EPTAssume colossi out at 10 minutes (which is stupid fast), that's still 20 minutes vs 50 minutes of possible field time. Do the math.

A couple of times, I have managed to neural parasite the mothership and quickly vortex the protoss army. I wonder why pro zergs don't try that. | ||

Yeah but that game was horrible and only took that long because of poor decision making | ||

I think Leenock had neutral parasite the last engagement so he could do that but I don't know why he didn't. Although I didn't see if the infestors had enough energy. | ||

If they just made Vortex exactly like Stasis from BW, it would probably be a little less stupid. Stasis is still a more interesting mechanic even with that proposed change. Blizz kind of annoys me with their "want to do something different" attitude instead of sticking to proven, tried-and-true units/abilities from BW. | ||

Its just really hard to do unless the toss gets his mothership out of position | ||

Because any half-decent protoss is not going to let his mothership get NP'd by a 7-range spell. | ||

Seal vs Squirtle when Seal Neural Parasited the mother ship and wasted the vortexes on squirtle's army just like Scorch said | ||

As it is, a flying giant slow deathball doesn't feel very zerg like. Broodlords are the only unit that's slow enough to be affected by archon toilets so that kinda solves it. | ||

Also here is hoping that protoss will get a real answer to infestor/broodlord in hots. replicator....we make our own broodlords ^^ | ||
