It didn't work because of the rocks, not because of the stalkers. In PvZ you have like 3ish minutes from when Zerg starts mining gas to when they can have speed for their zerglings. That means you have 3 minutes before they can surround your stalkers and you have a lot of time to deal damage. His opening was great, but he forgot about the rocks. TLO played well also.

Pretty sad how the only reason you lose a game is because there is a stupid back door... gg blizz maps.

That's the risk you take using a build like that when the backdoor exists. Pretty simple really.

that Kiwikaki build would have meant a GG without the backdoor rocks on blistering sands.

How the fuck is that a good comeback? I'm so confused at that game lmao.

Right at the beginning when the 2 stalkers came out for Kiwi, there were 8-10 lings hitting the rocks, if he just ran those lings in, instead of hitting rocks he would've killed so many probes making the game time be cut in half.

He didn't use those lings to defend or do a ling runby [ when warpgate research wasn't finished ] and there were only 2 stalkers on the entire map. I mean granted you are distracted by the expo attack but wow that was some mindblow @ TLO not using those lings at all and just letting them hit the rock instead of running straight into the open ramp.

There's a massive difference in stalkers with & without blink. Without blink they fail miserably vs zergling masses. Quite a zany all-in by KiwiKaki cutting probes just to mass stalkers. Didn't like this play.

quite a few judging by the thread


if he hadnt kill the rocks kiwi wouldve had a easy cruise.


stalkers are insanely good vs Z since outside of mass speedlings they do well vs pretty much evrything.

Yeah, the thing is that you have to play according to the map, not doing what you do in any map

That kind of build from Kiwi would have owned someone like Idra, but TLO is just so good at adapting to crazy shit


Dont be naive, the only reason TLO won that game is because there was a backdoor on that map, if there hadnt been a backdoor kiwi would have had a huge advantage
