Standard 6 minute double gas seems so bad vs these MSC pressures. I think one geyser earlier for speed is needed, gaining early map control and droning behind it. Need to be active and kill off proxy pylons to deny +1 4gate attacks.

Socke is on a freaking tear today!

Love watching him exploiting every possible strategy against zerg.

I am sorry but watching Snute is tiring

He NEVER makes units, only drones... then proceed to win the engagement by the skin of his teeth.... and 30 dead drones

MC core seems like a problem, protoss can push out at a random time with no risk whereas they couldn't do this in the past.

So zerg has to make units at a weird time whereas we used to have to make drones to have a chance of holding off a later push.

So basically protoss gets a free push with no risk that zerg has to respond to and then just lose to a later push


So not being able to freely drone for first 10minutes is bad ? makes for more entertaining games if Zerg have to properly calculate their ability to drone xD and not just make 60dronese in the first 10mins then decide ok i'll make a 100supply roach army now and a move


No this isn't what I am saying, to hold off the immortal-sentry push zerg needs a high drone count, we can't make units at the 8 minute mark and then hold off the later push.

It used to be protoss couldn't move across the map randomly so we could make drones and sometimes hold it off. Now protoss can just come to the third and do damage with no risk and then follow up later with a powerful attack that is a lot harder to hold


That's funny. You're the embodiment of the boy that cried wolf.



I actually agree with you that recall is over the top with soul pushes but I cannot take your arguments seriously because you've complained about so much in every single thread you're in. Everything is imba to you, reapers, hellbats, medivacs, msc, etc...

So, how about we watch the games and see what's actually up.


I am just engaging in a debate about the MSC,my post history is entirely irrelevant to the debate.


Everything is relevant. And wasn't Snute one of those players who were still training WoL for this tourney till a few weeks ago? Seems like he really needs more practice, and liquid some protoss/terran foreigner so their zergs can practice with.

You realise those units are not suddenly going to dissapear right? You can use those units to help defend the later push as well.


with that philosophy i should just 6 pool everygame as I will have lings to defend any push

Don't waste your time answering such comments. It's clearly just trolling at this point.


It isn't trolling. Making units doesn't instantly put you behind. Zerg can make units and drones the quickest out of all the races and as long as you retain your units and don't lose them early, you'll have a slightly bigger army for later on. You can still get the drones and zerg has an inherent drone lead the majority of the game due to how your production works, it's just the drones will come ever so slightly later, but atleast you'll be alive.

Either that or build spine crawlers to hold early pushes. You can move them around and you'll need them for drop defense later on.

Either you're a troll or you don't understand how Zerg production and economy works. If it were as easy as you think it is, no Zerg would have ever died to a timing push from Protoss in the entire history of SC2. Everyone would just start making units early, and be safe all the time.

To get the army you need to hold off the immortal sentry push you need to be on 55-60 drones so you can afford it.

If I have to make a bunch of roaches at the 7-8 minute mark then I won't have the drone count to make the required army.
my units may have survived but overall my army will be smaller

Dying zealots look really stupid when the physics engine decides it has to throw the red glow all over the place.
