No, now taking in account that the Drone was able to secretly make an extractor anywhere on the map, the Protoss didn't really have a chance.
The Zealot would never catch the Zergling. And the Corrupter could follow the Zealot giving the Zerg player full knowledge of where the zealot is.

And the Drone could just hide somewhere and move if the Zealot got anywhere close.

I'm surprised the Protoss wanted to protect his core though. I would have just protected a Pylon. Smaller structure, easier to protect it should the Zergling try to micro around it, once it becomes the last standing structure.


One thing that baffled me early in the game was the placement of that Pylon to wall in his entrance. How did he squeeze his Probe through it, but Zerglings not being able to fit through afterwards???

Aren't Zerglings the smallest in pixel size?

His probe was outside of the wall when he placed the pylon; he canceled it twice to reposition it.

No. If you saw the replay, the zergling kited the zealot and kept on attacking his structures.

The zealot then gave up chasing the zergling, and then proceeded to mow down his base.

Ouch - As you can tell, I'm really out of touch with Starcraft!

oh okay. Had to rewatch that.
He canceled it as he walked toward it and quickly placed the pylon again after he walked through.
Looked like one smooth motion. Sure had me fooled. haha

There definitely is a gap there though visually. Kind of lame how it's actually a solid wall like that.
