The Sentry/Immortal obviously isn't going to work, but isn't that unit composition used to counter the Roach Max push?
I would assume you'd have to open Stargate to get harassment in, but it still leaves you quite vulnerable.
I'm gonna say zealot/HT against lings and infestors, and focus the ultras with immortals. Easier said than done tho 
edit: And just assume the zealots/HTs will die to blings. So maybe morph them fast after using feedbacks.

protoss just needs storm, thats it. otherwise the banelings will always connect and kill most protoss units.

Because you can still die from it.

Fuck yeah, symbol figured out Neo-Sauron ZvP. I never thought this way of playing would have that much potential ... Symbol plays quite a bit different though, lots to learn there.

You can open exactly as Parting did that game because you get all the scouting information you need. I think psi storm is definitely an essential component to defeating a composition like Symbol's though

Okay, so I tried looking this up, but couldn't find anything...
WHAT THE HECK is that Monsieur J "I hate you" commercial ABOUT? Specifically, what's with the snail? What's with him smiling and hating "you"? I know it's their new sponsor and that it's for facial care stuff for men, but WHAT DOES THIS COMMERCIAL MEAN? Is this some kind of Korean cultural thing that I'm not getting?
Looked it up on Google and couldn't find anything... anyone know??

I think you just think that because its something you dont usually see, and thus not bored for it.
The game was no rush 15min, into zerg attack moves trough protoss.

To add : Why a good game? Cause the style Symbol uses showed amazing effectiveness from usual zerg styles vs toss.

Just don't attack onto the high ground and it wouldn't have been so one sided.

Neurals on the Colossi forced a really rough decision for Parting: leave the infestor alive and take splash damage from his own units, or snipe the infestor with blinkstalkers and face the wrath of the ultralisks. Blinking on top of ultras turns out to be a baaad idea. I think the stalkers just all got fungaled while they were in front of his army and the banes wrecked them. Then there was nothing he could do about the infestors. Well there was really nothing he could have done except had a better army composition and had his army in position and spread out better. He let the zerg sit for a little too long, but its not like he just let him sit all game without scouting. You got to wonder what the point of the scouting was though. He knew exactly what cymbal was doing but just kept making stalker colossus. No storm for the banes, no archons or immortals, no voids, no apparent change at all. He didn't use the scouting to time attacks either. He didn't think "oh look the zerg is rushing 4/5 bases hive, maybe I can hit before he can get enough stuff up". Just kept on a-turtling.
