Mutas don't do well against this. Mutas are cost-ineffecient against Void Rays. 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.


Also, if you have enough VRs hydras just dont counter them.

Not to mention the Forcefields and all the other things P has, yeah.

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.

if you have that many surviving corruptors, keep some around just to deter colo / void ray and force him to go immortal stalker templar... then have the other corruptors become broodlords!
kyrix had to be aggressive in terms of taking the map and taking advantage of his opponent turtling hardcore like that off two base.
And that's what she said.

I don't like how these maps actually can actually have an effect on the way the game plays, extra mineral patches, 1 geyser etc.

Maybe zerg should try going early 6-8 corruptors July style (on big maps like this)? That way they can snipe voids and colossi and protoss wont really have stalkers to defend them.

The problem Kyrix had was that he was pretty much maxxed on Hydras when he scouted the strategy. Needs mass air units, but can't just throw his current army away against the death ball.

I'd say his best route probably would have been to get drops and just harass with the Hydras wherever possible and make Corruptors whenever they die, while the toss is defending.

9 patches? Doesnt that nerf terran? I figure they would have less scvs due to upgrade time on orbital, and no chronoboost. I guess FE zerg it would be equally unbenificial, so a pure protoss buff I guess? Either way interresting, though Id want it to be on either all maps or none when its figured out.

1. Obviously there will be less than 30 corrupters after attack.

2. And they will still have a function to deny any further void rays or colossi, so protoss will have to switch to gateway units. After that zerg should just get mass roaches or roaches/hydras.

And yes, of cource you should scout constantly and be aggressive (denying the third) when you're facing that build.

YongHwa vs Kyrix was a case of Kyrix not seeing that style before. He waited until the army was just maxed, and THEN attacked.

Interesting to see that strat is viable on larger maps.

Yeah it's fugly :S
Feels like a 4 year old put some glitter on the map to make it "pretty".

I miss old SC1 graphics when space looked cold, hostile and barren. SC2 is more soft, round and Mac glowcolours
