Against this widow mine drop you need to not cut corners so much (skipping everythin but 1 stalker)... also you need to not run out with your stalker and msc so that they cant get control off the ramp with the widow mine. | ||

I didn't say he didn't play perfectly or didn't make mistakes. The msc placement had no reference at all on this push, it was back well in time to help defend, and the scout with MSC is pretty standard and needed now adays. All I said was, 1 gate into expo into 1 robo, if not played perfectly, seems to fold out just like that against that attack. It hits before warp is up. Units wise if he did what you proposed, he would have had 1 extra stalker, he wasn't ignoring his gateway at all during that game, his opening was completely standard. edit: 3 stalkers + MSC + Obs could still lose that fight just as easily, so im not sure what your suggesting, except to play perfectly | ||

But it is. | ||

I said that the weakness in his build was exposed. Holding the new 1/1/1 by going gate into expo into robo is not easy. Never said anything was imbalanced, just that with the new aggressions I think a 1 gate/robo expand is better or a 2 gate expand possibly. Your putting words in my mouth I never said. I said that 3 stalkers + MSC + Obs would lose that engagement, which is what somebody above recommended doing. | ||

The paradox occurs when HotS buffed Lair-units, yet DRG hasn't been performing as well in the expansion. DRG had some of the most abysmal in-battle micro i've ever seen for a pro player. his muta control was pretty good, that was about it. he is the epitome of the 1a2a3a zerg, but to his credit he at least knew how to position his stuff well. you could do that in WoL but not anymore since mines will kill everything and timewarp+ff gives protoss an advantage against clumped melee/short ranged units. | ||
