however i think i see this not working as often as it does work.. but very cool
I'm sporting 60-ish % PvZ winrate, which is not bad. I don't exactly play Idras and NesTeas, but most diamond and masters zerg have very hard time with it. I either lose very early game to a well-executed timing, or very late game in macro wars (fail to secure 5th and 6th, while zerg has solid 5th mostly).

Air upgraded dps is so powerful that it allows for infinite cost-efficient trade. Zerg can be mining 10 gases, and still struggle to rebuild enough hydra and corruptors to deal with it. I'm always ahead in upgrades (3:3 vs at most 2:1 air). Voidrays counter corruptors, carriers counter hydras and muta, and that's it for zerg AA. Loads of infestors are annoying, but it can be microed around, or flanked, since they are slow. And I'm all over the map too usually, with DT's and occasional zealot parties killing free stuff at expansions.

ah ah thats pretty 60% is pretty good.. I have no doubt this works for you .. it seems that if your investing in full air plus Dt's then most of the time I imagine you are catching your opponent of gaurd with your all air army.. but against top players zerg would more be prepared for something like this? but Hats of to you for not getting traped into "traditional play"
