In the last game, If MC didn't leave with his stalker he can stall the Terran army even more and build up some unit to stand a head to head fight.
I wonder why every unit is weaker than it's counterpart
Storm does 40 DPS EMP does 100 Stim Mauruars do 30 DPS stalkers do 14 DPS 2 tanks do over 25 DPS a more expensive collusi do 18 on own the line Protoss is just weaker.

Protoss will do the same ,so instead of QQ'ing on forums hopefully they put their effort into finding a solution, but I'm sure the top toss are trying, granted MC just lost, look what Mana did to PuMa in group stage.
This needs to be quoted.
Zerg units were buffed idiots, they didn't change any playstyle.

I don't get what's the "lol" anyways... but you can also get the Durable materials upgrade for the Auto Turrets and the point defense drone which is pretty cool
Guys, PuMa was better at Brood War than MC too. He made almost no mistakes these games. Of course his strategy is obnoxious, but he still executed it flawlessly and also beat MC in the only macro game.

As a protoss player I am sad that MC that played really well, lost in a pretty severe fashion.
However, I can recognise some mistakes he made (in his army control for example) and as he has room for a better play, I think we cannot whine about it.
Not to be a douche, but your pointing out mistakes from a TWO time GSL winner? I'm sure MC knows what he's doing and has the control. Let's not take anything away from Puma here, he's just really good. And MC is really good as well.
Yes why can't I point out mistake from a TWO time GSL winner? And yes I think he knows he made some mistakes, that's not the point.
The point I tried to make is: MC did not play perfectly, thus I do not want to whine about balance. And yes, Puma played well, congratulations again!
It's funny how the raven is viewed by terrans as one of their worst units, and it's still more useful than more than half the protoss arsenal. 3 minute PDD, and you don't feel like getting them?

How on earth would a patch help? What is there to patch? How can you nerf this specific build?
Those people saying "zergs learned how to play better" while this is true, other races always got nerfed. Amulet dissapeared, spore crawler buff helped against stargate play, infestor buff, warpgate nerf, tank and reaper nerf, bunker nerf, stim nerf - all of these HELP the zerg greatly. When was the last zerg nerf?
