Analysis

Description: Everyone know the opening, everyone knows what Robo/blink is good for. Use the observers for scouting, detection and map coverage, use Blink to stay alive, play more aggressive and snipe medivacs. What is different from the standard Robo/blink that Zest popularised? Well obviously, you 3rd is way later. ~ 2minutes later to be more precisely. You get much fast forges aswell. Zest used to take a 3rd at 4:20 and get double forge only after his very heavy Stalker pressure. Back in the glory days, most Protoss would transition into Gladept/Chargelot/ Immortal. Now Terrans have rediscovered mines, have super tanks and use Liberators more often instead of staying on pure bio/mine... DONT FORGET TO BE ACTIVE WITH YOUR PRISM! This will either delay the terran pushes, make them nervous or deal damage when they attack you. Zest also goes for the standard "korean 3 Colossus". Every korean who goes for Colossus (Classic, herO, Zest, Stats) all STOP at 3 Colossus and transition into Immortals instead. Immortals are better against marauder/tank heavy comps. 3 Colossus force the terran to build vikings (Remember: every built viking is one less Liberator) while still being effective by zoning out the Terran/dealing constant damage.

So you upgrade armor before getting a forge, and get a colossus before getting a bay.
Keep up the great work champ.
