I dont know, maybe just to replenish shield for zealots after retreat just to let them survive 1 or 2 hits more? Thats why I asked.

I believe what Protoss really needs to survive Hydra busts is the ability to Repair on their Probes which unfortunately is unlikely to ever happen.

hydra dps is so high that shield batteries aren't very good against them
if hydras are killing a reaver, they're going to kill it in about a second
if hydras are killing something that's not a reaver, keeping that unit alive for another couple of seconds isn't going to help you out very much at all

scrabs that travel on air is enough. Those slow scrabs cant damage hydras fast enough.

Felt like surfing a sc2 thread with efffing balance whine constantly.... Get rid of this this mentality people, this is BW we are watching.
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

With the way things are shaping up so far, I think it's getting to be pretty likely that we'll be seeing some tiebreakers in at least one or two of these groups, which is nice. The more games we get the better, right?

Actually most of this is not about balance complain but about theorycrafting to find an answer in actual state of balance. Why are you think it's all whinig?

Most Ps deserve to be hydra busted

-scout the hydra den and yet still skimp on cannons
-go for a tech build like double stargate + dt without a follow up plan
-don't make enough units and play greedy

It's not the fault of Zs hydra busting if Ps decide to play like this, it gets the job done and players have to do what they have to to win. It is not a balance issue. It can be rectified by simply playing better. Hydra busts have been around forever. Ps should know better.

lol....making cannons and find out he is drone whoring, making units failing to break through and find yourself up 2 vs 4 zerg base with hive. Not to mention he has the option to destroy all your cannons with enough hydras. Cannons take too long and expensive, drop like water.

I agree with a lot of your post, but this part is tough. If you build like 10 cannons or whatever, you're not going to lose immediately, but you're going to lose in 10 minutes since you can't pressure. It can be tricky to figure out whether a zerg is really hydrabusting or just wants you to think he is.

Everyone make sure to let Bisu know how you feel about PvZ on your way. Don't be mad Jangbi played like a butt.

what

Lol

ahhhh Modesty and Hyvaa shaking hands, they're team mates after all

some idea at least...

but I think maelstrom would be better

seriously its such an awesome spell, why the fuck Protoss players aint using their whole arsenal while T and Z players are...

just... ugh.


requires lot of game sense + apm..... to pull it off i guess . I think jangbi is not accustomed to dark archon style of play hmm....

throwing maelstrom requiers alot of apm ? ok. and even if yes, then bw progamers do have the highest apm in esports right ? Protoss players really need to do something about those hydrabusts and ht snipes


Protoss need another bisu evolution or whichever savior who will come with that sort of playstyle to counter the current hydra bust and templar sniping after all bw stood pride of it's game balance moto . So yeah probably in the future some one will start abusing every protoss arsenal out there to inch out the imbalance of the swarm .


I hope to god it happens and fast

Protoss players are really boring and dry lately... no innovations whatsoever

we need the revolution !!!


but bisu is still doing fine, the other's just can't seem to emulate that style

i don't think we need a "PvZ for dummies" build that everyone can use

even though something that stops Hydrabust reliably would be nice i guess


Bisu was always a real monster vs Z, maybe thats why

yeye, Im talking about the revolution in dealing with the hydrabust.


despite bisu being a monster he occasionally dies to hydrabust too...

true, true

Make a corsair, scout. Probe scout till you get a corsair. PvZ early game is mostly scouting.

who the fuck is whining ? its more like brainstorming to find the best counter to hydrabust

... besides, whine is good sometimes. Shows that something is wrong and need to be changed.
