Just 2-3 ghosts for EMP against the infestors would actually be very useful. Polt sets up insane concaves and already spreads out the fungals very well but if he can get a few EMPs on the infestors its suddenly not that scary. Broodlords if it doesn't hit 12+ aren't as scary, its the fungals that are so scary.

Stephano tends to stick with the same strategy until it fails. Simple and effective. If Polt can find an answer Stephano could be in trouble again.

Fungals won Stephano the game, snipe isn't the only spell they have.
EMP pretty good.

You have tech labs, use marauder/marine/medivac/tank/thor. thors are also useful against broodlord corruptor.

I think that despite the nerf it'd be worth it to get ghosts just to emp the infestors. Landing a couple of good emps could be game changing in this kind of scenarios I believe.

Why do people assume that its easy to tech switch from brood lord to ultralisk? You can only do that if you bank lots of gas, and that won't happen if a terran is smart enough to use drops. Like how polt limited stephano to brood lords by constantly doing drops. Stop asking for a easy game and learn 2 play. Geez, so many whiners.

Oh yeah, the second drop getting stopped was a huge game changer as well. If it isn't scouted or even Polt runs away with even three of the four, he's still in a great position. Again, at Assembly, that drop probably lands and kills Stephano. Stephano has really done his homework on Polt.

why isnt zerg leaving infestors for drops like protoss leaves high templars?


good point. most zergs keep it with their main army since they want to have the maximum amount of fungals ready but you could keep one per base and let it gain energy. i think infestors are even better than hts since they can burrow and avoid being sniped
banelings

tbh as a zerg player it's easier to just leave lings + a couple banelings instead of infestors and spines.
When I think of something else, something will go here
