I guess 1/1/1 is not that scary anymore, give it some time and there will be even more tactics to win vs that all-in.

you do realize in this scenario
Protoss had better control
an extremly early Nexus
big probe lead
army lead
delayed the push with stalkers
chargedlots
position
made a lot of damage with his 2 stalker zealot attack
and knew it was coming
I am sure that it will be figured out eventually - or there will be some kind of metagameshift that make this All-in less desireable

WHY would you 1/1/1 against nexus first? The cloaked banshee, I get. The 1/1/1, why?


Because a 111 will still roll a nexus first?


From my ladder experience, no. It's a hard counter. You have so many units out you can just a+move in the sieged tanks and pdd, and you'll win.


With all due respect, your ladder experience is totally irrelevant in a LR thread about a professional level tournament.

It's not a 'hard counter' either, what tech you choose is still very important.


How is it irrelevant? It's not like I'm struggling in low plat and throwing random factoids around or something. I have enough game experience to know that when going nexus first, you will have so many units after the 7-8 minute mark if unpunished that a 1/1/1 push is absolutely worthless.

Some things are relevant regardless of the skill levels IMO. Personal experience might not apply, but this is a fact: 15 nexus must be punished, or replied to by strong macro. Not by a late timing.

Can you guys stop calling any one base timing attack 1/1/1? I mean never mind 1/1/1 doesn't mean anything in the first place but how can it be 1/1/1 if there are 2 or 3 barracks.

Killer plays a billion times better AND has a huge BO advantage, and it's still almost close. Dear lord.


rofl, it wasn't even remotely close.


It said almost close. I mean Killer still had to micro to delay the push and stuff. He should've been able to a-move at that point and roflstomp.

And to people saying otherwise - a fast expo is the ONLY way to stop a 1-1-1. Otherwise you get contained and gg time.


Imo his micro wasn't particularly good and he stilled rolled it pretty significantly.
His zealots didn't even fight, they danced around in front of the SCVs for a long time while being killed before they engaged when there was almost none left.
If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.

HasuObs just owns. So good at playing and commentating. Wish he would dedicate himself more into gaming because he is really talented.

Yeah I guess it's just easier/faster to say that than marine/tank/banshee(/raven) all-in.

I don't think it matters, the context is really clear.
