Yup, I do that crazy 4gate in 2v2s, it's pretty awesome. But I'm not sure how it holds up against the 111.

The 20 second warpgate nerf was meant to effect PvP, but it was a HUGE (and retarded) setback in the other matchups. Didn't fucking fix PvP either. 4-gate --> slightly slower 4-gate. Sounds fine to me! [/sarcasm]

Perhaps, but if you 1gate FE and have an overwhelming economy advantage, plus the fact that the siege tanks are actually a negative factor vs a charge zealot heavy army as they deal as much damage to themselves and marines as the zealots, I think my argument has legs. Yes they can't hit banshee, but a banshee in low numbers doesn't thin zealot numbers very much and a stalker warp in after the battle is usually enough to deal with the left over air.

Mass Zealot doesn’t work if the terran just bunker pushes and sets up a choke.

The only thing that was fix by Finfextor buff was the unbeatable VR Colossus ball. These games make me sad. I hope Blizzard don't nerf fix this in the wrong way, making stalker too powerfull, or making raven be use even less. Don't know if you know this but.. The Roach got a range buff (this was the most helpful Zerg buff imo), Warp Gate got several pretty huge nerfs, Spore Crawlers got a nice buff (this was instrumental into dealing with Stargate openings), the Infestor buff comes into play against deathballs AND remember the buff regarding fungaled Blink Stalkers? Let's not forget the cannon increase time, the Zealot build increase time, the HT nerf (this was mostly for PvT). All the while we've gotten what, a Phoenix build decrease time and a Sentry build decrease time that only affects pre-Warp Gate tech, both of which are barely used? You guys complained for almost an entire fucking year and you got what you wanted, now people are laughing at us for complaining about one build? A build that makes SC2 extremely unpleasant to watch? I couldn't care less how it affects me in ladder, I only care because I keep seeing Protoss players getting mercilessly slaughtered in GSL which is meant to be the epitome of SC2 skill. I don't disagree with protoss saying this 1/1/1 thing is BS. But telling people that zerg didn't figure out anything and just got buffed is the reason that PvZ is what it is right now ( and using that to think that they should get buffed / terran nerfed ) is laughable. :/
So you don't mind if those Zerg buffs and Protoss nerfs are reverted in the next patch then? What's laughable is that you think those buffs and nerfs have no impact at all.

The key difference between that 10 gate, and the 1-1-1 is that a 10 gate can be presumably held quite easily if scouted by using bunkers. Whereas currently not even a supposed blind counter (game 2) can hold the 1-1-1.

Maybe slow zealot, phoenix, sentry, immortal would work? Just hope he doesn't have a ton of marines.

Indeed, that is probably the major issue with mass zealot, but otherwise it would crush the ground portion of the army. The issue with 1-1-1 is the amount of variables.... With or without cloak With or without raven With or without Stim (or Combat Shield) ...all of these can be stopped but require perfect scouting maybe because they require different responses.

You can't ff ramp infinitely long because of cloak banshees. With warp prism and sentries for FF I'm going to make the assumption you have very little stalkers to hold the ramp. why would cloaked banshees (rare in 1/1/1 allins anyways) stop you from forcefielding the ramp over and over? why wouldn't you have enough to kill some banshees?
Sentries eat up the gas for stalkers? Doesn't it?

That works some of the time I guess, depends how wide the entry point is for the charge zealots, if zealots go head first they'll probably suffer some horrendous casulties, the way Nada did his 1-1-1 was he just built 1-2 bunkers and they buffered brilliantly for the tanks and drew the charge. I think if the maps allowed a bit more distance between the bases it would be probably be easier to intercept, the problem really is the shocking amount of marines the terran is able to produce relative to zealots. You can either compromise building stalkers to get zealots, but it really leaves you with too little surface area if you do charge into a corridor or a choke.

like 3 phoenix, 2 immoral, 2 sentry shouldn't be a ton of gas. Add more as time goes by. Completely ignore stalkers because they aren't great against any of the terran's unit comp.
