There are no plans for a guide to other match-ups at this time. This guide was an entirely organic effort from TL community members of similar interests.

Omg what an amazing guide, I wanted to start playing a bit of toss, and this is so detailed and informative. Amazing job! I hope with all desire you guys do other guides, this is truly a good piece of SC2 literature. I am sure some pros can help you guys out for the other guides. Considering you have the basic structure of the guide down, its just a matter of filling in the material. I know it is a lot harder than that, I just want it so bad!
Play on Playa!!!!

Insane work there monk. Amazing. Hats down

Kinda hate that some people get in a silver plate what took others like months and months of study, but I think all this is well known for certain level and above; also is good for newcomers.

Oh and thx to all the other top P strat guys, rsvp, Alej, kcdc...

Holy crap this is the most amazing guide I've ever read. If only I could find guides like this for SSBM which I'm trying to get into a bit. lol

Thx for this! It's so stupidly informative and helpful to me because I just switched from Z to P!

Can someone explain why carriers are a better choice against broodlords than void rays? I would imagine that void rays deal stronger damage against both the massive broodlords, as well as the high base armor of lingering corruptors? Because of their slower speed, I would also expect carrier's to be more vulnerable to the various Infestor spells (and the up and coming viper kill hook from hots that can pick of entire carriers at a time).

Totally reading this. I can tell that it is 99% + accurate. And that's not saying enough, by the looks of it.

Infested Terrans/Fungals
Interceptors and carriers can be harder to kill off and the range makes it harder to get fungals off specifically.

Monk is the mastermind behind this whole thing. I came up with the idea for a PvZ guide like a year ago (or what feels like a year), but became very busy with schoolwork and it died off. Monk picked it back up, recruited more people, wrote and wrote and wrote and wrote. My name probably even shouldn't be on this thing, but the guys that finished the article are pretty amazing.

Oh. My. God.

That guide is amazing! I'm just glad that I'm such a bad player that I don't believe my competition knows how to read yet.
You know what unit really has balance problems? Colossi. Why, they look like they could be blown over in a stiff wind!
