Omg... Did you know that cost equivalent Vikings beat broodlords with 100% Vikings remaining?!

Point being you shouldn't be trying to compare a unit to it's counters for cost, no shit it will lose. Mm beats ultras, duh. Archon+stalker is a bullshit test because it's a unit composition designed to beat the single unit... A more fair test would be ultra hydra vs stalker archon, for example.

Edit: the late game units are more designed for supply efficiency over cost efficiency. Yes marines beat bc, ultra, carrier, anything for cost, but for supply they are hilariously inefficient.

try this:
1p
2z

-p cannon rushes and then goes pure probes + feed, possibly take another nexus. Chronoboost probes, build assims for the zerg allies and share control.
-both z make early enough pools to help the cannon rush, then one techs his way up to ultras while the other builds a roach warren, the $$$ from the protoss should pay for everything

It works great cuz a cannon + ling rush will always either kill an enemy or cause him to lose some economy - the problem is that usually the toss tries to tech up to warpgates and dies before he can manage it. Doing it this way, your team as a whole ends up spending practically nothing on buildings and is still able to pump out 7 roaches per inject and eventually a load of ultras.

The zerg who doesn't go roaches can choose between nonstop speedlings -> ultras or droning up a bit, I'd probably recommend lings to keep up pressure but making an additional hat and a few drones might be decent too.


Could replace one of the zergs with a terran, who doesn't need feed. Then the remaining zerg player gets all the feed from toss so he can afford pure roach -> ultra without wasting larva on drones.
