What yang says.

There is also a build that is a hard counter to 1-1-1, which is 2-gate stargate robo. There are two reasons it works. First, it's doable on 1 base, which means you will have more zealots and less harass options for terrans. Second, instead of squishy stalkers, you get phoenixes that wtfroll banshees, ravens and can lift tanks. Otherwise, it's same concept of immortals and zealots, and same rules apply - engage in the open, don't let them siege up, don't lose probes, etc..

You can really only do it when you 100% know your opponent will be going 1-1-1, because you commit a lot of gas into stargate, and any transition from it will put you behind. I first saw this build in one of MC's GSL games, I'm sure there are plenty of examples from high level players.

lol. I see puzzle do on his stream alot times and he lost alot times too. As long as the terran scouts ur 'stargate', he can just add in barracks and make mass marines and hit at a slightly later timing since u are at 1 base. If you expand, he can just kill you. And u have blind open this build against 1-1-1 and it sucks against any bio FE build.. you can't even allin them.

I saw on grubby's stream today he dealt with a 1-1-1 buy getting Zealot Immo High Templar, Used feedback on the bahsees and strom on well everything else, was a tad micro intesinve but worked really well, and he scouted it quite late as well.

I have found (in the mid to low leauges) if you know it is coming you can 1 base coli and catch them before they siege and that works well also
