As Protoss, you either have to go Colossus or hope they don't get Burrow Roaches or fast Hydras. If they do either, you're in a world of hurt. If you can pull off the HT mob, though, you're golden. Just keep expanding and engaging and you'll win no problem. It works brilliantly against Terran, though. It almost seems unfair: I've got something like a 95% win ratio against Terran with this strategy. I think San has shown that his no collosus style actually does work against Zerg. Plus MC and San have both shown that gateway units with proper force fields and blink micro can actually just run into a hydra-roach army and kill it. If you can beat Nestea and July with that style you can beat any Zerg. | ||

I'm not necessary insinuating that zerg are under powered, but at the very least you could argue that right now the current meta game does not favor zerg. IdrA was the highest placed zerg at MLG, and he got 13th place. | ||

I don't think balance whine will ever completely disappear from LR threads unfortunately. A lot of zergs have trouble with ZvP, this is a fact. They get dissapointed when their zerg heroes get slaughtered by toss. They shouldn't discuss it in the LR, but they just can't help themselves because they care too much about the game. It's worth noting that there was no zerg QQ in the Sen vs. Boxer series, I think it's specifically about ZvP. | ||

Seriously, I don't recall any discussion of zvt balance after Boxer's (fucking amazing) series against Sen. All the comments were things like "Boxer is such a badass" and "I wonder if Sen could have done better if he'd used more infestors and fewer mutas?" | ||

So i swallowed my pride and swapped races to what i considered the strongest race if played correctly (Protoss). I've been playing them since the end of last season and the beginning of this season. And learnt so much from the whole experience. Tbh the match up i hate right now is PvZ. I never realised just how immobile Protoss feel when you are controlling them in the early game. And how deadly the little things Zerg can do are such as ling run bys and harass are. How weak Protoss are until the 5:30-6:00 minute mark and vulnerable to timing attacks/all ins/cheese. Things such as ling run bys and nydus canals can really delay your push or 3rd and really aren't utilised enough. Things you need to hit at the right time as Protoss before Zerg hit their stride. Timings are so important for Protoss and if i went back to Zerg now, i know i would certainly play the match up differently and exploit the weaknesses i've found. I never realised how frightening an aggressive Zerg is to a Protoss player. Baneling drops are ridiculous :p. I'd recommend to anybody who has a problem with a match up. To play that race for a couple of weeks. And then you'll realise what they are weak against. What that certain build you are struggling with is weak against. And when you go back to your main race. You'll have so much more knowledge to play with and win more games as a result. And if you win all your games because that race is so OP. Then stick to it. Seriously guys, stop QQing and start trying to figure things out. Pretend a patch is never coming and work with what you've got. It's what Brood War had to do for years. | ||

And if MorroW doesn't know how to handle "sitting in their base" protosses then he needs to gtfo from the tournament. HasuObs is indeed playing for our entertainment as well as to win. If StarCraft was only about winning there would of been no TSL. No fans, no tournaments, no money. Just sayin. | ||

Not saying he is bad or anything but just cannot bare the fact almost all zergs are out Ignorance is only the fault of yourself. I expect you will learn from this mistake and do better in the future. Long live the Emperor. | ||

I like the way you phrase this, and I think people are losing perspective on the greater picture. It should be enough to say that ZvP is probably the hardest match-up in the game currently without making a statement about balance. This set today was really fun to watch and really had me on the edge of my seat. I think Morrow looked like the better player mechanically but his strategies were kind of stale. Haven't seen that kind of roach/hydra play in a while, but maybe thats still big in Europe or good against the styles that Hasu typically uses. | ||
