CreatorPrime build!


Nah, it does have 2 forges though.

Twilight council is a tad later but it's the same idea. 3 gate robo, 2 forge, 1/1 and blink then 2/2 and charge.


Yea, it seems to be very similar now. I was just picky because I copied it up to like 100+ supply from the games Genius used it in.

Haha yeah I just looked over the games from Creator today as well so I noticed the similarities .

Yeah, I honestly don't know what's nice about that, they take no skill. It's just pwef! instadrain


could say the same about fungals and storms but people get excited over good storms or fungals all the time...

Who gets excited over fungals? I'm Zerg and even I don't most of the time unless they're REALLY strategic fungals. EMPs just never seem to be strategic at all, just press and go. Insane range, and AOE. Storm is impressive because it's not instant damage, and it doesn't root.



But it's still exactly the same skillset that is required to cast them.And fungal is by far the easiest. There is nothing strategic about fungaling units. you hit them once and then just repeatedly fungal them until they die, derp.


I still think it requires more skill than EMPs. First of all, a lot of the time fungals need to be used against air units, as opposed to EMPs which are mostly used against ground. That means more chance to fuck it up.

Also let's say you land a good fungal on some viking, you can't just wait to recast it again. Pro players find the time to squeeze in injects, or other micro in between the fungals, which requires more skill than just carpet bombing a protoss army with EMPs.

I think MaNa has a good shot at winning this. He has godly PvT and DRG is clearly preety bad at ZvP as we saw in the games vs. Gatored.

DRG has no trouble brushing aside Naniwa and Huk who are both better than Mana at PvZ...

What makes you think that? Nani is pretty bad vs Zerg and Huk, meh, sometimes good, sometimes bad.

Mana is really good vs Zerg now, winning against guys like Stephano or Dimaga lately.

Truth. You also gotta know how long to wait between fungals to properly kill different units.
