What's your follow up after holding 6 pool on shakuras - given that you hold by pylon/cannon in main. I can't seem to win even though I'm defending without taking any econ damage...

That seems more complicated than a simple FAQ can cover. "How do i deal with mutas?" seems a bit too general a question.

Something covering how to deal with a 2base muta+ling opening then. Is something quite common in the lower leagues and something a lot of protoss players seem to have trouble with until they learn how to deal with it.

That is no less general than 'how to defend against drops.' The essence of the response is simply blink stalkers ---> get archons and/or storm, don't make collosi. If someone thinks that that is complicated they shouldn't be playing Starcraft.

It's definitely more general than that. The obvious answer is to get blink stalkers into archons, but there's a lot more subtleties involved. Notice how in the "how to defend against drops" section, I didn't mention any units you should get.

Just curious, is that saying those are the only ways, or only ways you know of?

Only ways that are known by the general community. I'd like to hear some more of your ideas if you have some =P. I certainly can't think of blink/charge/ht/archons/pheonix/carrier/mothership working.

What about VR/HT vs BL/Infestor? Most BL/Infestor combos don't go hydra due to the already high gas cost of both BL and Infestors, so with HT to nullify the threat of Infestors which will be their only AA it gives your VRs free rein.

Incredibly good post. Would be nice to see some of the timings for scouting put in (like, what to are key times to scout Z/P, what you're looking for). A lot of new players really struggle with knowing what they are looking for at that crucial 4-7 minute range where your opponent is choosing his tech and style of build.

For dealing with roach/ling after one gate FE, it says to get twilight council after nexus. My understanding was that you should get a TC before nexus. Dark shrine takes a LONG time to build (as long as a nexus, in fact). If you start teching to DTs after nexus, there is a timing window where he can kill your nexus before you have DTs.

Thanks for this post. Slight correction: in the part about defending 2port banshee, I believe you meant to type "cut probes", but you instead put "cut scvs".
