This.
I don't understand why Protoss don't go Corsair/Reaver often anymore... it's all ground army now... Now all the Protoss players went 1-2 corsairs, then ground army. No harass whatsoever. Isn't the corsair the unit that's what started this revolution? Harass the economy, and then roll them with superior Protoss macro... Seems like Muta sniping H.T became the norm because Corsairs aren't utilised as much anymore
Thoughts?

didnt pay off...wow...ur another one that sees harass in terms of pure numbers. sure, all the money that movie spent to kill say 7 drones was probably way more than 350 minerals (7x50). but those are DRONES ur talking about. ie larvae. ie time. ie late buildings/units. ie less minerals. 7 drones is like half the saturation of one zerg base. if u really dont think harassing in PvZ pays off, why do you think the pros OPEN with strategy that aim at harming drones?
im not saying that his harass won him the game, like that 12 kill scarab against hero. im saying his economic damage gave his macro a huge advantage over zero's. deny that and u dont understand PvZ

The flank looks even worse in the replay He funneled the hydras through the small choke instead of using 2 chokes :/ Sigh Zero

there's a reason why InDove is considered the greatest player of all time.

Not to mentioned Movie was pretty much on an all in 2 bases play not even trying to set up a 3rd.

He only killed like 6 drones... thats nothing, Zero replaced them like instantly

Rewatching battle in middle:
Epic fail.
Flank was late and slow, lurkers all clumped together at choke, and mutas came after all zerg units were gone. Terrrible.

You lose your shuttle with 2 reavers in it you are so totally fucked. Movie save his reavers despite not doing any damage so Zero couldn't do a counter and break his front.

I really can't tell if you're trolling or not. Would you really trade 7 larvae (generic zerg units, like 7 hydras, for example) for a shuttle, 4 zealots, 2 high templar, and 2 dark templar?

I think he's just saying it wasn't as successful as it could've been; the fight in the center was definitely a bigger deal.

It looks like PvZ Storm drops are getting more and more popular

yeah movie's shuttle, in it's first visit to zero's main, flew THROUGH two scourges. If he had lost that shuttle zero would probably have won.

Movie did NOT win with corsair/reaver. He won with reaver/ground army! The harass he did was much later with storm shuttle. Did you see how easily Zero deflected the actual corsair/reaver?

Probably because he spends all his time looking at the battle and microing his units.
