What about lurker openings? Arn't they a lot safer from these early zealot/corsair? If Soulkey had followed up his 4th base and spire with a hydra den instead of planning for fast hive, Bisu probably would have turned around from his natural instead of getting 10ish drone kills. I can't help think that transitioning to muta/scourge was a very bad move since Bisu had been steadily sinking gas into corsairs rather than other tech while building up his early zeals.

Bisu's PvT was never awful. It was just never nearly as good as his other two matchups. His vT ELO peak is #12 all-time, while his vZ peak is #8 all-time (behind Jaedong and 6 terrans).

PvT #3, PvP #1, PvZ #1 by the way.


I watch as many Bisu games as I have time for because I admire his skill, he's pretty great in all his matchups. I just remember a couple of PvT games toward the end of last season where he threw away carriers into goliaths and used archons a whole bunch. Bad decisions but the games were still tense and exciting, and he won a few despite all that. Point taken, I just wish his PvT was as good as his other matchups.

Have you ever heard the story, about the Zergling and the Probe? The Probe didn't make it across the creep.

Just hope (P)Bisu brings back the full force of his charisma and he'll be fine.
And Afrotoss be bringing back the 70s baby!

I don't understand why Korean players don't do +0 speed zealots rushes à la Kwark. It hits 30 seconds earlier before the zerg can sim city properly. Of course this build can't become standard as it would be easily countered by mass zerglings, but it's still a good build to mix in once in a while.

Thanks for the translation it was an interesting article !


I've seen some players do it, but as you noted yourself, it's too flimsy to be used as a standard playstyle. If you can hit before the Zerg can defend properly then certainly it's useful, but it doesn't transition into midgame well with the severely delayed +1...

If I recall, the first time I saw it used was Bisu vs Jaedong in the Allstars game, where Bisu destroyed Jaedong because he wasn't prepared. It became popular for like a month or so, until Kal attempted it vs Jaedong and got utterly crushed.


Nah that was definitely a +1 Speedlot attack. He moved in a bit too early, had to stall for a few seconds before +1 kicked in and then attacked IIRC

I will note that the maps appear to play a significant role in this as well - with wider entrances into bases, Z need to add additional sunkens early on. On maps where there's very little distance at all between the nat and 3rd, it's a lot harder to stop the Hydra force from building up as well.

Now that I know plu is reading these post I have decided I need to make more intelligent posts. There's a crowd out there expecting greatness from TL.

And bisu will continue to rise to power purely because of the new map, Bloody Ridge. It is the relative to Heartbreak Ridge and the destiny of the Bruce Lee Toss.

Sounds similar to the way I tried to play (with vastly less polished play of course) back in 2009. Except I suppose I was overly all-inish (not quite all in, but very close to it) in early mid game.

I like that style of play 8)

His PvT isn't awful, he just had a bit of a decision-making crisis at the end of last season. His PvT is good enough to beat any terran on his good days. Don't look at the end of last season, because that isn't a good indication of his true skill.
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

Hard to believe that the slayer of Savior over 3 years ago is at his PvZ ELO peak right now. I hope he does something good with it and wins an OSL or MSL. He needs to watch out for PvP where he is good but sometimes shaky, and PvT where he is shakey and sometimes good. He needs to avoid carriers. I think he would have faired better against Sea in the MSL Ro16 if he went Arbiters instead. As bad as it is for your meta game to go Arbiters every game, he really has no choice if he's up against a Top 10 Terran.

Yeah nice. I thought that this thread was supposed to be about Bisus innovation for Protoss strategy, not spoiling the OSL 36 round matches.
