Protoss Stratagy Question

[TekBlade13]

ive just gone to a cople of threads and seen you guys know what your talking about. heres my stratagy.

Game starts, get all probes mining, make a probe build a pylon and have that one start mining. by then you should have 73 minerals so make another probe, have that build a gateway and have it start mining. make 2 probes and have one mine, and another build a Cyb Core, then a Assimliator. make a stargate with another probe you have and then have those 2 start mining gas. make one final probe to be a builder, and let everyhting ride.

this is my stratagy for DIRE STRAITS but i need help with this part.
My friend EchoBoy is obsessed with zerg, he builds up units and surrounds his island with Spore colonys. my scouts cant get by him and arbiters are too slow. Ive beasten him twice by mass attacking him with like 30 scouts, but that takes too long. i need a quick win with a Toss vs Z areial combat. if you dont get it just tell me.

Try fast reaver dropping his probes and then make corsairs to deal with air and for hunting overlords. Reavers and corsairs work well vs all races on island maps. If u do it right he wont get the time or money to make that many spore colonies.

 

[TekBlade13]

thats the thing though, i cant get the rescources fast enough to tech up and get the reavers and there attacks. although ill try it, idk yet. Ill stick with my Scout Assault tactic for now, and use the revear (w/e) drop with it, maybe it might work good together. We play origional since he dosent have brood war, so i thought id make that clear.

 

[AKA-47]

Scouts cost too much and dont deal enough ground damage, get 1 reaver and 2 zealots in a shuttle and attack, then keep harrasing him while making more.

 

[Wing Zero]

i can do alot in big groups tho

A reaver rush usually means certain economy blow to your opponent. Most of the time they accept defeat after that.

have you tryied dragging out the battle? i think the toss have the best defense. use it to your advantage. just sit and wait till your ready. might have to build some reavors and corsairs to help defend base though. if he go air build groups of corsairs they do massive damage fast.

 

[FinalianX]

use corsair disruption webs on the spores and fly across.

what kind of a zerg player is this! letting u get scounts ur friend is a discras to zerg players everywhere! if he was a good zerg player hed have u flat in 20 min!

 

[Renzokuken]

[Original Raccoon]

[shrimpshark]

omg james u #### newb all ud do is zlot rush lol

 

[SutolDan]

lol, zerg sucks!!! When i first started playing my friend played zerg and zergling rushed me at the start with like 6 of them, and killed me lol!!!

 

[SMD]

If he makes loads of spore colonies try to use corsairs to annoy overlords. And when attacking get a arbiter to go in with a few carriers. The interceptors will confuse the spore colonies and will get your arbiter past safely. Then do a quick reaver drop and he will be raped in minutes.

Zerg sucks eh?you defenitely don't know how to use zerg.I'm a zerg player

 

[Phoenix2003]

Zerg does not suck.

 

[Zergling486]

Yea, Zerg DOES NOT SUCK. My record is 13-0-0 Ladder is 2-0-0 IF YOU know your enemy is PROTOSS, USE MUTA RUSH!

 

[betaalpha5]

well since your friend does not have brodd war. one thing i suggest is to get soem templar and hallcigen some of your shuttles. load the really shuttles with reavers and maybe some zealots and dragoons. send the fake shuttles like 2 seconds early and then send the real shuttles. put the fake ones above the spores and as you drop your men the spores will be occupied with the fakes. then f*ck up the spores and send more men.

i guaruntee you've never beaten any half-way decent zerg players

 

[Damiarch Tempest]

have you considered using a combination attack of corsairs, shuttles and carriers?
the dws will take out the spores while the reaver/archon/goon/zeal forces in your shuttles unload. the carriers can then cruise past the now useless air defenses and unload their ceptors on the workers, destroying your opponent economically
