Well ironically the one game he won was against a 1-1-1 all-in.
Why 1/1/1 is considered to be imbalanced in Korea - Page 90

Agreed been off racing as Zerg for a few weeks cause i just don't wanna touch protoss at this state losing to it makes me rage QQ | ||

If possible snipe the raven * Possible contain to delay the push and thus getting more units out to deal with it So that's the pros. Cons: - Uses too much gas, meaning slow tech and therefore slower robo for the observer. - Sentries are really fragile and can be focused down easily (:0 siege tank target fire them, painful to watch QQ - Need a lot of them for GS, FF and Hallucination thus hurting your main army What do you think? :x Um....The 1-1-1 PDD push has a Raven O_o. | ||

I like Zerg, but ZvZ makes me want to kill myself, can't stand that matchup for some reason. Besides, it's not like I keep losing to this, I just 1 base all-in and the average Masters player doesn't have the execution needed to defend with a 1/1/1 opening. 3 Gate VR and the 4 Gate Warp Prism work quite well. Ya it's not really an issue at our scrub level because the Terrans don't know how to defend a whole bunch of allins in response. But when they do.... | ||

I don't think you're giving professional protoss and zerg players enough credit. Patches didn't give Nestea and MC their GSL wins. Sure, in the past some things have changed (notably 5 rax reaper was nerfed, but honestly I bet if they left it in Zergs would be stopping it today though the metagame would look completely different). I mean just look at the whole 2 rax/pulled SCV all-in trend that looked unstoppable for almost an entire GSL. Nothing really changed, but now most Terran's don't do that because it got 'solved' to an extent. Alicia made a post on twitter. I bet he's still practicing every day, not waiting for a patch to solve his problems or switching his race. | ||

no, it would not make hydras useless, you can only fight hydras with phoenix if you have 1 phoenix for each hydra, so energy almost never is a problem. and the counter to mas phoenix is not hydra, the counter is spore crawlers or corruptors. | ||

But probably not much PvT, and he'll probably just allin a bunch. Look at the ludicrous G3 of MC v Puma to see how insane this is making Protoss players. Phoenix into blink into DT into hidden base into base trade to try and beat it. Nobody has a clue what to do and they've basically given up trying. | ||

But if you know its coming, you don't lose. Like any all-in. | ||

If Protoss is to compete one-base to one-base with Terran, perhaps Protoss need to open with faster gas. | ||

Owned hard. Although this wasnt the exact build we are discussing here. Stimed marines with shields + tanks and medivacs of one base. I think the problem is either the MULE, which makes sooooo many marines for terran possible, or the marines are too strong. | ||

Genius just lost his first game to 1-1-1 but there was no banshees or ravens and he scouted the MT just as they were moving out so only got 1 immortal and messed up his ffs losing about 5 ffs with only 1 marine killed. | ||

Like any all-in. I think it's a pretty apt analogy. Both are hard to scout (well, hard to scout what specific variation) and the push can happen unexpectedly. Eventually Zerg players figured out how to play less greedy without giving up an advantage, and it fell by the wayside. I think the Zerg over-all winrate for that GSL was probably similar to the Protoss over-all winrate is now in that match up. | ||
