from my exp, phoenix take a poo on 3g robo.  lifting immortals = negating any kind of advantage if you somehow dont get ff'd on the ramp.

but yes i agree, it works up until about then :)


Observer is a cheaper save against DTs than an oracle is >.>, also a safer one at that

cept for the fact that an early oracle can potentially do tons of damage :P. and you can scout with it. so if you see quick citadel or no tech, just make a second oracle or retreat first one, drop robo, take expo (situational ofc).

i open stargate 99% of the time unless rushing ofc. phoenix are just too fun lol

I think 3 gate robo 1 base is just pretty bad.
I prefer 4gate in pvp or either 1 gate exp into 5-6 gate robo/stargate.

3g robo is extremely weak to stargate harass. unless you take a quick expo with it...i dont see any way that you can really be ahead.

1g exp...greedy. would be begging to be rushed hehe

With my experience of playing drums I learned that if you keep practicing bad habits it going to make it even harder to get out of them.

Yeah well, if i get all inned when i 1g exp i'm gonna have a bad time for sure but if i manage to defend with a couple sentries and stalkers + photon overcharge then i'm gonna be so much ahead after.
I don't like cheesy plays, and if i lose to a 6 pool nothing i can do about it i guess, noobs gonna be noobs.
:p

Now imagine if all you did for 6 months last time you played in WoL was 4 gate for 1300 team games.

Yeah that's the bad habit set I'm in and it's so hard to break :(

i have a nice hotkey setup i use

qwertyghbn are control groups
12345678 are camera groups
a attack
s stop
d hold
fvc are spells. f for forcefield/feedback/graviton, v for guardian shield/blink/storm
zx are for macro abilities (ie archon morph)
qw are for observers or forward pylons and warp prisms
e for sentry zealot immortal
r for stalkers
t for the mofo
y for hts
g is gateways, ` for warpgates (i tend to use g)
h is nexus
n is for forges/stargate
b is for robo

dota hotkey setup:

2345tg=qwertg
alt + spell = auto
1 hero ` courier
qwerdf=items
j=glyph
z=buy tp
x=buy quick
c=control group
b=buy
h=hold (i know, different from sc2)

imo the best hotkey setups you could use

edit: ive played sc/dota for years, took me like 3 days to switch to these hotkeys
