You still need a ton of micro vs a protoss air comp of that size, those free units don't stop that


Tell him even with a roccat launcher you have to aim

Then tell him to play ut so you can shoot three roccats at once

yea but abduting huge things like tempests, carriers, collosi, battlecruisers is comical to say at least


Well I always assume that one supply in Sc2 represents roughly a 1000 units except for the big units.

Roach, hydra is horrible late game, First's warp in of reinforcement archons and stalkers coupled with the colossus and voids he still had left over would have absolutely obliterated any roach hydra reinforcement.

You give very little credit to First, he played it out very well, and very patient, read the situation, did harass where he could, got the appropriate tech and units, microed well and minimized the losses he would get form the wave of free units, and then he struck perfectly, broke Symbol's defense and plowed trough the SH.

I imagine it'd go back to brolord/imbafester or just pure muta.

It would have to be pure muta out of those two options, brolord/imbafestor would get shit on late game

and from the other hand it's almost impossible for protoss to get such ammount of voids and colossus. One play provokes the other ; (

No, no roach hydra tech was why he lost that game. He had like 12 corrupters left, when nearly all lolossi and voids were gone. The only chance first had was to burst break symbol with a massive warpin.

First didnt play good at all, what was outstanding about this play? Nothing, symbol played much better, getting single voids+ tempest. Using his corrupters well, first did nothing but burst symbol. And he even did that badly. A lot of voids war scattered away from each other so corrupters could pick them up one by one. That is why symbol had 12 corrupters left after the big fight.

If he would have had roach hydra tech available then he could have easily clean up the archon+stalker warpins.

First did nothing well, it was just symbols mistake to lose his greater spire 2x for free, placing it in a very unprotected location.

First even lost 20 zealots for free fighting broodlords.

The BCs we can build have a crew of 4,000, so the old Russian man must have a really loud voice. >_>
