DRG used it in the GSL finals season 1. He doesn't uses hydras though, just 160 food ling roach and then mass muta. The hydras from Sleep are nice addition to force collosus.

Hydras --> Collosus --> Muta ----> Pheonix + Range ---> Infestor ---> ???

I think that is how it should go techwise.


Except the chain ends up with infestors/broodlords/corruptors mass spine that Protoss can't counter.
THis is why you don't play a macro or a "smart" game against Zerg, you go for a 2-3 base push and that's it.

Thors and marines are 100000x better than any of the anti-muta units the Protoss have. Protoss does not have a good answer to mutalisks, that is why Zergs still use them in ZvP but don't use them in ZvT.


That's not entirely true, storms are a perfectly good counter but it takes such a great commitment and much time to get the tech out there, and HT's are extremely fragile so it requires very good awareness and multitasking. Thors for instance can be left alone and dish out fatal damage anyway.


This is only partialy true. HT tech is not that hard to get actually, unless you are so far behind already that you are in this stupid phase where you have to warp in pure blink stalker to survive. The way more important issue is that thor deals instant aoe with a sick range while storm requiere you to pretty much hope that your opponnent messes up and chills in the storm.

Ever seen a Leenock ZvP?
pretty much all of them look like this. He doesn't always make hydras, but he certainly does sometimes depending on what opponent does.

Early aggression, Sleep has been playing very greedy these games and leaves himself open to a good 2base timing. Unfortunately whitera and grubby haven't seemed to take advantage of this.

I think you're right, he doesn't seem very good at handling harassment/agression.
If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.

Not hard to get no but the commitment in terms of gas and tech path is huge.

True but for the most part they'll end up getting ling/bling when it's that heavy muta, and storm helps againt that pretty well. You are screwed though if you survive long enough for them to get broodlords.
