Protoss has to kill Zerg before they get to hive tech, really. That composition is impossible to deal with if the Zerg is smart enough to split up their Brood Lords so that they don't get flushed down an Archon Toilet.


Hive tech? Massive difference between hive tech and being maxed on pure infestor/brood.

You should watch Stephano stream from Korea and see the top korean protoss he slaughtered tbh.

You should watch MC more often, he is one of the strongest (if not the strongest) macro protoss players. But why not end the game after 10 minuts if you can?

Not balance whining but can you give show me an example? None of Stephano's games I remember vs top Korean Protosses have allowed him to reach this composition.


i don't even remember him beating top korean protosses (maybe just inori? and we know nothing about inori's pvz), he beat terrans and lucky when he was on fire, with mass ling/ultra

That is because most of the time the Korean protosses force Stephano into early roaches and keeps up in bases (plus Grubby's warp prism harass can only be described as TERRIBLE/AWFUL)

then give us the answer, dear sir.
what do you do if your vortex (if you get one off, its not like good zergs couldnt use neural with one of their 25 infestors) doesnt hit more than 60% of the BLS cause they use their brain and split them?

just say what im supposed to do vs that army?

I thought you stopped watching? Stop crying balance it's annoying as hell and stephano is clearly the better player right now.


I agree but did that series look like stephano won because he was the better player? (I think he is but npot because of that series..) Yeah... Idk maybe as a toss I cant appreciate it but to me it just looks like stephano just stalls til doomball and 1-a :/ (Not blaming him, it works, just not fun to watch)

I would say Steph's strongest MU is ZvP, I don't think I've seen him lose a ZvP series while he has laddered.

That's exactly how you beat it

Grubby played an absolutely terrible late game to allow Stephano to mass up so many infestor/broodlords. Against a good player, you simply don't get to sit around till you have the spare 10,000 gas for that unit composition.

how is stephano the better player right now?
i dont see a difference at all.

both stay passive and macro, grubby even gets a lead after the first skirmishes guess what happens: Army A is unbeatable to Army B.


Grubby is worse because he lost late game ZvP while in a lead.

Have you not seen how every zerg for the last few months gets raped from archon + mothership + HT (storm on the infested terran eggs/balls)

I will root so much for Thorzain because Ret is just a Macro cheeser. all he does is mass drones early on and he wins if the enemie does not kill him then. All the games i saw when the opponent did a 2base push or allin he lost.

Funny how many people think he is good because they cant believe how fast his drone count builds up.

No one cares about ladder. MC is the only top Protoss he's faced in a tournament and he's been raped everytime.

next balance patch i feel will address either fungal growth again or infested terran DPS
Lol. All the best casting units (infestor, ghost, HT) produce variable results, because it's very 1-on-1 and they can be shut down pretty hard, so it depends greatly on control and composition. Sometimes they seem to perform incredibly well, but that's because sometimes they lose games outright.

What do they have to deal with it?


Archon toliet? Whenever archon toliet beats infestor brood comp everyone bitches about archon toliet. Everytime Infestor Brood beats a late game protoss comp everyone bitches about infestor brood.
