Learn about soft and hard counters before watching or playing Starcraft. Countering isn't so direct like rock, paper, scissor

Nestea not confident in his macro it seems, going for 2 allin builds in a row

Jesus Christ are people really this dense or am I being trolled?


You're being trolled, for sure.

How is ling/hydra an all in when he still had money to expand, as well as he saw there was no colossus?

Attacking at any time without 4 bases is now an all-in, apparently.


If that push doesn't kill the opponent you're on 2 base with pure hydraling against colossus tech. That's a total all-in, that's like saying 2 base colossus timings aren't allin because you can skip a warp-in and grab a third - sure, but you're super behind for no benefit.


He could easily have retreated from a Colossus, and taken a third, and chilled.

Hell, if he had a faster colossus he could have even taken that out.


You have absolutely no way to hold the 2-3 colossus push that should be impending on your third from that position in the game. If that build doesn't do serious damage you're behind - the definition of an all-in.

No, that's the definition of a failed attack. Any attack that fails will leave you behind, duh! An allin is where you have no reasonable prospect of winning the game if it fails to deal heavy damage. Not just being behind.


I'm lost, I just described a situation where you are guaranteed to lose if the opponent does a standard timing push (by lose I mean lose your third and likely your natural a little later). That isn't just being behind O_o that's what happens when an all-in fails.

I don't agree you have no chance of holding the colossus push but anyways. I was responding to your final sentence. "If that build doesn't do serious damage you're behind" is the definition of a failed attack, not an allin. "If that build doesn't do serious damage you're fucked" is an allin.

Not taking into account that an "allin" that does guaranteed damage is simply solid play, and really shouldn't be associated with junk like scv allins.


I'm sorry I didn't say "very far behind" then, I guess - if you asked any zerg pro they would consider Nestea's position in both game one & two all-in, I'm sure.

People not understanding what an all-in is and how, in the right circumstances, they are a smart play, shouldn't mean we need to rename it.

Kind of cool that the counter to Hydras is to make MORE of the units hydras counter. Anypro is teaching us all.


Phoenixes get their bonus damage against Hydralisks. Just because Hydralisks can shoot them doesn't mean they're automatically the best way of beating them.


I'm confused. Maybe this is the next evolution of the metagame, but I"ve rarely seen anyone go spire against phoenixes, and what else would zerg be using to shoot them?

I guess against double stargate you really need the corruptors, but it's certainly been the case so far that hydras are the auto-answer to stargates.


Corrupters are like thors vs mutas in ZvT except they're not too useful unless your going against colossi. As in, corrupters stall phoenixes but can never actually kill them The only way to actually kill them imo is infestors and FG!

I think anypro was using this build : http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=202305 in the last match. It's actually really good.

Guys let's shake off/ignore the bitching.
This is shaping into an epic series and we've already seen two HUGELY fascinating metagame shifts that will surely have ladder ramifications.
Less keyboard and more popcorn I say.

idra's statement about zerg vs. protoss forge FE on this weeks state of the game, is now completely nullified :D

No offensive options for zerg? Well, next time, just ask Nestea


i want idra's comment on this.. LOL


Idra states time and time again that zerg has no offensive options without going all-in, what exactly do you think that push was? It was a 2 base hydraling all-in.

Everyone needs to stop bringing up balance and SOTG and enjoy these games for what they are: excellent reads and decision making by a great zerg who seems to totally outclass his opponent.


You're thinking about the wrong game, check above quotes to see which game we were talking about. 3 spines = all in?



3 spines at ~25 drones with a rushed lair tech and no other tech is all-in, yes. That's 300/0 and 3 drones or 450/0 and three larva, depending on how you want to look at it, at like the 5 minute mark, as well as rushed tech. Super all-in.


This is like saying cannoning a hatch first is all-in.
If you're guaranteed to do damage you can cut economy, just because you cut economy you're not all-in

God, I'm so tired of this shit
