I'd like to ask a question. How much damage done after 5pool is enough so that you're still ahead if you go overlord -> a few drones -> expand to nat? He didn't seem to do that much and was still way ahead. For example, if you get 2 cannons and defend with probes for a while, and the Z kills maybe 5 probes, is the Z ahead?

Id say it depends on how many probes the Protoss cuts in order to actually get the cannons up but I would say that if they kill 5 probes then its probably about even, any less your behind, and more and it should be a fast gg

Yeah, I'm wondering if Shuttle has even bothered to watch any of the other PvZ games on this map so far because it didn't seem like it there. Luxury didn't even have to make use of the second entrance to win that..


well, if you can read Korean you could see that he asked the referees to not start game for an additional minute so he could check the map preview.

yes won 1 game against an average progamer Z with 4 gate push. But against high tier Z such pushes will be defended. Still not enough to convince.

A lot of recent maps have pretty narrow chokes so that 2 zealots and 3 probes can hold out for quite a bit.

Tears of the Moon not only has the back entrance, but even the front entrance is ridiculously wide, preventing a full block by just a couple of units.

Yeah, Medusa has a narrow choke. As does Byzantium 2. Destination too. And Chupung Reyong definitely has a narrow choke and no back entrance either. It must be just a funny coincidence that you would have a Protoss icon.


What does my protoss icon have anything to do with it? I'm just responding to you saying that Luxury's tactic would've worked on most maps, when it's obvious that Tears of the Moon is an exception to other recent maps. Hence, there is some map factor involved.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Shuttle was an idiot, because he should've either gone one-base strategy or build a ton of cannons if he wants to FE on the map.

Since what you said was obviously false... And I just gave a list of recent maps with non-narrow chokes and back entrances(considering protoss FE)


Sorry, I misspoke when I only talked about the width of the entrance. But rather, what sets Tears of the Moon apart is rather the location of the expansion, which prevents the protoss from funneling all units to a single choke. Maps like Destination may have wide chokes, but you can cut off one side so there's only one point of defense.

You can't do that with Tears of the Moon because then you won't be able to protect the expansion AND prevent the runby up the ramp at the same time.

Edit: Want to add that I have no clue what the "optimal" FE positioning is for this map, so I could be wrong. Just commenting on what Shuttle did. Probably the optimal FE position hasn't been invented yet, or doesn't exist.

Alright, standard FE is officially dead in tears of the moon. Looks like toss have to play defence all game and expand while making zerg lose units at offense.

There is no map preview for obs maps -__-. And he already played vs Hiya on the same map and Shuttle used same FE sim city as bisu cept later 2nd canon.

I'm terribly sorry if my perception is not up to your standards. He played like garbage in those games so I wouldn't have had a hard time believing it was his first time on them.

wtf guys, these are progamers, they play for 8-12 hours a day. Do you think they are playing sunken defence in that time or what? You can be pretty sure that every progamer has had a ton of games on all current league maps...

He's welcoming you to Romania because he's from romania and regular non-romanian people don't get his logic.

On another note, I don't get why Protosses complain so much about FE on that map. Silver once said "FE is a privilege, not a right." Now it may not necessarily be a privilege, but it's a trade-off. If it's a bad trade, then don't do it.

I don't want to derail the thread so I'm not going to get sucked into a long argument here, but in response to this:

"Seriously?" usually denotes skepticism or disbelief. I only considered it because he seemed to have absolutely no idea what he was doing against Luxury so I was wondering if he might not have had time to practice the map because of something else that I wasn't aware of (Winners' League, personal issues, etc.). That's all I'll say on the issue.
