Stork is claiming to have a revolutionary build, I don't think he played it though b/c he lost to only decently played mass muta

maybe the muta were an attempt to throw stork off his game, thus making him unable to preform said legendary build. Maybe the revolutionary build is to claim you have a revolutionary build.

Because it simply is like that. The only thing Terran can do most of the time, is adapt. Also Protoss can take a lot of risks, for example with Reaver opening, without losing too much in the end.

zerg players are at another level and protoss players are slumping, not a big deal

protoss top players: stork, bisu, jangbi, best, kal... and movie... and maybe you can add here pure and thats all

zerg top players: jaedong, calm, julyzerg, shine, effort, zero, killer is showing some ggs in a 3-0 streak win, hero, hyun, yellow[arnc], luxury, type-b, hogil, firefist, hyuk, roro, kwanro

so imo ZvP is balanced, we are just living a protoss sucking era

Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest.

Tell them you're kinda famous and ask for a free win.

In all seriousness, there's really no strong counter to the 3 hatch spire strat right now, and the only real good way of winning against Zerg right now is to be unpredictable and use all sorts of super early timing attacks. As Nony said, Protoss don't really have a "map" that they can follow to deal with the current Zerg trend, because Zerg can make unit transitions much faster than Protoss can. That and muta micro is simply too good right now, but both High Templar and reavers (the units that can really handle mass hydra) are extremely vulnerable to muta snipes.

I think that is why people have a harder time with ZvP on lower levels but at progamer levels it's different. The current Zerg metagame hinges heavily on strong muta micro to snipe any Protoss units that could destroy mass hydra, and then overwhelming the opponent with mass hydra. There really isn't a hard counter to this right now, but hopefully Stork has something really clever up his sleeve.

Nowadays zergs just take the 3rd gas using their 3rd hat far away and build a sim city for imba gas, and behind them a main gives the 4th gas. Its cheating when toss has 2 gas vs infinte gas, and the available expos near protosses' main are mineral-only. HTs are ineffective against lurker contains and good hydra micro. Basically 5-8 lurkers contain the whole protoss ball and put them behind economically when the ball is useless. After that cows and defilers come out non stop and its gg.

Try not losing templar to sniping by actually keeping them with your army.

"But when I 1a2a3a the templar are slower!"

Don't do that then and they won't die needlessly.

toss doesnt lose temps cause they are slower lol.

Its either they get sniped by suicidal muta and 1a2a3a4a5a hydra mass. On 4p maps with easy to secure additional gas they do 3 hatch spire into 5 hatch macro and 4 gas camp to hive and role toss over with cracks/ultra so temps do absolutly nothing here. Such a boring thing, take a nat with your 3th hatch get a spire to deflect sair/dt harras and get 1m hatch on the empty main and other in block positions together with evo/den and just power like mad.

I believe there was a stint of Protoss advantage after Bisu's revolution, before Zerg noticed there are counters to corsairs.
My strategy is to fork people.
