Well mine were impacted and weren't even near breaching the gums, so I had some deep wounds. Pleasant.

When broodlords reach a critical mass, it becomes an uphill battle if you decide to use blink stalkers to pick them off.

What about mass air? Does that have a chance?

"You have to land a perfect spell combo" should never be the thing which makes a matchup balanced. It makes a whole fight decided by one move, in 1-2 key seconds. Horrible for spectators =(

Yeah, that part of the current ZvP styles suck. However, as people have said, Ace showed a really interesting PvZ style yesterday with constant harass to wear down a broodlord zerg.

Large numbers of void rays are quite powerful in PvZ, but they can get hammered by infestors casting fungal growth. Maybe a BW pro with good spreading and feedbacks could make it work though.


Theory crafting is good but when you have to take in to account a lot of millions thing to do when you are playing starcraft executing all these counters on the fly when you are macroing and engaging at the same time is going to be hard.

That's more or less what I'm saying. Pro games to date have shown void rays beating lots of zerg comps, but losing once there are infestors in decent numbers. In theory there might be ways around it with micro, but we haven't seen anthing like that yet.



as a high master protoss i can tell you voidrays absolutely do work however thats in like a 9base vs 9base scenario

look at zero he had like 7 bases and until the game was over only like 700 gas banked


as toss to do a voidray switch u gotta make like 6-7 stargates at 150gas a piece to match zergs macro at any decent rate and then start massing voids and u probably want air upgrades sooner than later

anyway mass voidrays DO work but just pure cost mechanics mean no game ever will reasonably *reach* that point

m18 massed voidrays and beat a zerg in the first day of proleague but the zerg just didnt know how to counter that "straight into voidrays" style where m18 just went straight into voids instead of tech switching into them lategame and theres extreme weaknesses in doing that wont even bother listing them

It's got to mess with your head if you play in the BW set and then have to come back out for SC2 the same day. Don't know how players would prepare for that.

It's been used already... By a SC2 player that should have less apm than BW players. So it's entirely possible.


Who ?


ST_Ace, against BBoongBBoongPrime last night (yesterday) in Up & Down match.


He basically abused mothership recall only right ?


He abused both Warp Prism for Drop/Warp in and then recall back the base, while dropping another Zerg's base at the same time.

Ohana is a 2 player map.

Entombed Valley is NOT forced cross spawns, however it does disable horizontal spawns. So you can get either cross spawn or vertical spawn.

I wasn't trying to start a balance discussion, because I really am not good enough at the game to know that stuff.

I'm just trying to feel out if I should keep spectating this game or not.

It feels like having moving "static" defense lets you abuse the food cap limit a terrible degree, as Zero did that game.


Well you also have to be aware that the Spinecrawlers are unable to attack while they're uprooted, take quite a few seconds to burrow, and they also move very very slowly so what you saw isn't "the usual" at all.

If the Protoss had seen that he was moving the Spinecrawlers under the Broodlords WITHOUT zerglings to function as a meat shield, he could have gone in and absolutely DECIMATED that army while it was moving.

Alternatively, if the Mothership was out earlier, a Vortex while that army was moving would have also resulted in a decimated Zerg army. More High Templars and Psi Storm would also have destroyed that composition because they are 100% unable to move, and it should have been very easy to flank that forward position.

tl;dr: That Zerg composition is not infallible and there were several things Stork could have done to win.
