What is Zergs best counter to massive amounts of Archons?

I think pretty much all english BW casters have switched to SC2.


Not all, but many. Sayle still casts proleague re-broadcast and his own/international tournaments. Oh, and Tasteless does cast BW from time to time apparently. Not much though.

Just theorycrafting here, but would mass guards/lurks/hydra be doable? Specifically on this map and the middle layout I don't see ultra being a viable choice against archon/reaver.


Guardians are too imoble, and since you need to keep the hydras around them so one corsair doesn't kill everything, zerg is going to be moving around in one big ball.

guards rather suck. They are really slow so they won't even be able to dodge storms. Plus a goon heavy composition will just roll that easy(You don't even need goons when you have reavers/templars).

Pray.
Hydras are good, lurkers under swarm, ultras too.
But there's no easy answer to the protoss lategame composition.

You never let the Protoss get that far in the first place.

Ultra's are your best bet, but Soo lacked the gas.

Remember though, in BW once geysers mine out they still produce 2 gas per trip, instead of 8. This means that it's real easy for a late game P with map control to get a fuckpile of archons and HT's, since they'll be mining lots of gas but few minerals.
I cheer for underdogs and Flash

its not very often that you see that many archons.

there are plenty of good unit compositions in BW

like we've said earlier. SoO didn't have enough gas for the Ultras. Ultras would have helped significantly.
