Its actually not all that easy to do IMO (maintaining the 1range advantage without exceeding it since phoenixes decelerate fast). I never said anything about hard or easy lol. I said phoenix micro is very elegant, kinda like a dance. | ||

Then you "box" the hurt phoenix', or if have apm higher than 50 select them individually and put them in the back. Took me minutes to perfect that . You're very skilled well done. | ||

You miss quoted your own quote lol. you said "phoenix outrange mutalisk. similar to terran banshee micro but alot more fluid" Greater range, of a particular unit makes it easier to micro vs other units of lesser range. | ||

Even if Z is buffed in the future it'll still be a chore to play where the tempo is in your opponents hands. | ||

Again, you asked "What micro?" I gave you an example of how phoenix can be microed (if u cant add 2+2 i dunno man) // longer range / short range = micro is involved You reply with "micro is easier"....so now you know there's micro involved (notice I dont say anything about the ease of micro-ing. . That's that. | ||

What I meant was simply that it's all a matter of how much stuff you have - if you get hydras faster and in greater numbers (leenock continued to produce mutas after the initial heavy loss) then phoenixes don't stand a chance. But if you get the advantage with phoenixes, you can just keep on pumping them and don't have to bother transitioning into colossi.

In the last days i've also been considering to try out another race for quite a few times :/ Watching the gisado games doesnt make it any better Although all the constant QQ in LR-threads gets annoying, I'm highly interested why zerg-qq comes back now...AGAIN...even before the new patch. I'd fully understand (and even as a protoss player support) a nerf of phoenixes after they get buffed in the new patch to revert them to their status quo. But what changed, especially in PvZ, in the last days/weeks that makes it toss favoured again? Even after the roach buff and zealot nerf? | ||

Not that the gracken needs defending zerg developed faster then the other two races due to there "limited options" its pretty clear what a zerg will be doing 99% ofgames reacting and surving where as the other races are still coming up with tons of new timings to crush us.. the first GSL was really FD winning not really zerg it was clear cut that at that point in time he was a clear mile above any other player stratigically.. but now that this zerg phase is over .. Zerg feels weak at times. just what i think.. ! guess not that it matterz! | ||

You're misunderstanding him. All he was saying was that there was micro because the other user (you?) asked what micro? Being hard or not he answered your question. | ||
