So i'm a zerg player but when I play PvT I always go for fast mind coltrol into 3 fact vults. I generally scout after my first fact is up because otherwise my build gets slowed down waaayyyyy too much. But recently I keep getting cheesed but stuff like 2 fact expo builds. How can I possibly defend against this stuff when they come before even get my first dark archon out?!

Help please!

Zortch, you need to research dark swarm wayyy earlier and then it's a simple job of recalling your wraiths into his mineral line.

You can defend yourself with carriers while waiting for your barracks... Alternatively, warp in a defiler from Aiur and use dark swarm.

Ah if he researches dark swarm early, his heal will come late, then it'll screw up his timing for ensnare and everything will be ruined.
this is my quote.

My favorite PvT strategy is what I call the ultimate tank push: arbiters recalling sieged tanks across the map. You don't have to unsiege the tanks at all! And they're stealthed. It's so imba, we need a new patch for this.

don't listen to any of these noobs. They don't know what they're talking about

Have you tried pylon walling yourself in? Last I checked, pylon walls trap vultures outside your base unless your opponent is an ear hacker like Boxer

If you can drag the game for a long time, you should win. Afterall, 3 fac > 2 fac

Don't complain if his unreal macro and sick timing senses force you to crumble under the pressure.

I actually do that on those Golem Ums maps. I just make a assload of tanks, and slowly recall them towards the other guys bunker. Wins almost all the time.
Not bad for a cat toy.
