  • I doubted Meomaika's ability and had to eat a shoe. Maybe it's a sign I should play like him.

    The church of Meomaika, core beliefs:
    - Creep tumours are a waste of energy, overlord poop is free.
    - Chokepoints are where your opponent chokes.
    - Baneling is waste of money
    - Hydralisk counters everything
    - If you're attacking you're winning
    - Lair and Hive are for +2 and +3 melee weapon upgrades

      Also, infestors are for splash damage, and if you're going to build mutas, build a massive pack of them.

    Things that will help you do a Meo ling/hydra build include having your hydras on a different control key to the meatshield zerglings - that way, you can easily retreat the hydras while the zerglings trade ichor for time. With the low economy that supports the early ling/hydra attack, you can't really afford to replace hydras, so learning how to not YOLO your hydras so they all die in a fire is very important. Note also Meo tends to run 44 drones off two and a half bases - stocking the third takes larva away from army, so he tends not to do it. Finally, the lack of investment in Queens (run one per hatch) means you need Spores earlier than a heavy Queen build will have them.

  • @WrecklessSandwich
    @WrecklessSandwich Рік тому

    I mean, I can tell you why you had to eat your shoe and I haven't even played seriously since Wings. Meo went into that attack with double the army supply and he had a ball of hydras against gateway units with zero splash damage. A couple of cannons and batteries aren't gonna counterbalance that. Choke points can do a lot, but that's just not the case if he can simply shred the wall without fear of losing his hydras. Maybe it would be a different story if he was trying to push up into the main, but not there with no ramp.

    Eh, the first attack started (generously) at 7:08 (PiG made the comment at 6:40). The final battle still hadn't started by 10:50 and teh game wasn't won until 11:40. Almost a 5 minute difference constituting about 1/3 of the total game time. I'm not sure that bet would have held up if there was any level of specificity in it.
