Robotics Facility down for Genius. Lair researching for B4 as he takes 3 Extractors. 5 Gateways added on fo Genius. Macro hatch, Roach Warren and Evolution Chamber on the way for B4. +1 armor started. +1 armor started for Genius as well. Roach Speed researching for B4. Some zerglings almost manage to take out the Sentries, but forcefields save them. Warp prism being built by Genius. B4 already has decent creep spread connecting all bases. 15.00 B4 catches Genius off guard and gets really close to the army of Genius before the forcefields go down, but Genius just has a too big army! The Immortals rip through the Roaches that are trapped by great forcefields. Genius keeps up the pressure, and B4 keeps up the Roach production. More and more Stalkers are being warped in. Genius is out of forcefields, but there are just far too many Stalkers, and the two Immortals are still alive. The Warp Prism allows Genius to warp in right into the battle. Genius destroys the remaining Roaches and pushes into the third. As it fall,s B4 calls the GG. Genius ties it up 1-1! | ||

What you need to do against the push is pressure it and slow it down to waste forcefields (like that zergling attack early on). To do that you need to have some units to do that, and not be producing units at the last second. | ||

So if stephano thinks "stephano style" isn't the proper way to play it then I'm going to suppose he's right. | ||

Ya infestor/ling deals with that push really well, particularly because fungals also silence as well  | ||
