Cloaked ghosts do not beat BL + Infestors. Even if the zerg doesn't make an overseer, fungal not only kills ghosts very quickly but also reveal cloaked units. BL almost 1 shot ghosts as well due to friendly fire from tanks.

Having multiple 200/100 units instantly die isn't how to you counter BL + infestor.

Don't use cloak, just use snipe. Extremely cost effective.

That or he could have made more than one viking

Did you see how many corruptors Nerchio had? There was no way that Thorzain could have salvaged the situation by then. Thorzain really needs to practice his vZ a bit more. There's no way he could have won against a decent Zerg by just turtling up. T needs to efficiently harass Z to delay tech until T can finally move into Zerg's main. TvZ is kinda like ZvP now: you can't just let Protoss get three bases and max out as a Zerg player or else you're screwed.

Plus, making too many Ghosts is cost prohibitive, b/c then Zerg can just make a huge wage of lings and roaches and crush T's ground force.

You've clearly not seen how good snipe is against broodlords and overseers. You should watch Brat_OK play against that composition. The cloak is just to get the EMP on the infesters off.

You think ThorZaIN Lost on purpose, as to not give away more info about himself. As there are so few replays available for him, it will dificult for opponents to get a read on him. I felt the games against Nerchio were very uncharacteristic for him.

I just think he's unpracticed in the matchup tbh. His best matchup has Always been TvP and he practiced TvT a lot for Kas. He'll be rusty TvZ quite simply because he's had no need to practice it of late. I'M sure it'll improve now he doesn't have to Focus on a specific matchup.
