I Tried AlphaStar's PvT Build — Can a Human Make It Work?

Can I make AlphaStar's PvT style work without AlphaStar's micro? We look at the original idea, then I try my own eight-worker adaptation: early Adept and Oracle pressure, a fast third, and Phoenix support for the ground army. The supply block is very human. So are the adjustments when the Terran changes the plan. It works out in this replay, but I don't think this style feels as strong on the eight-worker patch as it did with twelve workers. This is one replay example, and I'm still experimenting with it. We already tried the PvP idea.
