Yeah I'm not sure he would've gotten the cannon down anyway, probably would have and killed a few lings/drones but still not worth the 450 investment.

Typically when I pool first on 13 or 14 I can get the lings out before they do the wall-off (assuming they wall after I place a hatch at 16).


How do you hatch on 16 and then get your pool on 13 or 14? Kill of some drones?


What?

14 pool 16 hatch...

If they wall after I place the hatch @ 16 (which White-Ra did in this case) I can get the lings down, kill a pylon (with help from 3 drones before lings pop), lose a couple drones/lings and be okay. Investment worth it since the Toss' Natural Nexus comes up so late...

I don't know if you can say Ret is in destruction mode based on those two games.

The first game Ret counters Whiteras Warpprism/zealot/fast 3rd play perfectly with mutas and the second game Whitera just basically auto lost as soon as his pylon/cannon contain failed.

TT1, what do you do when you see mass muta?


popular belief is phoenixs but i dont like to do that, if u cant hallu scout with phoenixs 24/7 then u should go stargate cus u always have to be ready for a mut switch but if u scout correctly(which ill admit is hard) then u can hold it with blink stalkers + cannons(u need an early 3rd tho) while making an op army(cus mut comps are extremely weak obv), the key is being ready for the transition beforehand.. if u get caught off guard then ur pretty much fucked

I've held it off quite a few times with blink stalkers, archon, cannons etc and built up to a deathball. But the zergs always just go for a basetrade if you move out to take another base or attack. Doesn't matter if your army is stronger than his with zerg bases all over the map there's almost no way to win a basetrade .


theres actually no way to win a basetrade, just gotta mass cannon + sentry to hold the counters but the problem with that is that it puts ur econ so far behind which makes ur 200 200 push sorta allinish, and if the z chooses not to basetrade with u and just engages ur army that makes for alot of wasted mins on static d =/, ur obv gonna win the 200 vs 200 engamgents vs the z but by then hes usually on 4-5 bases and has enought econ to max out 2-3 times so they eventually manage to whittle ur army down

This.

I think the best way to beat a muta zerg is to punish him with a gateway heavy army right before the mutas pop.

However, there is no way to know if he is going muta, roach/hydra or infestor/ling until you're actually knocking on his door.

White-Ra should've practiced on the map, no? It's not someone else's responsibility to say it.

Although on the ESL website they should really note what changes they've made to the regular maps.

It's definitely his responsibility to figure it out, especially if that version is ESL, which he should know. I mean, he knows you can't do that on most tournament maps, only ladder still allows that kinda thing to happen.
