Not so much when it was made, but when it was scouted, those transferring drones aren't seen and curious stays in the dark and the game is much different

Why not go for Blink and Templar, it just seems so much better to me T_T

Am i wrong here?

i dont think so.. zerg here, whenever protoss gets storm muta ling has to stop or the zerg will lose. atleast in my experience.

Yeah, but i feel like defending a third vs that is insanely hard, and blink+storm on 2 bases just isn't going to happen.


hence why i included "theoretically"

it's fragile as fucking hell, but i haven't played it enough to give a definitive consensus on it

Oz is actually incredible, yet that game still felt like a downward spiral.

I reckon Oz can win the next two games though, considering they are on more favourable maps.

I would quite like to see more upgrades in that sense. We've seen how devestating a double forge is for Creator, it could make a lot of difference in that muta-ling comp, especially considering how quickly lings attack, and the glaives of mutas.

Generally you scout it and 6 gate. That's why the style fell out of fashon.

It was never a style that was really 'beaten', though teching to blink stallkers and storm archons can work if you can defend well enough. It requires a lot more cannons than most Protoss are willing to make, and is pretty even. The six gate that hits before mutas is usually a sure win.


the point is that you dont go ling => muta. you can produce roach/ling like always and transition into mutas so... 6 gate is not working.

I like the idea of the sneaky 3rd because he was so far behind by allowing that 1ling in his base early, yes it was risky but he had to do something risky or he would have lost much sooner than he did

no good space control abilities in sc2 + too open maps + no flashed out timing attacks => tons of base trades

No, I believe that is by far the superior choice. Phoenix are too fragile to be effective against mutas.

Templar doesn't stop Mutas well enough, there really isn't a good option outside Blink Stalkers and even that isn't that great, especially alone. Hero vs. Sleep is a good example I believe.

I don't think the world's best Protoss could've won that, next map is TDA so he'll lose that too...gonna be a miracle to come back now, Oz needed to win one of these early games to have a chance

great play by Curious, credit where credit's due


TDA is not Zerg favored. At the very least not half as much as Bel'Shir Beach

Protoss armies are a lot more immobile than zerg runbys/muta or terran drops, so they only have that option is those cases

Oz played well but he took a bit of gamble with trying to hide his 3rd and when it was found, Curious made the good move to go mutas to take advantage. Amazing micro by Oz, but not sure if I agree with his decision making and build there.

Good, now that the zerg favoured map is out of the way we can see who is the better player of the two.

Don't try and take any balance out of this map, because of the huge amounts of counter attacks you can do and the wide open spaces AND the hard to take third its basically much easier for zerg to win vs protoss and it stings to see it still in the GSL mappool.

Makes me wonder if they should just disallow some maps in some match ups I.E. Taldarim or Shakuras and Belshir beach in ZvP.

The thing is, it doesn't really matter what Protoss has with Muta harass, you need to be transitioning into something else once they have Storm out so you don't outright die but we don't have good static anti-air like Terran does, Muta harass remains effective all game providing you have the multitasking ability to juke storms
