EPTWhen I see a warp prism I get roach burrow movement just for the prevention of Protoss being stupid with force field on the ramp.
And a spine or two at each base, depending how my economy is doing.

I would just like to know how relevant this strat is in today's metagame for PvZ? We don't often see professional players do this kind of build in major tournaments, so that leaves me to think either two things: 1. They know that their opponents will potentially have the ability to easily shut it down, and 2. It isn't that strong anymore. All I'd like to know is whether this build can still be pulled off with moderate success these days. Blink stalkers are one of my favourite units to use in the PvZ matchup so it would be obvious that I am interested in this kind of strategy. I've never really tried something like this (I'm quite new still with toss, since I switched from Terran recently) and would definitely like to incorporate it into my play. All I need is some relevant tips on how to do it in today's metagame. Of course I will still be viewing the uploaded replays. Thanks in advance. a problem with this tactic is the possibility of a counter attack on a map like shak, it is quite easy to defend the counter attack with a few sentries and cannons on a map like shattered temple, it is significantly harder in addition to this, the current metagame for pvz on the zerg side is often mutas in the pro scene, a lot of openings include stargates to deter muta play or they do a two base timing attack that hits when the zerg has very few muta this kind of push, if timed well, would hit a bit after mutas come out i think and mutas could trash your base while this occurs so pretty much the strat is still very effective you just have to be careful of counter attacks, especially muta counter attacks | ||
