Btw guys, any tips for Desert Oasis map against Terran? Seems like that map favours Banshees and Vikings a lot.

I tried pushing out Phoenixes fast, yet gets killed off by Vikings, then harrassed by cloaked Banshees. I do fast stalkers with observer, and yet get harassed by Banshees, killing out my obs with just a scan.

The other alternative I could think off is to build cannons but that gets me into defensive play and I like having a mobile army instead of static defenses.

Any comments on this? Would appreciate it.

Hmm this video says go 10gate, but the thing is, unless you're pre-expecting this proxy rax you will always do 12gate. and even if you scout on the 9 pylon probe you won't put down the gate that early mah.

anyway reapers are SO annoying omg. even with a bunch of stalkers i got harassed big time by a 4-5 reaper terran ... their mobility is so great. front lah back lah side lah, stalkers can't move fast enough. by the time i fended it off, too late to tech to colossus or templar for the coming mmm ball ...

[edit] i've also noticed that the early phoenix harass is only really very effective against zerg. against terran = marines, against 'toss = stalker, these 2 units come pretty damn fast and for the huge investment of at least 1000 resources, there's no way i can recoup even close to that.

and yes, the phoenixes still can be used for scouting, air superiority, etc, but if the terran or 'toss do a push with big ground then it's gg also ...

thats what i did, 12 gate, OH SHI- BUNKERS

stalker came out... phew. OH SHI- RAUDERS
     

I HATE MMM!!!

thanks, but its just that transaction from 2-gate to robo is hard. how many stalkers till robo?
if robo, how many immortals till collosi?? PROBLEM PROBLEM

is it on front page??

VoDs?

2-3 photon cannons to keep them at bay until ur stalkers can arrive with obs (in case cannons got wiped)
and blink is almost a must to either get to ur base in time, or taking out the banshees to even the score depending on how much dmg is done to ur base

robotics is still the more steady method against terran. colo takes out MM ball and tanks too. though ideally you'd want a couple of templars too if the MM ball is too heavy and they can STILL snipe ur colo ignoring ur army of zealots/stalkers.

cept we all arent tester and we cant erect aprox. 8-9 FF within a god damn second and not get our sentires slaughtered by MM balls. lol.

Shit tht should have been a instant victory for most people there.. btw how did he know if the opponent's base is there?

Once u see a mineral patch, click on the minerals. If it's below 1500, opponent is there. No reason for minerals to be mined unless the base is there. You'll get sight of the minerals first before the enemy probes, so he won't be able to see you instead

When you get owned by infestor, just remember how u own zerg with reapers
