This makes the protoss play in the dark for a while until he gets obs since he has to play defensive. 3. Shows banshee to protoss: this forces the protoss to play cautious, buying Happy more time. 4. Happy needs something to buy more time, he goes for blue flames, threatening to kill probes, to keep Protoss in his base. Now this allows him to get his tanks and mech up. What went wrong? His hellions didn't keep the protoss in his base. I'm going to bet that when he practiced this, everyone he vsed just turtled due to the hellions. Mech is extremely weak early game. This means that either you need to make some bio to defend, or do something weird, like what Happy did, to negate the weak early game. What Happy did also opened up the tech tree, which is technically better than making bio units which don't do anything later anyway. Way too much explanation. What actually went wrong was that Protoss built an observer. Also, the hellions would have done a lot more damage if he split them into two groups and sent one into the main. | ||

They both have a non-standard toss style though. Perhaps not the best for practice. But they're close to top tier for sure, if not top tier for YH. | ||

Not exactly sure how his other Matchups fare though from what I've seen vT, his early game is pretty good, late game... eh, haven't seen much of. | ||

Protoss can scout the gas first because there is no marine to stop the probe, therefore he can assume either reactor helions or banshee. Getting observer from there is pretty much a necessity, otherwise you just lose to cloaked banshees. Protoss getting the observer is definitely part of the plan, thats why he didnt research cloak. The build was supposed to keep the protoss in the base because of the danger of banshees flying in and killing probes, and then transition into blue flame helions to keep the protoss in the base even longer... everything to buy time for tanks to come out. Protoss just moved out without the terran noticing and then it was pretty much over. | ||

It is the safest and most logical thing to do. Making an observer wasn't what went wrong at all, since he did anticipate the ob and made a raven. He might have thought the ob would stay at the protoss base for a bit longer by faking cloak, but apparently, the ob got too much info for too long. | ||
