if you see mass roach why dont you start producing about one or two hero banshees in your main? as long you have some missile turrets they should be save against mutas as well.

[Ketroc21]

@be1water good idea. I also like sparse amounts of banshees to kill infestors an waste their energy. All depends on his muta count I suppose.

I did some research and he's part of Clan Simply OP, they have a website. Anyways, what do you think about those small raven buffs, have you incorporated them in your game?

[Ketroc21]

@FrostyAbyss1 Didn't really help much. Wish they made it launch faster rather than move faster. The problem is the raven fires and beeps a full second before it actually launches, so there is plenty of time for the opponent to flee.

its good to see your zerg strategy holding up well to master level players. though it seems your base is getting compromised more often. are you taking longer to attack or are you just willing to base trade?

[Ketroc21]

@GodOutlandish mass roach is the best counter to my strat other than zerg tier3, as they can eat through auto-turrets and snipe PFs. I never want to lose my main, but not much choice vs a pack of 2-2 roaches

Coincidentally, this guy is on UNM's CSL team and I'll probably have to play him during our match. O_O

If i see you're going PF at your expansion , i would, as a zerg, take a 3rd ... drone up . And go for mutas for their mobility . I'd get lair tech right away and get overlord speed to catch sight of what you're up to ...:) sounds doable

What no goodbye?

[ToxinMortalis]

I do believe you opponent used the Day[9] transition strategy known as "Loosing your entire base." I'd say loosing 4 of 5 bases shows a strong preference for the strategy.

@GodOutlandish He's happy to base trade, if the army is attacking his main then he is free to put his autoturrets around the bases at will. PFs can stand up to a LOT and unless the zerg has ultralisks it becomes near impossible for them to push through 2-3 of them with a single army. That's the beauty of this build is that it tricks people into thinking they can win with a push, just like the early PF does as well. I'd love to see Ketroc keep practicing more builds so he can climb higher.
