Perhaps at the forward choke where the two trees are. A Metalopolis style FFE doesn't seem possible judging by the distance from the ramp to the nexus but that could always be avoided by the 2nd path. Hmmm | ||

I would say arid plattoo needs an additional pylon to be save but thats it. But a zerg will have tons of problems against early aggression, means its better to apply aggression while getting your expansion down. | ||

Baneling busts don't really work againt an ffe in any way, simply because targetfire by canons ;o. I would say arid plattoo needs an additional pylon to be save but thats it. But a zerg will have tons of problems against early aggression, means its better to apply aggression while getting your expansion down. It's hard to tell until we can actually play the map. The distancing just makes it look too vunerable.I think zerg will be able to easily take 3 bases on this | ||

What he said was right, we dont deserve to be able to FFE every single map. Wider natural produces different things for every races, in our case it might mean were forced to- omg do the standard of two months ago- and 1 gate fe!So I assume we can double FFE safely when you 15 hatch right? No, because as a Protoss you can't defend it without cannons and as a zerg a 15hatch is perfectly defendable. | ||
