EPTThe crucial elements here are +1 armor, GS, and immortals, right? Can always smash thru some bunkers and back off to wait for a few warpins if that's what makes you happy but with people saying they get stim and a ghost around 9:00, seems crucial to hit hard right before that happens.

But, it's ridiculously scoutable (forge, delayed gas with no expo and no zealots) and it's got an obvious hardcounter which is pretty easy to tech to (EMP). Has OP actually commented on fighting ghosts with this? | ||

Sure, it costs some but while your friendly Terran is dealing with the push you can warp in units in the back and faceroll his economy. Another thing could be, depending per map, to drop the immortals inbase ? just get an obs and a pylon on low ground | ||

Works well vs all the people doing twilight chargelot openings for me. I'd really like to try that vs this build - I think I'd be ok because the only things I spend my gas on are stim and +1 weapons. It's delayed but with so many minerals (only one gas) I have a ton of rines and even though marines only do the 2dmg, immortals are just terrible vs them. Might be diff with 6range immo (patch) and good FF cutting me up but from what I see, most of the sentries are for GS. What I fear the most in my opening is people who kite me with stalkers for days (no medivacs so only one stim - if they kite me from my base it gets tedious) and collusi (but if I scout that I'll add more gas and get vikes). I'm only a low NA master though so prolly just basic mistakes in my games letting me get away. Like to try it though - msg me teamamerica.915 if anyone wants a game. I tried it except i went for the 5 rax version. Lost horribly, he just had too many units when he hit. | ||

I really like Immortals though mid-late game. The problem though is EMP, and the fact that Colossi are 11x more valuable in this MU :o | ||

On my second attempt I was attacking the terran units at 8:50 with +1 armor, 4 immortals, 4 sentries, 2 zealots, 1 stalker, with 2 extra gates morphing into warpgate mode, and 2 more gates a few seconds behind.

Can u supply a replay please? I def. feel that this build needs to be refined. | ||

i've been lurking this site for quite a time, but this thread push me to create account and join active users ;-) first of all, TY for this BO. with this my winratio vs T is ROCKETJUMPING TO THE SPACE =) i prefer to hit T about 10.00-10.30 with ~4-6 zets, 4 immos, (initial stalker if he wasn't sniped out) and 7-8 sentries plus additional warp ins near T bases. and, i haven't lost a single game vs T since i've started play this BO, regardless if T went for marine-scv all in, 2 rax push into fe, 1rax FE or even 1base ghost push... ...except infamous 1-1-1. i've read in another topic on TL that vs. 1-1-1 toss should go gate-robo-fe. i've tried incorporate fe to this BO, right about time second sentry and robo is on the way (it's time when my stalker hits T wall and i can scout, what units does he have). tested few times, and with FE puted down about 5min mark in 10. min i should've 4-5 zealots more, and income +250 mins over 1base play, so it should be better. but, if T isn't doing that, and prepares instead some other nasty push (becasue poking stalker that can see only few marines isn't reliable in 100% scouter), then my expo is kinda non-profitable (if i were sitting in 1base, that "other nasty push" should kiss my front door and that's it). so, what do you recommend to play, if i scout or assume that's T is going 1-1-1? tl;dr - love this BO; what i should play or tranzit if i scout 1-1-1? also, plat/dia toss-noob here ^^ | ||

-I'm in Gold - I probably hit about 15 minutes late - I probably did the build order the opposite way round - Terran's in Gold don't know what fast expanding is, let alone another build vs P that isn't a 3 rax I'll try again :D And to the guy above me yeah tanks + marines are pretty good vs this.. with bunkers ofc in front of tanks. Once the range is buffed it shouldn't be a problem though.. maybe | ||

Simply put, it is vague, and when read we find it does not refer to Hitler at all. Nostradamus talks about conflict, division, strife and war. He also specifically mentions the area in and around Germany. But of course this has been the site of countless battles and conflicts throughout history. Nostradamus said, "Most of the army will be against the lower Danube [Hister sera]. The great one shall be dragged in an iron cage when the child brother [de Germain] will observe nothing." This is where Hitler is supposed to have been named by name. But it says "Hister sera" and not "Hitler." Besides that, "Hister sera" does not refer to a person at all, but to a place. It is amazing that people get all worked up over things like this, and never check them out to see if there is really any validity to them." http://www.bible.ca/ef/topical-what-nostradamus-said-about-adolf-hister-...thats-right-hister.htm Don´t mind the bible stuff in the linked site. Your interpretation of the text seems reasonable, but I can certainly empathize with the person you're responding to. The basis for my own notice of the name's significance stems from a fairly well-known 1981 documentary narrated by Orson Welles, "The Man Who Saw Tomorrow". Given that people are less likely to try to refer to a place in the lower Danube than history's worst villain, I disagree not with the interpretation of the quatrains you cite, but of the intent of the user. As for the build itself, it's refreshing to see a build that punishes an abusive build in the metagame - albeit blindly. That it is stomped by builds other than the one it punishes *should* be expected. | ||
