and i failed at it. I think even Bisu himself would frown upon my horrid attempt at his build.

in my defense the zerg won with guardians and queens, and the bisu build does not have too many counters againt it. also i did well in terms of macro up to the 6-7 minute mark. but after that it all fell apart. I miss micro'd my cosairs and they all died without taking a single overlord. after that i just started puming ranodm units to try and counter the lurkers, but stupid me forgot the obs. so i died to them all.


I did better than i orignally though though, and it was a fun game. but i just don't have the apm, nor did i scout enough to counter whatever he was doing.

oh well, off to another game, and another loss

I thought bisu play had easy access to sairs which denies guardian and queen play (queens can ensnare though).

The trick is the keep your corsairs alive and not lose them to scourge. Losing the first sair too early can mean the game for you.

Hahaha, read the liquipedia and practice it man. You'll get better. A quick thing I want to point out, though,

"I mis-micro'd my corsairs and they all died without taking a single overlord."
This is a problem in your mentality. Your early corsairs are primarily for scouting, and then for defending against mutalisks, and then finally for killing overlords. Overlord hunting should be your absolute last priority. If both of you performed your openings without mistakes, you should have time to kill one overlord with your first corsair, but that's about it.

Bisu Build doesn't really allow Zerg to get to Guardians is the trick

Overlords are not necessary and if you ever watch pro games they usually just lose 1 before scourge chase them all the way back home. But on lower levels you can kill a lot of overlords though. And where are the mention of DTS T___T

Thats like half of the bisu build right there!

DTs and Sairs should keep him in base, meanwhile you should take 3rd and get HTs with storm to deffend, thats basic idea of this build. 4-5, maybe 6 sairs with +1 and 2 dts moving where you kill overlords. It's really hard to pull off.

It doesn't really cost the Zerg anything to keep an overlord around every expo for detection. If he knew it were coming he'd have gotten a spore so that you couldn't just kill it.

Bisu build listed on Liquipedia is really outdated, so you should just ignore it.. I plan on writing up a guide on the updated iteration of Sair/DT for modern PvZ play, once I find the time to research the specific details

The neo +1 sair/speedlot attack is the newest and best expansion yet

Does anyone actually know what the Bisu build means? Is it sair/DT? Just the Forge FE itself? The +1 zealot attack? People toss the word around more than "metagame" or "imbalanced" it seems...

Pylon at nat. Anywhere else and it isn't bisu build.

People call every zerg build "5 hat hydra" these days too when that isn't even close to being true. So annoying :|
