How do you deal with mass zealot + ht? I usually have a significant amount of marauders, marines, sometimes medivacs and tanks + ghosts, occasional hellions if i remember to build them. I try to emp a lot and usually I do hit a few templars, but even then zealots rip me apart. I try to kite, but it's usually pointless as chargelots kill me anyway I try to move back when the storm hits me of course, but still chargelots kill me! I have no problems with collosi, stalkers, nothing except those goddamn zealots. Is this a matter of bad unit composition? Should i go pure hellion? Or maybe ravens with seeker? But i guess feedback will deny any attempts of dropping the missile. I have tried to find some pro replays, but found none where protoss would use such unit composition. What is the key except for outmacroing the opponent? I'm ~900dia if it matters. Thanks for help in advance. | ||

Thanks for help in advance. you can kite zealots with stim and concussive shells if you time it right, other then that you can try blue flame hellions with your unit mix. | ||

First of all, thank you for the thread. Discussing with you is very helpful and fun. I watched your replays, In a replay called 'map4' you play terran versus StaineD (protoss). on quandrant delta. he goes 6 gate, expand, and just out macro you. Terrans are so slow builing units... you should construct barracks, then add the laboratory, etc... everytime I loss against high platine toss is when they out macro me with a mixed army of zelotes, stalkers, sentries and immortals. nothing I can do. If I go siege, immortals take all the damage. Ghosts ? too expensive but can be discussed. I'm glad that the patch will slow a little bit the warp gates and the zelote construction, but still they can build units very fast. What can we do against this fast-macro build as terrans ? and as zergs ? What are your principal mistakes in this game you played against StaineD which costs you the game ? Thanks | ||

Gimmicks like emp or burrowed roaches. Each race including protoss needs their niche that makes them work. Ghosts are so great and forgetting to add one to my massive push was a bad idea. As for defending it as zerg you need a great balance of when to expo; when to make units; which upgrades to get. As I've been playing zerg a lot lately I realize that zerg is the least forgiving for all these. I am looking forward to the patch as well as they mostly nurf the terran and protoss races which I feel needed playing all 3. Another problem is that he did snipe a few expo's and got his up earlier then mine so he did out macro me that game. Thanks for the compliments I hope you have fun and watch the stream! (It's coming online now). | ||

What kind of unit mix for Terran should I have done? Now that I think about it, I'm leaning towards battlecruiser. | ||
