    Actually about your starcraft to guitar theory. Your right hand moves in a more pivoting style of motion which is similar to strumming a guitar and your left hand moves mostly in fine motions like doing scales.

    The way Lowko feels about today's Skytoss playstyle is EXACTLY the way I used to feel about the way Zerg played against Terran when they'd turtle until Broodlords and then just win by attack moving. It's so bad when such a dull playstyle is the best one.

    As a musician I can confirm that supposedly unrelated skills can help each other. Music requires timing during fine motor control. I applied this to welding and learned to aluminum weld almost instantly because of my timing motion skills from music. Aluminum welding is hard for most welders because you have to move the fastest. I could easily feel the timing and not depend on sight because of my musical skills.

    With playing an instrument, It might be the other way around. I can't imagine your pinky building strength just by using a computer keyboard. But with instruments, like a guitar, you will be able to build up strength and flexibility. The application of force is just different. Muscle memory, however, maybe it can go hand in hand (computer keyboard and instrument), but having strength will definitely benefit the muscle memory. I'm a guitar player btw. :P

    In game 3, Rogue got the roach warren way before scouting the stargate. I may be wrong, but the strategy seems to me to just be losing against robo or twilight openers. Immortals obviously hardcounter it, as do disruptors to an extent, and blink stalkers might provide the micro to kill the army? I think a glaive opener probably loses to this strat too, but glaive adepts are remarkably strong against unupgraded roaches. Point is, I think if the Protoss built an army instead of a third, the zerg player just ends up behind economically.
