How to play late game pvz on FS?

To take bases, just lots of cannons, zealot block for ramp (just 2 on hold) with 1-2 hts for storm. For compositions, not 100% sure what is ideal, would say it depends on what the zerg is doing. I believe a goon+archon+hts is pretty good against crackling+ultra combination. Can always add reaver into that mix depending on how gas you have. Archon+reaver+hts is one crazy combo late game against cracklings+ultras. Could be wrong though so someone correct me if that's the case

make more gateways. Your army is more valuable than the zergs, so think before commiting it. it has to be a good reason. If you can handle them a couple reavers in a speed shuttle are very supportive with your army. move away from that dark cloud and engage elsewhere.

- Deal with drops. you can either cannon a bit your main base, or make a bunch of corsairs, but you must keep them in order.

- Deal with ling expeditions to your 4th 5th base(s). Cannons alone will not be enough. Close the gaps, use the space to your advantage. make tight chokes and shit. reavers, high and dark templar all work well.

- mine that gas. you will need it.

Well my question is if this ghost timing could even exist, with a standard obverser timing or would it just be too late.


Watch this. It definitely exists.

Well the robo-obs is already done in the first part of the vod and Boxer is nowhere near getting ghosts.

What was the game #2000 in OSL? Was it indeed the famous FBH - Jaehoon game? Notice the sign "winner 2000" here:
and lack thereof here:
games were played at the same day.

yes its that fbh vs jaehoon game, just watch the first 40 secs of the vod to see the "flashback" from beginning, to the 1000th game, and then to the 2000th

Sounds like a Sero related error. "Sero attempted to play brood war, does not compute. Please try again."

As for East I played on East today no problem.

This is kind of a weird thing. You have to click the right spot to get your workers to gather from the appropriate assimilator. Clicking them slightly above the gas geyser you want usually works pretty well. The three middle geysers on each side on need two workers each, whereas the top and bottom ones still need three workers.

Just right click your hatchery, nexus, or command center on the minerals and your workers will start auto mining.

It depends on which geysers have refineries on them. I've found that if you always build from the top down you never have problems.

Neomedusa is one of the best maps for T/T teams in 2v2 because it is a three-player map. This means that you can only have one opponent spawning, making crushing them a piece of cake. Have one of your players on your team send an SCV right away to your opponent's base. This SCV should build a barracks on the high ground above their minerals. Harass their workers with marines while your ally goes mech. You can also build a barracks outside of their base and float it into their base, because you'll automatically know where they've spawned.
