Explained.


I was actually refering to the fact that he mentioned the ghost nerf in a game when zerg used mass infestors, when all that patch did vs infestor was making snipe 2shot infestors rather than 3shot. That's all that patch did vs infestors.

So no, it was not explained.

EMP AOE was nerfed ffs.....


That was a patch long before the ghost snipe nerf.


so what? The dude you originally quoted didn't specifically refer to the snipe nerf


Not a single terran whined about TvZ when they nerfed EMP. Every terran whined about TvZ when snipe was nerfed. Snipe was buffed against infestors.


/facepalm...

We are talking are TvInfestors here, not TvBroodlords.


/facepalm

Ghosts were buffed against infestors in the recent patch.

They always 2 shotted Infestors with Snipe, the patch did nothing lol.


You're wrong.


He's not technically, if you shift queued them properly you could 2 snipe infestors before the patch.

It did. In theory Snipe should have 2-shotted infestors before the patch but since infestors regenerate that 1 health point between 2 snipes if the second one is only slightly delayed you almost always needed 3 snipes to kill an infestors
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

Then again, that's why he was referring to the previous nerf... but I don't give a shit, I don't even know why I answered to you in the first place


Actually no, he didn't specify, so it's natural to expect that he's complaining about the same patch as every other terran. And yeah, I don't know why you answered either.

Honestly though, Infestors are a pretty stupid unit. Massing spellcasters should never be viable, much less as good as mass Infestor is.

It's not good against correct response. Have you seen MKP's (demuslim has done this also) mass bio + medivac against infestor ling? The medivacs out-heal the fungal growth and it's really effective. The zerg then needs to include speed banelings (which cuts into infestors, so it's no longer mass infestor) and then the terran has to split well. It's not "herp derp mass infestor -> win" unless the terran plays badly.


I'm not saying mass Infestors is optimal, and don't really care about how Zerg matchups play out specifically. Caster units should just never be as versatile and self-sufficient as Infestors, they're supposed to support an army. This is the main reason Ghosts were nerfed, they were too versatile and too good when massed. I really do hope that HotS sees some Infestors nerfs, since they're a really dumb unit right now.

Ghosts were nerfed because they were legitimately imbalanced against 3rd tier zerg (though the patch was stupid for this since it nerfed snipe against non-massive). What does it mean for a massed unit to be viable? Does the opponent have to not respond correctly?


I wonder what other caster can be massed almost exclusively and do well against any composition...

Like I said, "does the opponent have to not respond correctly"? Mass infestors do not do well against any composition.

i dont understand why hes making ravens again


Ravens are a terrible lategame unit, but their PDDs and HSM do synergize well with Mech. I'd say having 3-4 of them are good to have with a Mech composition.

It's weird that Zerg, being called t3h decision making race, has reduced to essentially monobattling your way out of the game once you know the opponent's composition ;D

Edit: nvm he added infestors. Well I guess he can only make those now :D
