatch at 6:00 as he discovers his opponent with his second overlord.

ZerO 's natural (that is, his more secure base in the bottom left corner, is where he begins his lair. Snow's core completes. The first zealot is out. Core not spinning for dragoon range.

4 zerglings torment Snow's only fielded zealot as ZerO gains Zergling speed. The first sair is out. A spire is morphing at ZerO's 9:00 as a sair attacks an overlord at his natural. Zerglings inspect the wall and retreat. Forge is spinning and an evo chamber has been researched. Spore colonies soon to follow. Citadel of Adun is complete, and Snow has 4 corsairs out.

A squad of four zealots moves out to attack the 3rd at 6:00, at which two sunkens, a spore, an evo chamber and a hydralisk den await. ZerO has taken a 4th behind his 3rd, in the bottom right. Zealots scout the 4th, and die before the sair stack shows up. Meanwhile, a few zealots run by ZerO's natural wall and deal minor damage to ZerO's economy.

A lull in the action. Snow's robotics facility is nearly complete. Hydras move out, and meet the sairs for a moment. Snow's simcity bifurcates the area between his main and natural into two, with a large wall of pylons and gateways. The hydras retreat to ZerO's wall before moving to occupy the area between the mineral-only patch and the main. They are met by a mass of zealots backed up by HTs and an archon! the drones are in full retreat! Hydras fail to prevent the spire snipe!

Hydras get multiple kills on corsairs in the center. Shuttles are out. Snow is preparing a deadly followup to that successful attack. Hydras move in to deny the mineral-only third that is going up for Snow, and they are successful. There are zealots once again in ZerO's natural! They are handled. Snow appears to have only two corsairs remaining.

Snow uses that drop to take his third in the middle expo nearest to his base.

Zero has lurkers now.

Snow has gone heavily into dragoons, with an observer for incline support. DTs have been dropped in ZerO's natural, and deal minor damage before being handled. Snow's force is Dragoons, with zealots and HT as support. ZerO is developing despite the adversity. His spire is back up. Shuttle full of Zealots headed for ZerO's naturall. ZerO catches it with hydras and a sunken!. The Shuttle is sniped on the return trip by spare hydras. Snow pushes out and approaches ZerO's main wall! Lurkers guard ZerO's main from within. The Dragoons move back to defend the mineral-only 3rd Snow is once again preparing. Major engagement in the hilltop south of Snow's mineral-only 3rd! Hydralurk comes in through the back (the left of the mineral-only third, gets the observer, but loses most hydras. Storm cleans up the rest, but the rest of ZerO's forces push in from the south! Battle is over - Only scraps of Snow's army remain, and the second ZerO wave advances!

The second wave overcomes ZerO's forces and the mineral-only third is shut down despite strong storms and speedlots on demand. Snow is in trouble and he knows it! He ggs!

Zero attacks from two sides, the southern side a bit faster to distract Snow's main army. 2nd army attacks but fails to take down the nexus amid storms and goon fire.

Zero reinforces his attack with more hydralurk. He attacks from the south again. Snow just ran out of units to defend. GG

This looks to be a stompin' from Zero.
