It's the most predictable play in the world and relies on the opponent being an idiot and overmaking hydras/not getting a spire.

It's one of the only ways we can deny the third without the risk of getting caught and losing our whole army, as well as the only way to gain any map control with a fast expansion. Opening Stargate wasn't the problem here, it was that he continued to make units when he should have just made the one void ray and like 4 or 5 phoenix and then focused purely on ground army. | ||

I think MC was expecting ling/hyda and the idea is that cols kill lings and zels own the hydras. Mc cols wernt killing what they needed 2 and having no AA let all his cols die like nobodys businesses | ||

What timing? Wouldn't he just die to a surge of roaches as the 3rd was in a horrible spot? It's not unusual for the zerg to just super mass with roaches and just roll. It looked as if MC was hoping that even with an overcommitment to corrupters the zealots could cut their way through. | ||

I liked Losiras response to things though; he didn't overproduce anything, creep spread was decent, expo timing was good. | ||

"Hey, why don't I make every tech in the game on two base, while my opponent gets 4 or 5 bases and then do an incredibly late attack where I waste every unit I have".... There was no game plan there at all... Seriously. Was the templar archives worth the 3 archons? With no hope of replenishing if attack failed... stuck on 2 base. | ||
