Why is there no SALT encoding or Overwolf build?

Analysis

Zest opens with a gate expand, sending out a probe to a proxy location at the enemy 3rd/ 4th base as the gateway starts (16). Start the proxy-stargate the moment the cyber core finishes (27). 2 Oracles are made and used for harrass as often as possible. While this is happening, get all your tech up (twilight, Robo, forges) and go up to 8 gates. Get blink and 1/1, while also getting your warp prism, 4 sentries and as many stalkers as you can. Try to hit the attack as soon after 1/1 finishes as you can to make the most out of it. Go into the main and forcefield the main ramp to stop the enemy getting to the main, blink your stalkers in and achieve as much damage as you can while keeping the ramp blocked. This can be done in other ways, like dropping adepts or zealots into the main, or simply blocking the ramp while warping in as many units as you can to do damage, and attacking from the front etc.

In this particular match, Taeja sees an opportunity to attack as Zest is trying to stall him while he gets his tech/ army etc as we said before. Zest manages to hold the attack and immediately goes for the kill with the sentry ramp block.
