| Some ZvZ guru can tell me if Leenock is actually ahead after that 10p? I don't personally see it |

Quit overexaggerating. Losing one game isn't the end of the world for Leenock nor is it some impending elephant stampede.
Do you think Leenock could do that to Roro if Roro had played the game for two years and Leenock for a few months? The stampede is coming.
who knows?

You don't need a high drone count in ZvZ so Roro wasn't that behind at all. Also roach/hydra > roach
I think it was Nestea who said that around 65 drones is optimal for zvz. You dont need more
Depends how you're playing. If you're constantly trading units, higher worker counts are great. |

Now, we get to see some micro wars.

It depends but with roach hydra / infestor its true that higher drone count spreads you much thiner and roach splits into your base or burrowed infestor can totaly cripple it. |

Roro was like 14 hydras ahead with similar infestor and army count. Mineral bank is not that relevant in zvz.
Mineral bank could've counted for a lot more if he'd produced Zerglings to bolster his raids (if larva is an issue, he can add hatches), and spines to fortify his bases. Clearly, sitting on minerals isn't going to win you the game.
Zerglings are a liability when it's near 200 max. You are going to have a huge positional advantage by brute forcing your way through with a stronger army. Once you get in and cut reinforcements and snipe hatcheries/queens/drones, things start snowballing. |

Well it's one game. Anyone of these pros can win one game against each other. Now if a Kespa player ends up winning this tournament, then by all means let the elephant stampede happen. |

I do. Enjoy the time when GSL players are still competetive. Those days are numbered. |
