PvZ Balance? Out of this world. Bisu didn't even play bad.

Well, although ZvP seems quite imbalanced these days, I've got to say that the last game Shine played really, really well. Also, Bisu got too many goons I think. Shine played very well though, and this build is quite good and new as well... I think it's becoming the standard these days. Maybe Protoss are trying to play against it like the play against the normal straight Hydra build and it just doesn't work as well.

why would you say they need new strats? you win some you lost some...



Well because protoss are getting owned by zergs steady these days and I noticed one big reason is those HT's dying too easily, the best protoss in the game just lost to some random zerg due to that reason heh. I don't think the matchup is imba but I think protoss might need to change the way they play a bit, although I don't know how I'm not a progamer.

protoss is not getting stomped by zerg ...its so common to say that but they aren't

nice chart... but its not denial... bisu is number 1 elo... when he loses everyone is quick to go OMG zerg is imba... but dude he's number 1 in ELO... i dont think balance is an issue now

Is he still?
Regardless, that ELO has not been coming from his vZ lately, but rather his vT and vP.
Thanks for playing though.

You mean losing first corsair and all of his HT? He played fine!


what could he have done to save the HTs =.=


What could he have done to save his corsairs? If he had more corsairs muta would be less of a problem.

ZvP record is 61-35 in MST and 58-37 in OSL prelims, both over 60%. Also 8-2 so far in Proleague and I'm not holding my breath for that ratio to change significantly.

I think Flash just passed Bisu for #1 ELO…?

(not that one player's ELO is indicative of an entire race's performance vs. Zerg anyway)

Actually, DA's won't counter HT sniping unless pretty late in the game. They cost too much + maelstrom research etc. etc. delays toss a lot and zerg can just go for mass hydra/lurk break.
Sair/Reaver/Zealot could be viable if only protoss managed to keep enough sairs alive. Dweb is a must in this case.

Think Bisu needed like 5 sairs with his army and shine could snipe like 1 ht max or DA but its kinda risky and noone has gotten the timing right till now


they key i think is to not be like Much in his Arena MSL match against Jaedong when he rushed DA's, but to time it with zerg's spire which usually comes after the five hatches + hydra den and upgrades.

basically, since zerg is suiciding their mutas to kill templars, toss needs to counter by spending just a ltitle time/money and get Maelstrom

Bisu @ HBR did a risky build with massive Zealot/Goons and no Archon/Sair against Muta-Snipe. This was his downfall.
First Game was very close too. Here Bisu had too many archons in early game so his HTs/Storm were too late.
Watch the second game, here Bisu did no mistakes and raped Shine easily.
PvZ might be very hard nowadays but it's not THAT imbalanced like you all are claiming now.

ok, so the guy with the best corsair control in the game, ever, who routinely does what no other protoss can do with them just needs to stop being so bad with his corsairs?

i think what you meant to say is 'he needs to build more corsairs', but that is a completely different kettle of fish and comes with its own problems.

whats the normal straight hydra build?

this 3 hatch lair -> spire + den +2 hatches hydra pressure switch to muta HT sniping has been like every PvZ game i've watched for the last i dont know how long lol ~_~

I am crestfallen. Nothing makes sense anymore. The world is spinning.

AND I AM ANGRY! So much for Starcraft being a perfectly balanced game...

/fanboi rage

Congrats to Shine, though. He deserves. I just hope he isn't a fluke.
