But even when talking about TvZ, if you actually believe that the queen patch had more impact on the matchup than the entirety of the HotS changes then you don't even have a functional brain. Thank you! I am talking about what we see in this tournament of course. | ||

And if they move out their reinforcements won't come to help with Phoenix on the map. And an addition defensive tool helps you to delay even if the army arrives. Never forget that Phoenix removes Mules from the game. MC's 2 base phoenix play into chargelot archon as you take a third is really, really strong. A lot of protoss at this point are still playing WoL with opening colossi and transitioning to storm after a third. Drops abuse the fuck out of robo openings. | ||

You stay out of widow mine range, it's wasted supply. If he picks it up and tries to re-burrow, move away. Micro saves your life. | ||

But yes if you have energy, that is the correct way to harass with oracles. | ||

What makes the push so strong is that zergs feel like it's ok for them to have three bases before gas every game and that they should be able to counter the biggest hard counter to it. If anything, the immortal sentry push wasn't strong enough, cause zergs were still able to win with greediest build vs most all-in build. But yeah PM me if you wish to talk more about this | ||
