With constant phoenix harrass, you have to go hydra to just have a chance to stay in the game. Zerg need to do a damn good job with there hydra and taking bases before they can crank out enough air units to counter this build | ||

Roach would be in your base before your first void ray, then just lings swarming in would kill your probes. But on this map, this looked really really strong. Its not like he didn't do the exact same thing on LT with closer positions and just changed the cannon count? | ||

Its really not that hard to beat, if you go mass muta it forces them into tons of pheonix which aren't that scary. If you expand enough and put a few spores at each base you can reach your 30 muta army somewhat quickly and take it too them hardcore style. Seems like Artosis doesn't get to see a lot of creative builds playing in Korea. On the NA server protoss has been messing with build like that for months. Props to guinea pig for throwing it out against someone who was clueless against it. Kinda reminds me of the first time I played a guy in the upper diamond echelon who went straight to carrier against me. I figured, "oh, take 3 bases and make tons of hydra, it will own him." Boy was I wrong, Mutas are the answer to protoss air. | ||

I really think Phoenix are nightmares for Z players ; it just seems P did'nt figure builds to use them or that they were not efficient enough at higher levels. This build by GuineaPig seems pretty good : prevent Mutalisks, so no map control for Zerg, no harass so the P can have his 2nd and maybe his 3rd easily ; if you go hydras, Phoenixes can control the numbers early, and Hydras will never be able to chase them properly, and later P have a good economy and we saw what happened... if you go corruptors, well, enjoy your base being raped by zealots ^^. I hope we see some early aggression against this type of build, not Nydus based. I wonder how you can scout this correctly, and how an early zergling rush can disorganize this build... | ||
