Zergbro here,

If I were to scout the Robotics bay at the ~5:40 mark what would be the best way to counter the push and still leave myself open to build deviation.

aka Is there a solid way to beat the 2-2-2 without committing to a 12 min roach max?


Yes. Fast muta I believe is a way but swarmhosts as well. Roach/swarmhost absolutely shits on this build tbh.


I agree. I will definitly use the stargate variation, it seems so much more dangerous, even though it hits almost 2 later.

I'm fine with all the protoss strategies, imo. Terran strategies would be great, but anything is fine for me :D

:D
this isn't considered complaining, right? D:


Sadly I think the first T guide will be focused on a different matchup...

The one after that could very well be on such things!

I think this build is designed for a meta that no longer exists, at least on ladder. I want a guide to stop fast (15-20 min) Ultra maxes.

could have also named if the lebron james for the 21st century sc2 player but then again that would mean your have to choke at the very end of the game

This should hit before any 15-20min hive-tech window even begins to open.

From my personal experience, the mass ling/ultra build gets destroyed horribly by this as lings alone (or supported by corruptors) can't stop your army.
ModeratorProtoss all-ins are like a wok. You can throw whatever you want in there and it will turn out alright.

I was up again someone doing similar on ladder yesterday. (mass lings/bane into muta/corruptors (after failing with muta's since my 2x stargate 6phx) and into lings/ultras.)

I would say that timing (11/12mins to push out before his army (ultras) gets out of control is crucial.

My army consist of zero colo melts his army and of cos, good forcefield to prevent getting surround by bane/lings. Once his mass lings is clean up, ez win.

sentries/chargelots +2 ground/archon (i preferred DT transform into archon), phx and mass voids.

help me with my math here

the result is -2 as you take away 2 from 2 (2-2=0) and then again take away 2.
-2 is the result or the respect you get from me (in Points) when you allin me on the ladder like this.

Allins are lame.



The math is that PuMa x 2 = 2-2-2 because he is known for his very strong 1-1-1 build
