It would have been a different story had he not taken the fight at Zest's 4th. yup, that's what I meant. He probably didn't have the army to form a strong concave that can force the storms out of Zest. | ||

The best buff they could give to bio-terran late game TvP would be to make Vikings more responsive so they could move out of Storms faster or reposition against blinked stalkers faster as well. Would make them much more rewarding to micro and more fun to control as well. | ||

Yeh he also got caught in the Ghost-transition as well which reduced his army count a bit. WIth this style you just gotta have 20-30 supply+ advantage all game long. | ||

A style or all-in to counter Zest? because Zest usually eats Zerg for breakfast | ||

Also long travel distance + recall + possible air opening into airtoss is possible, problems with scouting for zerg. It's imba, I so much love cross positions on frost | ||

(Just curious I like to learn abou other mu) Zerg nowadays relies a lot on midgame pressure -> transition to force the protoss towards a certain tech and take advantage. On big maps in cross positions, I have more time to prepare for their pressure and more time to prepare for what's next. Besides, if you want to pressure zerg, you do it with warpgate. Plus I feel like the lategame favors protoss on big maps. Cross positions makes it easier for me to get there. | ||

Haha, well my results on the ladder are not really good enough that it is worth trying, Protoss really loves DTs and oracles. And SCVs cant shoot up or detect invisible stuff :p Though i actually won vs a Z sometimes | ||
