Leenock needs Hydras and Infestors. Ultimate unit comp vs T.

They are playing WOL. I don't think GSL will switch to HOTS until the end of this years planned season (please do say if I'm wrong though :D)


thanks a lot friend

Infestors: sit in back, fungal stuff that tries to come onto you.
Ghost: needs to run in to infestors positioned somewhere in the back in the army.

You can figure out which one is more reliable to get a good trade off of. Let's also not forget that EMP does no damage to the Z army.


you can always run in 2-3 cloaked ghosts from behind. even if (and thats a big if) the zerg has overseers in every direction to his army there also have to be 2-4 BLs to actually kill the ghosts before emping. so either the zerg front attack is much less scary or the ghosts are able to emp.

+ some ravens would make a huge difference.


It's doable sometimes, but really just not reliable.

Requires army position, map geography, etc. to get away with it.

Honestly the best solution is just to outecon the Z and stretch the army apart. I'd rather make the kills on the infestors, than overinvest in viking initially.

They've already said they'll switch when HotS comes out. It being in Beta is not 'out'.

They also said they won't do it midseason of course.


2013 season 1 will probably be the last WOL GSL I think.

I think Leenock might have been going for a mech/heavy Hellion hard counter or something.

But really, I have no fucking clue.

Horizontal spawn
Taeja at the 5, Leenock at the 7

1:40 Taeja with a rax, no craziness yet bros
2:00 Leenock with hatch first, pool after a drone
3:10 Taeja with 1rax cc on the highground, scouts Leenock's main and tries to be obnoxious
4:20 Another cc for Taeja, and then double gas
5:30 Leenock with 4 queens now and takes two gasses
5:50 Factory and reactor for Taeja, Leenock takes his third above his nat
6:50 Double ebay, swaps the factory on the reactor and builds a techlab on the rax. Leenock with speed evo chamber and roach warren. Taeja active with his 3 marines walking around
9:00 Lair done for Leenock, building roaches, and +1 attack. Taeja with +1/+1, combat shields and stim. But bunker and wall wards off the roaches
9:30 DOUBLE ROACH WARREN, both upgrading!?!? Getting burrow and a macro hatch
10:30 Taeja going for a drop


11:30 Lotsa roaches and lings for Leenock 50 each, walking to Taeja's side of the map.
12:30 Leenock trying to smash his way in, but siege tanks and marauders beat him away
13:00 Infestation pit halfway done, +2 ranged attack almost done. +2/+2 on the way for Taeja
13:40 Leenock attacks into a concave in front of Taeja's base, but all the roaches die. Taeja picks up for a drop. No baneling nest for Leenock
14:40 Drop in the main, but Leenock is able to clean it up with roaches
15:00 Taeja walking forward, and drops again. Doesn't do much
15:40 Hive on the way and spire, 2 cc for Taeja. No pathogen glands yet????

Ghosts are a complete gamble. Good luck getting to the casters reliably before getting fungaled/killed by BL.


Just like how they always get feedbacked and are never useful in TvP


^

I just forces a whole new dynamic. yeah they're expensive, and yeah (all the arguments for not getting them).. but cloaked ghosts with EMP totally changes the texture of the match-up. I just want to see soemeone believe in the ghost and make some. even without cloak...maybe cloak is taking it too far.


vs P they are good cause they will not mass obs as it takes supply vs z they not work cause massing OS is easy since you make OL for supply at this level cloaked ghosts might catch someone off guard 1 time after that they will have 3 or 4 OS with there army all the time and the ghost will either get fungled before they get in range to snipe/EMP or BL will kill them on route

thats without going in to energy cost of cloak/emp/snipe when dealing with mass infestor

most players even pros control infestors really poorly they are just so strong that it don't matter most of the times leenock just aint one of them once amazing infestor contorl becomes standard for all zergs there will be a lot more one sided ZvT's
