cant understand why they never make dark archons, you could try to foresee the mutas, doesnt look very hard to feel the switch or you could at least make 1 after you see them

Cuz they have trouble adapting in game, they are used to one playstyle and play it like robots. Also they are not practicing that much and that makes them even more unflexible in game.

Just throw that in here about Dark Archons: They are expensive and Maelstrom is very hard to hit. Corsairs are the better answer in most cases imho.

Are they as expensive as the need to remake HT's over and over again because they keep getting sniped?

personally i think having one or two archons would have deterred effort from going for more mutas and also saved more HTs in the long run.. but maybe thats just me

In most occasions yes because they don't do anything. It's a huge investment for something that rarely works. It looks good when it works but it's not an ultimate solution. It's too much of a coin-flip is what I'm trying to say. I think Konadora has another good point. Normal archons in decent numbers are actually a good play as well.

Actually, it isn't, you can just click on the muta flock. Also, it's "only" a 300 gas investments that completely shuts down muta harassment. On the other hand, it's basically useless if zerg relies only on hydras and skips mutalisks. That being said the DArchon is a complete niche unit. In game 4 he would've found his niche.

Corsairs on the other hand are much more flexible since they can also hunt overlords. But you need at least five of them with +1 upgrade to shut down Muta harassment and they are vulnerable to scourges.

Effort why do you hate hive tech? I feel he took too big for a risk going for pure muta hydra. If rain made more archons or corsairs he would have won.

That macro on the opening game though, Effort was off the charts, to best Rain in a macro game and to make it look easy. Amazing, I am in awe of this display.

I am shocked Rain were able to take one game to EffOrt ^^ He should be proud I think.

Btw that macro first game was sick
