It's just that I saw a weird hellionbased-expand opening by a GM on SEA and he just ran past everything the Protoss player had with like 6 hellions and destroyed his economy (as the guy was warping in his first warp in of 3 zealots, no sentries t_t) Weird expand? Do you mean like reactor hellion expand or even weirder? =O Duckville, forgot about your vids haha. I saw them back then but forgot Sickness did those colossi drops! | ||

However I do not think double forge and tc is safe, I prefer going 1forge at the same time robo is building and then going up to 5gates + tc. It highly depends on the obs scout ofcourse. Terrans usually get a very fast third cc vs it and you need to take your own third + be safe against their strong 10min bio pushes vs this so grades aren't very important imo.. really? i've never been in a situation where, after getting the first drop off upgrades wouldn't pay off in the long run. the only times this has happened are in situations where i've posted the reps and they were awkward situations. against standard tvp they can't really do anything to you while dealing with colo inYObase. if they take a fast third while you have a speed wp with a colo i've always been able to either end the game by inflicting a shit load of damage or do enough damage that i can take my 4th with no contest | ||

2 turrets make this completely unviable harass. But i like this alot to keep the Terran busy. | ||

Not even vikings are that good to stop this, since the warp prism with speed upgrade is very fast and agile. Good strategy overall, glad to see tosses changing it up a bit. | ||

It's so hilarious when their scvs run away and you get 10+ kills because they're alll lined up ^.^ | ||

I tried the fast collo warp prism a few times before but not with 15 nexus and I kept losing to timings after the speed prism gets stopped. | ||

But i like this alot to keep the Terran busy. Someone needs more than just 2 turrets to completely ward off their base from warp prism colossus harass, to the point where if they want to rely on static defense to completely protect themselves from WP+C harass, they need to throw down 4-5 which, if you scout that, signals: "Hey, I think my army is small/too weak to defend from drops, don't harass". Then you can either tech or expand since the terran threw down 400 or so resources in turrets that they can't use now. | ||

It would really make me feel better about sucking in TvP :/ Also, I'd like to know how to beat this it's really hard to lose if you get the first colo in their base. even if you don't kill much stuff, the map control/mining time advantages you get are pretty much insurmountable. I've lost a few times after getting the drop in usually after losing the WP/colo and then getting hit with a sick bio/ghost/viking timing before storm is out | ||
