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.


If ur gonna leave stalkers to defend against drops, just buy a few canons. Really its more cost effective, and the stalkers can be in the army in case they engage. By late game, the cost of a few canons is not much to the cost of losing an expo like that.


Cannons are great at reducing the places where a Terran can drop, but they are garbage at defending them. All they do is delay the drop by maybe a second before disappearing.

Genius needs to go MC style, 3 Observers, and a few Zealots in the mineral line (NOT on hold position)

Genius is playing so poorly today, first game was great but now he is just doing the most random shit :|


a few zealots + a DT are very good at deterring drops

Yeah, I don't get why he can't just have two groups of Stalkers. He seems to think his only option is putting all of his Stalkers in one base and hoping it gets dropped, then sending the entire rest of his army to deal with the rest of the drops.

I really hope he figures this out in the next five minutes. I'm tired of TvT .

Well you don't get to RO8 by being crap (unless you are Inca in which case you go all the way to the finals), but TOP is such a macro beast and drops are so effective it's making Genius look like a Diamond player.

Which lo and behold, wins games against the 1/1/1 build that virtually every Terran has been using to advance in the GSL.

Genius is a fascinating player. He can survive 1-1-1, has pretty good macro and is good with upgrades too and he can really put the pressure on terrans. BUT WTF. he cant defend drops and hates using templar even though hes going against marine heavy compositions.

If you want to use Stalkers then you need Observers patrolling around the area, otherwise the Terran just drops away from them, stims in and kills them, then kills the probes. A better way to deal with them is to leave behind Zealots then warp-in Stalkers, they take much more punishment and you don't waste as many resources when they die
