I was playing a game recently, and ran into mass carriers in a zvp. I tried to mass mutas, but when I got to his base, he had it so well timed, that when i was about to kill them, he had a voidray coming out. Any tips on timings of tosses big air units? I mean it's like toss can just mass carriers and win every game. Nothing zerg has can kill them.

I did try neural parasite game 2, but I wasn't able to kill all the carriers still. Game 3 I tried 10 neural parasites, but he just took the carriers away from the motherships, and killed my main.

what? zerg has a unit specifically made for killing them. It's called the corruptor. It even gets bonus damage vs massive units. The carrier is, you guessed it, a massive unit.

you need to look in the in-game unit counters more, and also make sure you play all of the single-player challenges to get a basic grasp of unit counters.

4gate is an opening that involves no carriers.
If you're against a 4gate, don't build corruptors.
If you see carriers coming, build corruptors.

If you're saying he's switching to gateway units after you bust out your corruptors, just actively scout and try not to overproduce corruptors.

Great troll. Some of the best I've seen around here. Good job.
Also, next time you complain about anything, post a replay so that we can judge. A link to profile would help too.

Don't worry, next patch roaches will be able to fly and attack air. Dustin Browder told me himself.

Yeah, I'm sure next patch they'll nerf carriers. Those damn things are so overpowered!

It's much easier to switch tech as Z than as P; seeing that most ZvP builds involve mutas anyway, it shouldn't be a problem to just tech switch to some corrupters if you see carriers coming...

With your reaction to "when i build corruptors i lose to 4 gate", it seems that this might be a scouting issue. Or a troll blog -_-...

You should be able to tell very easily between a incoming 4gate and a passive tech opening to carriers.

Also do you scout after that first initial drone? I usually like to send a ling to my opponents base to atleast check his unit composition and if he has taken its natural about every 3 mins. You sacrifice a unit, but I find the information I get is well worth it.

Also: massing mutas, generally not a good idea. You should be using more as a means to harass and get a 3rd base up safely. Then transition to something else once the 3rd is up and running.

The only difference between this and the strat forum is that people in the strat forum are actually serious when they say stuff like this. Once again blogs maintain a higher standard, gj guys
