zerg were complaining about 2 base protoss. I just had a ladder game, the zerg was on 2 bases and just keep sending roach, lings and infestors at me. stop saying templar can stop infestors when they are so high up the tech tree.

Hey listen

We can go Void rays which are defended by spores in the mineral lines

Dang JYP trying everything protoss hasn't been doing and is getting torn apart.

after that initial skirmish with blows on both sides DRG was a fair bit ahead, JYP just didnt manage to make a comeback

I think there was a zergling counter to his main when the sentry drop happened and killed a tonne. A better sim-city would have probably won held that.

JYP's simcity was good enough, maybe if he had walled off completely it would have been better but with that many lings I wonder

lol i know right? Protoss doesn't have good units to harass and defending units are just to expensive. While zerglings are so cheap and cost effective

Check out Losira vs Genius three seasons back or something. Back then people said, see infestors suck. Look at them now LOL

well , infestors were buffed


They've always been good though. The buff just made people try them more.

I've always thought they were good, but there's no denying they're 20x better now

And that is why you dont bother with warp prisms, lol


The build was fine, his simcity wasn't.


Warp Prisms are a good unit, people do use them but.... they simply simply arent effective enough to change any meta game. fix? spore crawler near ur ramp in ur base.. ez. warp prisms are good, but they arent the Protoss heros.


DRG had a macro hatch in his main.

Not all zergs do.

If he did not, he would have lost his main and tech buildings before the sentries energy ran out. But with 2 hatches pumping lings he was not able to do enough damage.


To be perfectly honest, I always make my macro hatch OUTSIDE my main for the exact opposite reason.

so that when they forcefield my ramp from outside my base I have reinforcements outside.

but damn now I need macro hatches everywhere.

or just a spine/spore covering both sides of my ramp.

Go BW style and only go macro hatches without Queens.

Actually, I tried that in a 2v2 against AI, going pure Ling. Lost embarrassingly, against AI even though I was with a pretty good human ally. Learned the hard way that Lings suck without support.

Anyways, good show from DRG. It's always a pleasure to see him play. I even liked some of JYP's stuff as well. Always great to see under-used storm drops pop up in any game, evoking memories of BW.

Thats why a lot of the pro players wish toss had better harass units. but idk, maybe templar drops haven't fully explored yet.

HT drops are sick because they don't cost much beyond the initial investment (assuming you don't lose the prism), the problem is HTs+storm+prism usually only come out when Zerg is saturated.

This is made even funnier by the fact that DT follow ups are really common after StarGate fails from some pros. My mind always turns to mush when that happens. I guess the default strat from Protoss when they're way behind is to go DT and hope they fluke a win.
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?

Hopefully we get 2-3 new units in HotS so we can use something else :p And to be fair, he defened with spores, spines, queens and lings. It wasnt just a handful of lings

I know right? I watched this day9 daily about 'forcing' your enemy in a certain direction one time, and I think this is the perfect application. Force spores > go dts.

It does, if you commit hard enough, and know just when to stop.

See: Day9's daily about MC's PvZ. Watching this revolutionized my PvZ record. Made me go from "how to I win this matchup" to "EZ". Stargate's pretty good, if you know when and how to do it.

That was a really nice storm drop. I don't understand why I don't see that more.


Because it almost cost him 250/150 for 4 drones?


If you don't lose the Prism it pays for itself over time, also he killed a bit more than 4 drones.


It was like 5 at most. And the warp prism left with 30hp left, assuming he lets the shields charge back up thats a 70hp unit with 0 armor. It's not gonna be that useful again.

Yes because the one drop only killed 5 drones, storm drops could never ever pay for its cost right?
storm drops could be insanely effective!
