As a Terran player, please chide me if this is a stupid question: with the current meta, why don't more Protoss go for a big pre-hive super heavy blink stalker attack like that?

Because there are spine crawler walls. Pure blink stalker vs spine+infestor are not good. There are many others more effective pre-hive timings...

In this game violet was clearly confused by the unconventional build from hero and thats why he lost, but that push from hero was not very good. Hero is like tlo...usualy he wins disorienting his opponent with crazy things...

Yeah people used to do it earlier in the year, maybe around the summer? They used to go for a +3 200/200 blink stalker prehive timing push but zergs got good at defending it. I remember some people like Creator and Genius using it


It was the Seed build man

I never did see it not work, he stopped using though so I guess they figured it out in practice.

oh yeah I suppose he was the first one to do it and people started copying it. the PvZs all blend together for me

They pretty much do a lot of those timings. However Stalker/Immortal or Stalker/Collosi attacks tend to fare better because they're more balanced comps. If a Zerg gets wind of a huge blink stalker timing he can go more ling/infestor centric which really shreds Stalker balls if controlled well.

Okay, thank you. With 3-1 upgrades and the FFs that HerO had, how would have the 0-2 (??) lings done, do you think? With blink, does it fare okay?

If you can blink, yeah. Also if you get into a choke and cut your surface area of stalkers it can also work.

Fungal is a nightmare though, it both stops blink, and also interupts the command so you have to continually re-spam the blink command to try and avoid chain fungals.

Iirc Seed was the master of huge blink stalker timing attacks a while back, I'll maybe have a look and find some if you have GOM pass and PM you them if you want to see the style at work.

Also, can people stop saying HerO is some 'cute' gimmicky player. One of the most strategically intelligent players out there, very smart improvisational abilities.

I wonder what the delay is for outside NA. I entered the final character as it came up on screen and hit enter immediately, but it had been claimed.

It would only take a few seconds delay in routing or whatever for people on other continents to just not have a chance.

By now I am starting to think that they are just posting used keys. Some of them I got almost instantly and they were claimed.

Not terribly interested, just was trying to understand PvZ a bit better as someone who doesn't play the matchup.

Don't have a GOM pass either. Have to get on that.
