GM Certified

Play Style

The currently best build in PvZ: Save Macro Build that can knock a Zerg out in one punch if they're not careful. Also good build to try to learn Adept control with.

Strategic Goals

  • Don't let your build order get scouted! Make sure you check for overlords with your oracle and stalker
  • Fake out a third base, don't make it too obvious that you're not going for a fast third
  • Hit at latest 5:45 with a solid amount of Adepts with Glaives

Counters

  • Overly greedy Zergs
  • Zergs with subpar macro

Weaknesses

  • Roaches and Banelings
  • Overeager Shadeins

Transition Plan

Three base Immortal Sentry Adept Stalker Timing Attack with 2 Immortals and a Prism. Lategame Skytoss
