its not that you have to do a 2 base all in , the good thing with this is that you dont commit to an all in because you can scout before you decide to stay 2 base.[G] PvZ Anti stephano style build by EmpireMista - Page 2

Just roach corruptor into remax with roaches with some spines should hold this off easily. User was warned for this post | ||

Switching from 3 base roach/ling max into mutas is very difficult. The Zerg player will have absolutely no gas banked and only be on 4 geysers. They would have to be very quick in determining that the protoss is not taking a third and is going colossi. Even then the zerg's only chance would be to base race because there's no way you're going to defend that push without fungal/spine/corruptor, it doesn't matter how many mutas you have. The protoss sits in base massing units and then a walks with colossi across the map. The zerg has to identify what you're doing(which is not easy), make the correct decision to completely deviate from their strategy and then defend well with fungal/spine/corruptor. Far superior zergs constantly lose to terribads using this strategy so I would say it's quite effective. | ||

Roach/corruptor generally, and especially in this case, gets murdered by death balls. The absolute only way to defend it in this situation is with fungal/spine/corruptors. | ||

Just please add a [G] Tag, so it'll be easier to find in the future. This is extremely powerful push, designed to crush maxed roach-ling army. 4 colossi, blink, 3-2 grades... it's gonna hit as hard, as a sledgehammer to the face. | ||

I am wondering: how do you deal with roaches run bys? | ||

If you accidentally put too much into a roach based army earlier in the game, you simply can't gather enough resources to stop it afterwards. It's incredibly frustrating. ZvP is so boring. | ||

i got a m8 who makes the so called "YuffFe". the build has two variantes ( A and B ) http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Gate_Nexus_YufFE if he scouts early gas he take makes Variant A and makes a forge. If he scouts no gas he makes variant B, where he immidiatly takes a gas and makes core to produce stalkers and always keeps attacking with them.it forces SO many lings and he can scout what the zerg is really up to. without speed the zerg should hardly be able to secure the third without staying on 35 probes till the 8 minute mark. with this agressive style the 11-12 min maxout will be slowed down to about 14-15 minute-maxout which means you can take a quick third ( 9 minutes, if possible ) And be able to totally secure it with units. And: if he maxes out with roaches you will have immidiatly a force which can CRUSH it which wins you the game. so much on theory.. stalker + zealot harass ( up to 3 stalkers i think in the end of the harass ) is not very easy to do.
