the way i saw the finals where this "build" originated. fantasy decided to go for some valkyries because jaedong was silly and wasted his hydras on the front. then there was a window to go for this. against an all in straight to muta its pretty clear this fails.

[thundasc]

yessir sometimes its like they are twins i swear.. lol

[HeLL12aiseR]

the current Zerg builds, which include at least 3 hatcheries. so the Zergs have transitioned back into Jaedong's classic 2 hatch mutas and now it's time for the Terrans to adapt again. Flash failed at adapting hence failed at this match!

you mean yellow not luxury :P

[Yolastresort]

Is the half depot really worth it? The spare change you lose in the process aside, investing those minerals that early in the game in essentially nothing delays tech a little. Could that be part of why Flash wasn't ready by that 20 or so seconds?

[thundasc]

i wasn't implying that at all. i was making the point that pro players have certain timings down in their heads and throwing in a little idra bashing because this is an excuse he uses sometimes when he loses to people he thinks are beneath him

i probably needed a comma in there somewhere

as you can see in the bit above it i said yarnc played smart

[Murkglow]

Probably but that's not what I'm saying. I just mean that vT Yellow isn't exactly a "weaker" player. Yellow is more then able to face any terran on equal footing, he doesn't need to pull off some special build to make up for his short comings as the post I replied to was implying.

I think if any gamer had a choice though... they'd chose to play yellow 10 times out of 10 over playing Jaedong. Build order loss though i think... has Fantasy build ever won against 2 hatch muta? and is this really the fantasy build? thought you needed vult drops for that

[Murkglow]

Considering Yellow has the best ZvT (at least % wise, even over Jaedong) I don't know if Yellow is that much of a "weaker" player at least in this match up.
