And so TSLKiller, while offracing, saw your build and decided to use it in GSL.

Im having a hard time imaging that first warp prism going unscouted in the early game stage to a zergs base when overlords will litter the field

I pops early 6 minutes, zerg has like a couple overlords and usually they are not in a perimiter around the main, but on key highgrounds and paths throughout the map.

I suppose you could map out a very specific path for each map, but its still quite a risky manuver to pull off even if unscouted

, definately good for style points lol

What I find is that this build works for PVT. But what I find is that if the terran is good at defending his ramp, he may hold off further attacks. You can take down their expo though with this build but you yourself have to learn to back off and transition to collosi or psi storm as their medivacs are too good at regenerating their units at that point.

I have about the same amount of success with Lobber's build as my own SG 2 base build these days as zerg have figured out how to hard counter this with mass lings and banes.

Elfi took a map from Stephano with a similar build at the Assembly Winter/Asus Rog. He started with a FFE, dropped 3 sentries that only killed 2 drones at about 9:30, then made an all in on 2 bases with 3 immortals many sentries and stalkers, leaving his base at 11:00. It was on Antiga Shipyard.

Here's the VOD, the game starts at 5:44:30
Here's the replay (it's in /Playoffs/RO8/Stephano vs elfi #1)

He kind of failed his sentry drop (imo it's rare to see a sentry drop really do damage), and made his all in with many pylons instead of just the warp prism but the all in still worked like a charm. It showed the power of this allin.

I really think this is the kind of build that works well against Stephano. Since his ZvP is very good at the moment and this build managed to beat him, it's possible that pros start studying 2 base robo allins and this build becomes common among pros.

Dear Lobber,

Is this good against Stephano style roaches?
