Once toss get's on 3 bases, it's extremely hard to beat them,with all those tech and weapon upgrades.  edit: lol both players got dropped. | ||

If you have 2 more bases that may be enough but suddenly switching to it from Hydras? Not really viable. He would've to get air upgrades as well and the Toss just builds more Phoenixes, as well as 1-2 sentries and more stalkers. Against such a strategy you need to NOT go Hydras but actually mass Roach + mass Corrupters and engage constantly to hold his unit count low and prevent further bases to go up, But scouting that exactly isn't too easy and it's a hard decision on such a huge map. Wisdom. You don't want hydras at all, P wants to force hydras by getting Voids and then completely counter it by adding Colossi. | ||

I don't see what could have destroyed that from Zerg... if he switched to full mutas, protoss would have just warped in stalkers to clean up... You do know mass mutas+uppgrades beat mass stalkers+uppgrades right? Seriously, I've played all races alot cause I love to roll random (only manly race) there isn't any imbalance here. This is like a terran having a huge fucking Thor/Maurader mix going against a zerg with only Ultralisks and roaches. Had he NOT attacked and just built a fuckload of 3/we mutas that'd be okay. As it played out now, he ran in and died with his units and protoss pushed. It shouldve been protoss trying to push across map with mutas harassing base and/or harassing his army as they pushed across the map... instead of like now; sad skirmishes of mostly hydra/corruptors against a 200 protoss army of the biggest dpsers they have. | ||

if kyrix knew what seed / yonghwa was going for earlier, he probably would've tried to take more expos and get mutas, since mutas > void rays. makes me wonder why he tried to break it with just corruptors... | ||

And go hydras is exactly what the toss player wants to... I am so dissapointed at the z play... Not the easiest thing in the world to attack into a protoss. FF's are a good way to stall attacks. Preventing the 3rd was probably the only hope he had. | ||

It can be countered either by mass mutas with upgrades or with roaches/corrupters in 1:1 proportion. Around 30 corrupters with +2 attack destroy both void rays and collosi. And what are you going to do with 30 corrupters after that? Scout? Kyrix probably had to scout/ be more aggressive. | ||

I mean... it's not just a GOM set up or something. It never happens in the other GSL games...  | ||

It doesn't matter if you have corruptors left over because Protoss has no colossi or voids. Protoss gateway reinforcements aren't going to beat Zerg roach reinforcements. | ||

the only way to beat this is overproducing corrupters and kill all the voids/collosi and remax with roach/hydra. another possibilty which is kinda good is broodlords to tank collosus fire then having again mass corrupters with some hydra support. | ||
