I actually do that sometimes vs a friend of mine. I actually did that once. I went CC first and knew he would go 3 hatch before pool since he scouted early, decide to hide a 3rd cc, went smootly with 7 rax afterward :D

So, Olli, may I ask what kind of Zerg play you absolutely hate being up against on cross pos like this?

Best strat I ever did was prob where my friend loved to proxy hatch my nat catz style. So I defended at home and built a cc at his nat and turned into a pf. Was a fun game

I actually do that sometimes vs a friend of mine. 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
it's not even worth it against Zerg I think because you delay Mules and tech too much. I think CC first, then one rax and then third CC would be better

184 supply block by rogue...

zest just picking his opponent apart right now
|
now that's some sick play by zest right here
|
Excellent move with hallucinated Colossi, they ate shots as intended.

So good. Zest is so good.

Off creep Hydras vs Colos? How is that supposed to work?!
|
This is pretty much over, that attack didn't do anything while Rogue lost a ton of expensive units.
