I think is just the new meta is about expand in many locations and defend everywhere, and is almost the same zergs do in HOTS, thats why they making well these first days of beta, but protoss have problems to adapt to the new dinamic, bcoz they are used to be at 2 bases all the game, and even protoss gona say they gona adapt, not gona happen with 5 days of beta, many vicious and autmatic way to think for many years not gona change in 5 days, maybe in 1 month and a half we will see the real potential of protoss, obviusly zergs playing more ravagers than lurkers, bcoz they r more easy to get, and it gona become a basic unit of the composition zerg, like sentry is in HOTS for protoss, so is better practice with ravagers and see how far can be useful, maybe to see more lurkers they should be morphed from roaches and not from hydras.

Just want to point out that Stephano is currently playing really Lurker heavy in both ZvZ and ZvT

He's usually rushing for hive, containing Terran with Lurkers/Vipers and Hydraling support. He puts up 3 Lurkers on ramps to contain bases and sets up loong concaves. It works great vs Bio, so far not many Terrans have figured out how to beat it.

In ZvZ, it seems to beat Roach/Ravager, using a defensive style and harrassing with lots of burrowed roaches.

He seems to be doing a "life-ish ZvP" style of rushing to Hive and then going balls to the wall aggression in ZvT, while playing more defensively in ZvZ to get the upper hand through runbys(he seems to be able to win vs Roach/Ravager with much less supply thanks to Lurkers).

Haven't seen ZvP yet. Stupid LotV ladder.
