What are.. The core idea the make a hold? Get enough units out, but stay right on the razor's edge to get enough drones for continuous production. Your units will always trade poorly, but you can hold it with roach/hydra, assuming decent concave. Also, having the third in an open are helps immensely.
Or 10 pool that nexus firsting nerd.

I guess they cant forcefield forever so yeah, might had worked.

Snute vs SD in the loosers match would make me hate this group already ._.

There is no way for Snute to know, Patience was supply-blocked, though.

I prefer proxy hatch in the main. I did it all the way up to plat, had like 75% ZvP winrate. Had one game where I was literally chasing a MSC with spores over half the map.

I think Snute coulda been more patient with a few more units tho, he knew that he couldn't build more sentries cause the Cyber was down.

Oh, right, that was part of the natural wall-of. In that case, me maybe should have waited.

Does Blizzard realize now that FF kill excitement pretty hard? Only onesided games for many months, only top or flop FF.

Have we ever had a Proxy Nexus/Hatch/CC in a main base in a high profile game?

Oh it is. Watching your static defense kill a protoss base rather than the other way around is like a five minute orgasm of pure justice.

In a main base is specific. Huk's done it vs Polt. Catz has certainly done it. Never seen a cc though.

Force Fields are great, the problem is that they're Gateway units, so you can get too many of them. That was originally necessary because Gateway units sucked and without Sentries Protoss would never have been able to survive the early game throughout WoL, but now that we have the Mothership Core, they could probably move it to the Robotics Facility.
