      The zerg play style in this video is just amazing, instead of stacking armies, the sudden invasion in early game is just beautiful. The worms are really popping out of nowhere, the true definition of apocalypse. Sadly, the terrain maximize his base coverage to the edge of available land in the remaining matches.

    • @ddenozor
      @ddenozor 5 месяцев назад +1

      At that point Terran lost all their tanks except one remaining in the base and alot of bio units aswell as their 4th base while Z kept vipers and most of his hydras alive, which are probably gonna turn into lurkers soon. Without tanks and a considerable bio force you can't even take that 4th back which means you won't have enough scans for those lurkers and you absolutely can't be active on the map which means Z will have infinite resources and opportunities while you are already down to 2 mining bases (main base has to be running out at that point) and ghosts are a distant dream. Maru might be able to win from that position against a plat zerg but certainly not against someone like Dark.
