How can anyone ever, EVER, cheer for zergs vs protoss when this is the kind of disgusting play they keep showing over and over? Not seeing justice prevail like tonight really does break my heart. But that's life, can't ever quit trying even though life is unfair. I'm P and I wouldn't say I cheered for Soma but his intelligence transcends race | ||

Bisu is known to play macro games and likes to get ahead early on as much as possible, so Soma decided to end the game early. Except the 2 hatch lair (weird) game (which I think Bisu should have won, to be honest) there was nothing innovative or particularily impressive about what he did - I honestly believe holding strats like that as a protoss is a really hard balancing act that's relatively easy to abuse as a zerg unless the protoss overcommits to defences and puts himself at a disadvantage in the mid game. If every Terran won most of all their games vs zerg doing BBS rushes people would get bored of that really quickly, too; Maybe that's my bias speaking here, but I tend to see zergs winning with hydra busts *much* more often than protoss holding them. Nevertheless, the series was fun to watch and the last game especially had me on my toes! | ||

For an all-in, it should be more risky for the Zerg. it is? because when protoss builds cannons and plays defensively while zergs are going all-in, it truly is an all-in. for protoss, they can spam cannons but it's not the end of the line for them. protoss players just need to stop playing greedily against an anti-greed build | ||

I thought about it right now!!! As soon as the sair is out, you make 3 or 4 cannons at your nat. By the time he arrives at zerg base the cannons aren't yet done! And if you see lair , quickly cancel them. And if you see hydra den , you let them finish! And if you cancel them you only lose few minerals ! | ||

If you make enough cannons in the dark to hold a Hydrabust blind you won't have a critical mass of Zealots to move out for a very long time and you will have to play even more defensive. At some point down this game tree your third is just a losing battle one way or another. | ||

Not even pointing at SC2 many modern multiplayer games patch the game to please balance QQ instead of giving it time to see how it evolves and solve itself over the time. | ||

These best players in the world make these amount of cannons because these are the amount of cannons that win the most when they play. Your idea is not revolutionary or complicated. Over time the Protoss trend is to make less and less cannons. This is not because Protoss players are getting dumber and dumber. It is because the benefits of making less cannons is outweighs the negatives of making less cannons. | ||
