The best use of a mothership i've ever seen :D

Also the archon toilet still works pretty good


Kiwi puts down first vortex, Steph dodges the it with his broodlords, but his main army is stuck in. Kiwi puts down a second vortex, it catches all the broodlords, he micros his 2 archones into the second vortex. Both vortexes expire, and the broodlords take massive splash damage. The collosi cleans up the rest of the army.

I wonder if he planned to vortex the BLs with a second delayed one. I don't think he'd have killed Stephano if the whole army popped at once from 1 vortex, but because the roaches came out a bit earlier he could thin the number with his collossi.

LOL stephano didn't know the hotkey to vortex with a neural parasited mothership


wtf isnt is V? i mean lol


Perhaps his hotkeys are different. I know french keyboard settings can be different, and I know the abilities all have different names in other languages versions of the game. Not sure how those end up combining

Stephano could easily have forced a draw...

On the bright sight, this will probably help blizzard realize that the archo toilet has not been fixed


Rofl, zerg already crying imbalance, got to love it -.-'


I don't think the archon toilet even did that much damage...imo it was effective because the army got split in half for a few seconds and broodlord infestor is all about positioning.



Every broodlord gets hit by every archon once as the vortex drops because brood lords have such low speed and acceleration. No other units take this damage, but archons mixed in melee range with an army is already a dangerous situation for zerg, without the splash damage

Who needs terrible maps like Terminus and Tal´Darim when Shattered Temple always provides the best macro games!

The chance of Vortex being removed in the next patch like Khaydarin Amulet : 100%

Won't be removed.

But I think they will tweak it a bit.

Long PvZ where kiwi used blink stalker and colossus to keep sniping 3 o clock on shattered temple and using recall to get his forces out of there... in the end kiwi didnt ever get storm and i thought he'd lose but he hits two clutch vortex spells in the last battle after the map mined out and focussed down the 20 broods of stephano with archons


How can you explain something rationally which is madness? Sick mothership recall play to say the least and a bit of archon toilet at the end (although i dont think that were enough archons in the end to call it that)
I tink, MC so sterong

And now we go to metal, can zergs win on this map? Nope.


Is that sarcasm? Save close positions, Zerg has done well on this map.

Actually zerg has too high a win rate according to blizz which is why it was removed from the map pool....or so the rumor goes.

Stop saying that it was a good game.. it was an epic game but it wasn't a good game

Zerg has no (read zero) answer to archon toilet... there is nothing that can be done against it

archon toilet is total bullshit

he can spread broodlord like you guys said spread for fungal same thing, same shit.


Zergs applying double standard. Dudes, spread your shit up and archon toilet has less impact.

I think the loss was more because the colossi killed all the infestors while the BL's were in the other vortex.
I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.
