This is why you drop the banelings, and don't a move them.

Totally agree with you. IdrA could and should have done that in the big battles.

Just shut up. Can't cast forcefields in air: that's how you get around them.

Seriously though, I don't think he played that terribly or anything, but more emphasis on Infestors may have been useful; blink just fucking destroys Broodlords most of the time unfortunately.


If you're going to play Spanishiwa style you have to do economic damage with your baneling/infestor harass. If the Toss players defends your harass when you play that style you will lose every time. That's not Protoss being op that's the nature of the strategy.

Baneling carpet bombing? Multiple angles of attack? Drops?


Drops against that many number of stalkers can get shut down very quickly with target firing and blinking away from the ovies when it comes near.

4 Protoss Ro4 rofl. Grats on forcefield i guess . It needs to be changed to 75 energy and 10secs.

Okay seriously... Blizz needs to do something about forcefields. I'm not normally the type to whine about balance, but Idra was up like 70 supply at one point in that game (and I believe he was up at least 40 when the first big clash happened). Forcefield shouldn't be able to make up that big of a deficit.

That's a negative. FF's are pretty hard to use well.

how is it hard to put down 5 forcefields in a line? which effectively halts everything

That was amazing play. XiaOt had super low economy and it made IdrA overconfident in his ability to break protoss. This protoss is not normal, however.

I imagine having XiaOt as a practice partner would make IdrA a lot better at handling this style, since it is so rare in the US server.

People still complain about zvp after zergs have been destroying protosses in the last weeks? xiaot is just amazing and totally deserved to win this series.

Maybe use fungal with baneling drops instead of attacking in with banes and walking around with infestors?

lol, amazing, 5 base zerg vs 3 base protoss, same old same old.


Why do people insist on counting hatcheries and not saturation? If I have 5 hatcheries with 2 drones mining at each and you have 2 with 20 drones at each, does my base count matter? (lets say you have a macro hatch if you really need one) I don't think that his 5th was even saturated at all... so why even count it?

Regardless, why not focus more on the forcefields and complain about that?

?? How. He had hive tech and Ultras can stomp force fields... instead he moved way in with broods against blink stalkers.


Do you understand how awful ultras are vs toss?


Ultras are awful against everything unfortunately. They need a boost to be any useful; they die so quickly. I can't remember the last time I saw a zerg go ultras and do well. They don't have dark swam to protect them, they need more HP or something else to let them get in and do damage, otherwise it's a waste to go ultras in any matchup.

It's sad. I'm a protoss player but Ultras are one of my favorite units and it's sad to see them so useless.

Baneling carpet bombing? Multiple angles of attack? Drops? Fungal?

drops against blink stalkers. baneling bombs without roach support against 20 or 30 stalkers. fungals when you cant attack him anyway because of forcefields. multiple angles of attack when that just helps protoss because forcefields.

Idra plays his stuff as always. He ignores every change in Zerg common style from the last months... He try to face the protoss deathball directly, but every zerg on this planet understand to avoid those big combats....
