If that strategy is as imba as everyone claims, I'm sure we would see pros using it a lot more. I'm pretty sure burrow move roaches could deal with it pretty well.

Tassadar tried the ramp ff as well the first game but Zenio had units there and was ready for it so Tassadar just went for the 3rd to try and do some damage. If you have some lings/roaches there when he unloads the sentries you'll have no problem stopping this as they'll die instantly and before the warpins are ready.

If you think that strategy is easy to do, you're wrong.

Y'know how it's hard to remember an inject every 40 seconds when lots of stuff is going on? Imagine it's 15. And if you don't hit it at the exact time, you just die. Not just that, but that inject every 40 seconds is literally all the macro you have to do, and if you don't hit the inject in the small specific location of the hatchery it doesn't work. It's not ludicrously difficult such that only progamers can do it, but it's not baby's first abusive all-in either.

Starcraft is a much better game!!!

Remember the Brood War days when we actually innovated instead of just complained and hoped Blizzard would make things easier for us?


hes not talking about balance he talks about shitty designed units / abilities.

btw we once again saw why no1 uses nydus. even unspotted, its still useless. surely needs a rework in hots


They were mentioning 'different kinds' of Nydus worm. So something may be in the works on that front.

But yeah, as it's designed now Nydus rarely works. Combination of slow as hell unload + the units you're unloading are weaker than everything that'll be trying to kill them. Oh yeah and the Nydus worm itself can be easily killed by probes.
I'm not bad at Starcraft; I just think winning's rude.

But yeah, this is must-win.

Either way TL is now pretty much screwed assuming they can snipe TaeJa without losing too many people. They'll just save Jjakji for HerO and that will likely not go well for us.

Dude just connect a nydus between your main and your expo. that would actually counter this build albeit at high gas cost


LOL!
You cant be serious...


I'm actually serious dude. This build is so full of shit a 200 gas investment might be worth it.

Yup, because there is no observer involved in this build

If you misplace the force field you have to put down a second one.

Read this with Idra's voice! LOL

Haha, that definitely sounded like an Idra quote.

Fuck this strat, the timing is too short for zerg to react to and its way to advantageous for protoss without any set backs

He saw the robo and his saw blink researching. He should have been more prepared in his main. Even if the Robo built an observer rather than a warp prism blink stalkers into the main was a possibility and he really should have stayed defensive for that. It's not as imbalanced as people think it is. 6-10 roaches in the main would have been sufficient.


6-10 roaches would not have come close to holding all those stalkers unless TLO immediately knew to target the sentries immediately. That would be the only way I could realistically see 6-10 roaches working, if he eliminates the FFs (baring the first, the first FF WILL go up. No matter what you do the first goes up)


And you can't really snipe the sentries because the toss can just put them in the warp prism until he needs another FF.

Yes Khaldor, this is so damn strong. Or you get really really really really lucky and can snipe it.

what do you expect? foreigners casting a game with a foreign team in a primarily korean tournament...


It might sounds strange to you but I'm interested in playstyle and gameplay, not the race of the player.


my point is that if you compare it to traditional sports it's exactly the same. whenever i watch a local sports team play on an international level with home commentators they are clearly biased.

go learn korean and listen to the korean stream if it bothers you that much

I know it may have been a bit late for TLO that game, but if you scout that build, couldn't you build a nydus in the back of your main and one in your natural/third to connect the bases?

High cost without certainty it is the allin and not some sentry pressure.

I guess you need 5 roaches on top of your ramp. So the sentries can't unload.
I had a good night of sleep.
