There is currently no answer as Zerg to a well executed immortal/sentry

thats not really true. its stupidly strong but beatable. the 2nd game stephano cancelled his top left hatch when he didnt have enough larvae to produce lings anyway, and he was on 2 gas so he couldnt make roaches. with the extra larvae of lings or with more spine crawlers he couldve held. he was almost at the tipping point anyway.

zergs dont focus on creep spread enough either, which is very important vs the immortal allin.

and ling infestor or ling bane+drop are build counters to it, they just have other weaknesses.

Why don't they just give force fields a decent amount of health like the Entomb ability on Oracles for HotS?

Now people are asking for a Protoss nerf, when in fact they should be asking blizzard to remove all these micro-reducing spells such as forcefield, fungal,...it's just really frustrating to play against and to watch
Don't get your hopes up though, looking at the new abilities in HotS (abduct, entomb) it doesn't seem that Blizzard feels the same way about this

the game would be totally imbalanced without them I'm afraid


I know it would take a considerable effort to balance the game when removing these spells, but it would be a step in the good direction...they certainly have the opportunity to review their design decisions with the upcoming expansion and change a lot of things.

What if force fields had health and you just had to target them down first? Kinda like the mineral patch force field in HOTS.


No... unless gateway units are buffed. We live and die by FF's in most cases.

Easier to balance how quickly a FF can lose health then getting rid of them. It could reduce all damage taken to it by non massive units to 1 so it slowly dies unless you have lots of focus fire.

Oh god.. PvP would be so horrible.

It would seriously only work if PvP kept the current forcefields and other matchups got the new ones. Which won't happen, obviously.

If you do this, protosses will die left and right. 100% You can't just nerf it like that.

This immortal/sentry allin is completely broken, you can't actually win this as Zerg if the toss can throw good FF's.

Ok I'll let all the professional Protosses know so they can win every PvZ ever.


Have you ever heard of a unit called hydralisk? Hard counters that build.


No it doesn't. That's why you never see it.


Yes it does. That was not up to a debate, hydras just crush everything unupgraded GW based. Sentry/immortal, +1 zealots/sentry, you name it. They stop being useful when collosi enter the field though.


Hydras still die to those immortal/sentry pushes if the person knows how to decently FF.

The way to beat those pushes that i have seen is Nestea getting mutas and build mass spines and go for the base trade scenario.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=339136

Don't build hydras against immortal/sentry.
Play your best

Stop arguing about balance. Nothing wrong with that build I seen Stephano hold it many times just look´at Redbull lan vs Squirtle. Stephano has been traveling for a month now so it is expected that his skill lvl to drop abit.

Gz to Mana lets move on
