Really guys come on. DT expand still puts you behind if you do no damage with it, which is why it has been declining in popularity in Korea. No it's not, if anything it's seeing an increase in popularity again since the Archon buff meaning Zealot/Archon timings are an excellent follow up, as well as the fact that if he goes all out to Raven you can morph archons and still have a powerful defensive unit. It's the same for anything though, I open blueflame drop or cloaked banshees and don't do damage while my opponent goes 1rax fe? I'm behind! DT's have the advantage of making it a nightmare for the Terran to move out even if they fend off the actual harass well, it's a good opening
That was popular for a few weeks after the buff, but most Terrans in televised matches (speaking primarily of GSL here) have shut that opening down. It's an archon plus chargelot timing, and it's so predictable that terrans just build supply depots in locations that disrupt the chargelots when they see the early DT, then build more marine/ghost than marine/rauder.
Archons are quite expensive when made from DT's. Now that it's a known build, it's not cost efficient without doing at least some free damage with the DT's.

You're not fooling anyone Painuser.

While you're waiting check out the other stream; Jinro vs Choya game 2 is playing out right now on metalopolis, same builds same maps same pylon positioning, and "Jinro" has held the voidray.

Even if they do no damage, the DTs turn into archons which become the core of your army.

He scouted the rax-expand though, no?

Just like Jinro skipped detection?
Banshees cant be turned into archons. They don't have unlimited cloak. If a terran goes only 1 rax 2 gas which u can scout its gonna be bansheese 9/10 times where protoss is could be 3 gate, robo tech, dts, voidrays. Plus, if ur going standard ur gonna get a robo, engineering bay is for upgrades a little later on.

No, Choya knows the build Jinro was attempting and countered it. Yes, Jinro could have had an e-bay and turrets but then he would have to cut back on SCVs, marines, and the rest. Choya knew he would be safe for at least an effective harass. He was expanding behind it in case Jinro was able to get up turrets to detect the DTs. As others have said, it's not like Jinro was itching to attack when Choya's DTs came - Jinro was doing a practiced build meant to include ghosts and/or other high tier units and Choya simply out-strategized him.

its absurd not to.. Again as zerg don't play terran or protoss, but cloaked banshee's are some of the stupidest thing I face. For starters they can run away alot easier then a DT can, if you do not prepare for cloaked banshee you are fucked just like if you don't prepare for DT's.
I would rather face DT's then cloaked banshee's even with detection, cloaked banshee's can be such a pain because they fly.

No, cause he wouldn't have done that if he saw any of that. Choya sees a fast expand, builds DT shrine. Doesn't see fast expand and builds 2 more gates or responds accordingly. Scouting dude.

It wasn't an all in, because even if the DTs failed, Choya whould've still had a lot of map control.

It was absolutely cheese, when you warp in 3 DTs it's completely all in. There was no way choya could have protected his "expansion", it was just part of the deception. It would have been cheese if Choya somehow pulled his probes with the attack or something. If the DTs failed utterly, he could have tried to get a wall or at least a few cannons at his natural and build up more zealots/stalkers before transitioning into whatever. Going fast DTs and attacking with them is not cheese - it's just a form of pressure. If DTs failed choya would be dead with zero chance of recovery. Going fast 3 DTs is absolutely cheese. There is a DT expand build that's somewhat stable - but this isn't anywhere close to that.
He had no raven so how the hell would he move out? Exactly. Something you probably don't understand. It's called "map control". Gonna stop arguing with this retard
