Just go 2 base arbiters with a late 3rd. I think a 7 fac is more of a response to a 2 base arbiter build when there is no 3rd gas base for T (and 2 base arbiter is often a response to a 5 fac). This was played in ASL:

In ZvP, what's the correct timing for the 2nd and 3rd gas when going standard (3 hatch spire 5 hatch hydra)? Also, when do you throw the second evo?

I think 2nd gas comes after hydra den (around 35 supply normally or around 6:15). It's ok to get it a bit later though I think, since I've seen a lot of Korean fpvods where zerg gets it at around high 30 to low 40 supply between 6:30-7:00, especially if they took another natural as a third. Idk about third gas but usually close to 60 supply (around 8:30) is a good time. Idk about second evo but usually a bit before +1 missile attack is done so that you can get +2 missile and +1 carapace.

Edit: Close to 60 supply is more like 8:00 not 8:30, sorry. That said, if you took the third at a natural, then third gas at 8:30 or even 9:00 is ok, since you probably need more minerals to power drones and make a lot of sunkens. Also, in general, it's not super important in ZvP to hit good gas timings as it is in ZvT. I've seen many games where they get pretty late natural and third gas even when playing 3 base mass hydra style so taking gas late is better than taking gas too early.

You can't. Only staff can, and even within staff I think only a couple people work on it at all. Reach out to a staff member on Discord? Or perhaps try the Liquipedia Discord and see if there are some people who can help you there?

https://www.teamliquid.net/forum/website-feedback/57090-tlpd-feedback-thread?page=130

you can use this thread if you want to alert someone that works on tlpd, but as you can see, just because you gave a vod and a game link doesnt mean it will necessarily be done in a timely manner. Apparently the codes a bitch to use and i think only a couple people edit it.

edit: cough i wish someone would add all those games i linked to the TLPD cough

Does anyone have opinion on the balance/meta of the current ladder map pool? I would be interested in hearing which builds/strategies work best on these maps basically.

Name a match-up or something? The questions are supposed to be simple and there are 7 maps in question.

Mainly was curious about ZvP but I'm also interested in hearing about any other matchup if that is possible too.

Overwatch: I'd veto this.

Cross Game: I'd veto this.

Medusa: Backdoor Lurkers is really annoying on this map. If you have map control + Lurkers, bust the Temples and go up their high ground.

Colo: 9 Pool Sunken rush their wall. Most lower level Protoss don't know how to deal, and even if they do, their micro has to be on point to both kill the Sunken and not let Zerglings in

FS/CB/GZ: Basically standard maps.

I think the ASL should do to follow format single elimination from round of 16 (BO5 instead of BO1). They can play in 8 days or 4 days (every day 2 BO5s matchup).

is SK terran still a viable strategy? And if so are there any recent vods of it. I love that style and would like to see it executed in the modern age.

Light vs Jaedong @ Circuit breakers, ASL6


it is still viable, in fact very viable. Terrans nowadays are adding a few BCs to the m&m/vessel composition late game tho.

Does anyone have off the top of their head a VOD of a Protoss going +1 air in order to fake getting Range before Citadel/DT?
