well, elky did not use any "new" strat at all, i think main reasons for winning were old fashioned
a) more res
b) better macro
c) better micro
=> win

You can't win just comming out with a vult army but since you have so many vults if they leave ONE opening, say they leave their expo at another main open for a second, you can run in with 24 vultures, he can have 3 cannons or whatever and you can kill everything including the nexus before goons have the possibility of running up that ramp and protecting it. Ive been playing mass vult strat for a long time without dropship and yes, I'm not good but it's very very effective and I was surprised pros didn't use vults as much before. Ask gosexyperli (where are you, haven't seen you post in a while)

Elky showed gosu TvT during wcg but he was overconfident with his TvZ coz he thought he had no serious danger in that MU, all of his TvZ were very mediocre in fact, the game vs kheir was superclose and vs that taiwanese guy he had the game so much in the bag but he failed to secure a 2nd expo (probably thinking he wouldn't need one as he was raping his opponent's main base and natural)

Totally off topic but i've watched the games Testie vs forU and they kick ass, forU = perfect templar ^^ that made me think that many foreigners suck at PvZ because of their sloppy micro (of course compared to korean pros)

That's not the biggest difference between foreigner pvz and korean. From what i have seen, almost all foreigners (with the exception of draco) leave units behind in pvz and are not fighting at maximum potential all game. The games I play really well are the ones where i constantly bring units to battle and constantly pressure. Unfortunately that happens inconsitently.

well 4 tanks and 132 vultures can hardly be called a conventional TvP.

aldaris's voice is so sexy he can scout me anytime

yeah but baal it's not 5 vults, it's more like 12-24, and 12 can take down 2 cannons, and once they breach that ramp reinforcements aren't oging to make it up there for like 30 seconds, enough to rape every probe and POSSIBLY kill the nexus, seriously.

obviously its not an autowin strat nor is it even uber strong, but I'm a big fan of it and have won many tvp on pure vult -_-
