Protoss vs Zerg

knife-fight openers with crisp tech pivots

What you are optimizing
  • Force Zerg to respect your first pressure window before they get greedy.
  • Use shades and warp-ins to create doubt, not heroic overcommits.
  • Take the third behind a real threat so the follow-up has teeth.
Reads that matter
  • third-base drone greed
  • overlord scouting lanes
  • roach follow-up after adept pressure
Anchor build
