It's gambling that they're going to do one specific build against you. Zealot, zealot, zealot, zealot, zealot... "Whoopsie, did someone try to skip roaches?"  | ||

To deal with late midgame sentry-heavy timings with collo you can still go ultra/bane Symbol style. Wrong. If you follow high level play at all, its extremely common on the Korean server for high level Protosses to use an immortal/sentry expand for a quick third that transitions into a 3 collossi/warp prism/blink-stalker/sentry/immortal/zealot pre-hive deathpush with range on the collossi. It hits at 13:00 which is impossible using any build off a 3 base opening to achieve completed BL/Festor ball (The only T3) by any pro currently. The only person who's figured out a decent way to hold this and maintain control is HyuN and he's known as an absolute GOD of ZvP. Even HE has great difficulty vs this style. I don't think you understand how the game works well enough to be speaking on such matters if you aren't even aware of all the pushes we can face in the current meta. | ||

I don't think you understand how the game works well enough to be speaking on such matters if you aren't even aware of all the pushes we can face in the current meta. The best 3base all-inner is Creator. He invented the style. Hyun crushed him. I don't see where the evidence for a problem is. Just because Hyun is good doesn't mean we should discount his results. I wouldn't say that he's any better relative to Zerg players than Creator is relative to Protoss (second in WCS, owned TSL, won WCS Korea, only Protoss in Ro8) so if anything I'd say Hyun is evidence that 3base all-ins are defeatable at the highest level even when executed by the best players. | ||

And if more evidence was needed, Vortix was able to fend off two 3-bases all-ins from Creator in their bo5 at the BWC, so... | ||

Units that can be uncloaked (and gernerally hit) with fungal: -) burrowed units exceptions: queen and Infestor -) banshee -) all units under a motherships cloak exceptions: sentry, archon, HT, Warp Prism, (DT) Units that cannot be uncloaked (and gernerally hit) with fungal: -) burrowed queen and Infestor -) cloaked ghost -) DT -) when cloaked by a mothership: sentry, archon, HT, Warp Prism, (DT) Especially the mothership part seems weird. You fungal into the cloaked units, some reveal, some don't. | ||

You fungal into the cloaked units, some reveal, some don't. It feels weird that Fungal doesn't work on Ultras, but I don't see anyone having a sudden brain aneurysm when they see Ultralisks. People will get used to it. Zergs should have several Overseers anyway. | ||
