Soulkey wouldn't of known that, I think his overseer only saw the stargate in the main, but didn't scout the 3rd stargate that was added at the nat. I think Soulkey just hit THE PERFECT timing.

From this point in the game ? What I said applies in the case you do this kind of early pressure versus the zerg and switch to skytoss. After this, oracles aren't going to do much to secure your skytoss army.

Yeah Soulkey dealt with the skytoss nightmare perfectly. This is why I was thinking about what protoss should have done against such a good counter. HTs+zealots instead of colossi, and then tempests maybe ?

WHY DOESN'T ANYONE LOVE ORACLES?

They are something like Mutas, except that they have high dps against Light units, cost more and can't attack air, but they are terrible in direct engagements because of their low range, so if the guy has 20 Hydras, about 3 Oracles will die before they even attack. And he had mixed Hydras with Queens, and Oracles can't beat that many Queens.

Right now, Oracles are just early game harass units, and may be used later for Revelation, but this might change with the next patch, because Oracles will be the same speed of Mutas.

4 oracles in that mix, losing a voidray or two, would kill all them hydras np

Templars would work too, but he didn't have the gas or archives. If he went Robo before 3rd stargate and immediately Colossi he holds.

It looks like Effort just doesn't know how to play ZvZ and is really behind the meta.
