I watched the pvz and didnt see mind control doing much for you in that game tbh. Lots of general protoss gayness though.

edit: watched the pvt as well. don't really know the matchup but it seemed to me that the terran sucked (I heard he is b- but he played bad) and got stuck with his tanks sieged up without vulture support 1 billion times and lost battles he should have won easily. Going tanks was cute and all but do you really think they were cost effective that game?


I am convinced there is some way to make good use of Mind Control. And I think the tanks were useful there. I don't think the T played worse than any of my opponents at that level.

You may be right they weren't that cost effective. I guess it is true that I could've won the same battles by making more toss stuff instead of the tanks. On the other hand, the replay showed how effective the tank/zeal/goon combo is. And there is one definite benefit of Mind Control to tanks strat the replay didn't get a chance to show: in a long game you can go above 200/200.

People think of MCing an scv and going up the Terran tech tree as an extravagant, unnecessary thing, but it's no more of a min/gas/time investment in big lategame strength than making stargates and fleet beacon or arbiter tribunal.

maelstrom........... ok guys let me give you a little tip im around b- gamer so please dont give me rediculous ideas.... I mean maybe that lx opening that he did on bluestorm but I think they get storm very late to get mael I am not sure. I am just looking for some tips to help


Actually maelstrom before storm can be viable ... I've done it before, so has lzgamer, and we've beaten good players with it. It's all about surprise factor.

kill the overlord that's giving him detection.

Oh you mean high templar.
My thinking is you might be able to hide them in a shuttle and use them ala reaver. you could also hallucinate templar maybe (hahaha) or maelstrom, which is also fun. Dark Archons are so underused in PvZ, all of their abilities rape zerg end game. Feedback defilers, Mind Control Ultralisks, Maelstrom everything else.

For those of you whom think mind control is a bad idea, consider this: Mind controlling an ultralisk, even though you get none of the zerg upgrades, is essentially a 200/200 swing (they lose an ultra and you gain one). The tech and single DA cost 450/400 I think. So if you mind control two ultra you gain a lot more than you lose. Sure it'll probably die to 8/8 crax, but at the very least it's like a super zealot.

mind controlling is good in pvz stalemates, and vs carriers in pvp. I dont think its ever worth it other than that. I guess mcing an scv in a pvt where both you and your opponent have like 15k minerals is good, but I can count on one hand out of the tens of thousands games I've played where it would have been beneficial for me.

maelstrom is often good, most definitely worth it vs mutas, imbalanced as fuck in protoss vs zerg air fights, and its even good in lategame zeal archon templar vs ultralight fights. feedback is worth it against any protoss and zerg spellcaster.

I bolded the part that implies that the opening was hydra just for you because you are clearly a complete moron. Additionally, my point about Drone was simply that you imply that anyone who told you you were wrong was some noob that you'd rape if they had the balls to 1v1 you, and Drone would RAPE you because you are a stupid, loudmouthed, shittalking noob who calls people who beat him maphackers and whines about offraces, rustiness, "I wasn't trying" etc after any losses. That guy, Valentine, who backed you up, is no better; he reset his stats in the middle of a game just because he's such a sore loser, giving me +13 pts instead of 130. You are all morons.



It's not like you can't use it against nonmutas either. And you aint B- if you can't tell when a Zerg is making 11 mutas after hydras

Seriously what the fuck is so hard to comprehend here? You're not getting maelstrom before or at the same time as storm, jackass, you're getting it for when you move out, not as some defensive shit. It serves one point, totally raping their muta sniping. Don't move the fuck out vs hydras with 1 HT. You get 3-4 HT and then up maelstrom and morph 2 dts you made earlier for harassment into a DA and move out. Stop being an impatient fuck and just wait for the correct mass.
You are crushing me like a cheese sandwich
