A mod took my post down about an abusive ANTI ZERG protoss strategy

I've already shown that Starcraft is solvable in certain situations, namely Dire Straights. I beat ANYONE on ladder. Even the top 100 ladder people could never beat me. XDS' Grr even quit as soon as I was sniping his scourge with just 1 corsair at a time.

I did lose in the $25,000 official Brood War championships in the Semi finals against someone who scouted my strategy ahead of time, and he scored a lucky shuttle kill. If you count that I went 72-1 on Dire Straights.

So why don't you take me seriously? My post was very insightful.

Mod, can I post my thread again without you taking it down?

A lot of the posters here could probably do 72-1 in public games on b.net.

Doesn't mean they're any good.

Just wondering from the last thread, how long does it take to turn the futon cannon into a bed?

Bisu does an aggressive early expand + tech at the same time. Because he does so many things, it is well known that his strategy is weak to a hydra push. My change on the strat is to not build corsair, and go toward high templar/archon slower.

If they're going hydra, just keep gooning cuz its pretty cost effective

So, is this the end of Zerg? Is there any way that Zerg can play competitively vs Protoss. The old strategy of Zerg out resourcing Protoss is not possible if Protoss gets a Nexus immediately. The timed Hydra push does not work if you goon up instead of double tech! What stops this strategy? I haven't lost to a zerg since I started using it on ICCUP, but I am still low.

I don't get why people are hating on me BanZu either.

I was just posting my credentials because a mod took another post of mine down saying I had no credentials.

I'd say this place seems sort of lame, but I met a really cool friend through here.

Anyway my other post just said: Zerg doesn't really have a good counter to Protoss fast expand + Dragoons before tech. Bisu's old build where he went DT + corsair was weak vs a hydra push. This Goon build is not weak to hydra or even muta.

Wow. FE and then Draggons before tech? That really sounds terrible and serving no end. 72-0 except that time I lost. As IRC said, I am 110-0 except for those 90 times I lost.
