How do you neural immortals when they are behind several archons?

Countered everything except for the big dogs. I got hyped when I saw Dark target the HTs with the neurals then realised it was roaches vs 8 immortals.

Yeah that was pretty much the same as me. I thought would great strat, then was like oh wait Archons not doing much whilst neural'd

Neuraling the immortals is great in theory obviously, but in this case he couldn't realistically neural them because the immortals were behind the archons. If he neurals the immortals, he has to get his infestors closer and would get them smashed by the archons.

Also very true, so in reality that strat would have taken some really big outplay on behalf of Dark to make it work. He would have had to probably have burrow infestors at the very least or do some very sick counter surround or something lol.

Well he wrapped around with the roaches to the back or they came from the back/side whilst the infestors were at the front with the archons no? But yeah i guess burrow was needed.

Nah, Archons and HTs would just kill the Infestors then, the reason this worked is because Archons are so big that other units couldn't pass through them to the Infestors, and they killed HTs quickly.

The way classic went for third it would have been possible from the highground of 2nd? But that's just theory. Save mutas, neural archons, kill immortals, we can theory craft mucho

yea the infestors were near the spine crawlers when classic's army touched down at dark's position. The thing is, it was basically 6 or so archons barrelling down into the the spine/infestor line, with the 8+ immortals and high templars much farther behind. those infestors couldnt go near the ht/immortal death ball anyway. it was just a weak strategy imo, especially when the only backup is roaches
