Stalkers take forever to kill hellions and Terran gets off full scouting and some probe kills. But it obviously is realllllllly weak in the start. Ah ok I see. So it basically works off the assumption that Toss is fast expanding and cant deny the early harass... kind of like the way Strelok just lost lol. | ||

He defnitely suspected what was happening. On October 03 2011 12:45 tuho12345 wrote: wtf FE into double hellions ? He think Protoss is that fragile in early game or what? Zealot isn't Zerglings man It sees a lot of use on Tal'Darim because of how wide the ramps are, you can get hellions into the main and be a real nuisance for the Toss. He just played excessively greedy and was punished by Elfi. | ||

Poking with 1 stalker is like the most basic move in this and he doesn't even have a bunker up in time. Elfi chrono'd out the first stalker. A greedy toss opening early expo stalker would be later and the hellions would be out in time. Strelok didn't realize how fast Elfi was getting out that stalker, and even once he saw the first stalker he didn't know there was a 4gate behind it. Smart play by Elfi. | ||

Dude, one scv got killed by the stalker so he saw that in plenty of time. What was he expecting next? Almost all good Protoss gonna poke in with a stalker to see the situation. He might have lost to the 4 gate anyway but not to have that 1st bunker up is inexcusable for a player of his caliber. | ||

Why though - if you noticed by the time the first stalker was there hellions were coming out after the stalker got a few shots off. He might lose a marine to that but it's cheaper then a bunker, which slows down his expansion timing. The hellions can be repaired too so they would drive out that stalker. It was super greedy but it could handle the one stalker poke. | ||
