This is serious business. How serious is for you to decide. | ||

It really feels like if you ever let them get to a 200/200 army comp then you have no chance to win. Mid-masters. Would really really like some help dealing with protoss death-balls. Tips on ghost control (empin'g the archons and the templars when they don't just bring all the templars up clumped together would be nice. Alot of the time they attack, and leave 2-3 templars behind and just bring them up one at a time) If Protoss makes alot of zealots you should make BF helions, not more marines. Hellions absolutely rape zealots and are easy to micro with their speed, also have alot utility for harass, just like marines. Spread your army before engagement and position ghosts and hellions a little forward. You should have 1 group for hellions, 1 for MMM, 1 for Vikings, 1 for Ghosts. Getting cloak for ghosts helps alot and allows you to EMP pre engagement so you have less micro to do later in the fight. Engage somewhere where you can kite back alot to dodge storms, kite zealots and outrange slow colossi. | ||

As a protoss/zerg, I find that muta's do actually very well in harassing, if im a toss and i can't leave my base because there is a flock of 20 muta's waiting to come in, the zerg can do anything that the zerg may desire, such as....6 bases.. I have been testing with it alot in dia, and I know its only dia, but I find it effective, but I do need to find a way to transition from mutas into a big engagement unit. Should I start my hive when i start harassing and transition into brood lords? also, as a toss, would getting pheonix to stop mutas work and then they can also snipe bl? Just a thought, so be gentle... | ||

Because the banelings and broodlords are morphed out of existing units that may not have full hp, whereas warpgate units are just warped in. Does this also apply for Overlord->Overseer? | ||

I get that scenario but what if the unit thats morphing is full hp, and yes it does happen for overlord -> overseer, some players use it in zvz as a trick to get away from queens | ||

Just a thought, so be gentle... Not exactly the right forum, you want strategy. However... Reactive Phoenix as a Protoss just doesn't work. You just can't produce Phoenixes fast enough. If you've already gone Stargate it has possibilities, but I tried it myself the other night and I wasn't happy with the result. Other, better, players may have more luck though. The general rule for fighting off mutalisks is to go mass gateway using templar tech. Blink Stalkers/High Templars/Archons whilst mineral dumping into Zealots for the almost inevitable mass ling support (mineral dumping against the gas drain of muta production). | ||
