Haha played some games today and had a 8 games winning streak. It's quite awesome how we can bring our StarCraft mechanics to apply in Starcraft 2.

just saw one replay where a protoss player directly build a pylon outside of enemy's base and just warp in zealots....protoss seems to be quite dangerous if played properly now since they can warp units in whenever there is power field..

and SC1 does not has this stuff right?

Wait till you see a Zerg Nydus worm's head popping out from inside your base & unleash waves upon waves of Banelings as parting gifts.

In SC1, protoss player usually build gateways outside enemy's base, and spam zealots, that's given if they're slow in productions or something, correct me if i'm wrong, that's called "cheese" in a way.

i'm not sure, but from the video i saw, the warp is pretty fast, and you can warp in as many units as your resource can allow at that time.... sweat.gif

Nope,only SC2 has this.

It's gonna even worse if he use a Warp Prism to do that.
If you want to talk about DotA,go back to your Wc3 subforum.

This thread is only for discussion about SC2.
Thats the only reason i love SC2,it seems like all 3 races have more mobility than SC1.
No,Icefrog is now in Valve.
*
but for early harassment he still needs the pylon strategy right? =P

except that zerg don't have the terrain crossing units(if i am not mistaken), protoss has the big ass colosus, while terran has the hip-hoping reaper

Ash also just got it.
I think that strat is only variable in the middle of the game.

Im not very familiar with the tech tree,though.

well i can only watch replays on youtube now, will be stocking up money for this game, and possibly a new rig =P

In case you didn't subscribe to the official StarCraft channel (Facebook / Twitter), here's an interesting clip on how to box-out & crush Zerg critters with a comparatively smaller Protoss army. Don't bother checking out the first part as there's nothing interesting there.

well then again, the zerg player could have researched burrow to counter the force field spam (the protoss player did not bring observer along i think)

or

he could just pull back his mutas and roaches out of range while waiting the force field timer to run out....

There was an observer being sent over. I think it was mentioned in the first part which I didn't include here. Anyway, in StarCraft (1 & 2), there is no time for could have & if. A single mistake or mistiming is all a player needs to overwhelm or turn the tide around.
*
agreed, its easier said than done tongue.gif

just take it as an experience so that we will not freak out when we deal with this kind of situation in future games

but kudos to the protoss player for being able to pull out the force field wall up in such a short time while focus firing on enemies muta army

pretty much, and/or not build mutas when he pretty much KNOWS the enemy only consist of stalkers/sentries :/

ultralisks or broodlords would be insta gg on toss

no focus firing was made, atk + move anyone?

roach was OOR, thus the only thing stalkers/sentries could hit was the mutas, which made it seemed like it was focus firing.
all the toss player did was spamming force fields

lets not forget the AI/auto targeting threat level. didnt knew they have such a thing until the last patch about infestors mentioned it. if you play mmorpg/WoW, you'd understand it perfectly, else, take it as an auto targeting priority.
*
probably you're right, but at least he used some(if not any) micro as well since there was some zerlings and roaches slipped through the force field...but then i am not good at telling whether it was just Att+field spamming, or he actually did focus fired

1st I thought it was very smart, then I realized he was just shift spamming the force field. I do give him credit for building so many sentries with without getting crushed early game.
*
basically the zerg did not made a serious pushing attempt early game (distract+delayed by the proxy pylon harass?)

and when he finally decide to attack, he used the wrong unit (muta) even though he knew the protoss player has a bunch of stalker (and sentries)...=_=
