I'm not even sure how the hell that happened. Alive was outplaying him the entire game, so late natural and third by First, and somehow he still had big enough army to stomp Alive.
The casters didn't show the constant zealot warp ins.
Toss's smart play is to play defensively with storms, lose a templar here, lose some zealots there. Use storms to disengage, Warp in replacement templars and zealots. Keep on dancing with main armies, while trying to keep on warping in zealots with warp prism and try to find a hole in Terran base. Never engage unless 100% opponent is out of position.
Hard to deal with. Not impossible but apm wise much harder on Terran. Not balance whining, just stating a fact. Still great games. Go head to head in one big battle and you flip a coin as to who comes out on top depending on micro and positioning. Dragging it out while backstabbing tilts the odds in P's way as eventually 10-12 zealots will find a chink somewhere.

Maybe because he had nothing to defend? SCVs don't do that well against upgraded Zealots.

Yeah that was a singular good storm. Thats all you need :-)

When your maxed as terran you can't defend until you lose supply if your army is on the other side of the map. Either that or wait for a production cycle and take damage meanwhile.
If the Protoss is dedicating supply to harassment then the Terran must dedicate supply to defense. Splitting your army is so hard? And people complain about deathballs.

What can a terran player do then? Like produce a ton of turrets?

That was so sad to watch, poor aLive. Up 30 supply to down by 30 in an instant >< GG first.

That was really bitter loss to aLive but it was a great match, couldn´t have gotten much better.

Both armies don't have the same supply-efficiency at all; park 20 army supply to defend Zealots raids and suddenly your core army melts so badly.
