The one who always wants to call others whiners even when there's none going on? Is 'That Guy' the one you mean?

They just finished up MLG last night and that was on the East coast of the United States.

Give them a day at least to travel back and recover.

Genius, when you have a stargate, please make a phoenix to prevent drops. Please?

Have you seen MC vs Puma? Phoenix doesn't work as well as you might think to defend drops, you need way more than 1 or 2 phoenixes to prevent the drops, otherwise the medivac has time to drop his marines and kill the phoenixes. You need to invest a lot in phoenix in order to do so.

lol, youre comparing dts to medivacs? lol.


No, i'm just saying generalizing stuff like this is bad. Protoss has stuff that annoys terran as well, it works both ways

People, leaving like 3 stalkers at your base instead of your main army wont make your army like half times weaker. just leave them to stop drops.

Why did he let that happen over and over again?

Oh the drop is gone over the cliff; there's no way he'd drop again, that's too obvious!

To be fair if that same engagement had happened with a Stalker/Collosus/Sentry ball instead of Zealot Archon, the result would have been just as lol worthy as that was but roles reversed.

That was just a bad place for a battle to take place.


not really, with stalker/colossus/sentry you cant hold many attacks genius defended, stalkers in ht archon zealot composition is just EXTREMELY BAD

Except for the one where he killed the 4 sentries with max or close to max energy? Or the last engagement where he lost like 5 units? Or was it the muti pronged drops that did mass damage? He lost 1 engagement.

I mean, if Genius wanted to finish the game with only chargelot + archon composition, then he should've done it right after he warped in 6 archons with his stacked gas...

Well not only that, but if you have that many archons, Terran is able to only pump medivacs instead of worrying about vikings for your colossus. That's why I think it would be better to go colossus into archon after they die, then they have a bunch of floating vikings (read: less medivacs) and your archon/chargelot can come in to save the day.

I thought Genius surely had it after beating the huge MMM with pure zealots and stalkers... Sigh. Genius surely knows/plays better than that but somehow he lost his cool with the annoying drops. I'm really rooting for Genius here, especially after the 1st game and the amazing engagement in game 2. (Not the last engagement)

At least the remaining maps are less T friendly, so here is hoping.

I was more specifically referring to the way in which the choke controlled the battle.

Protoss needs to get rid of the mentality that chokes are good for them when using Zealot Archon. Zealot Archon is like roach ling, Terrible in chokes v AOE. If you're going to go Zealot Archon, play like Zerg and engage in open spaces. Do flanks and try to get surrounds ><
Go go Alliance.

Phoenixes do well to catch dropships en route rather than at your doorstep, and if you see them you can warp in 3-4 chargelots to deal with it and have the phoenix chase the retreating medivac. While 1-2 will be hard to make, it can. 3-4 is easier.

Maybe I've been spending too much time in the 1.4 PTR Notes thread... but do you read these forums?
