Vortex isn't that OP. Zergs just don't micro their armies, they never split up their broodlords

Only Zerg I see do that is TLO on stream, and it works pretty well for him there

No, the worst by FAR is PvP, I don't care what anyone says.

Problem with Protoss is that it's units are so expensive and strong that every PvX matchup ends in one engagement most of the time.

If Zerg late game is OP, then Protoss SUPER late game is OP, too.
Zerg just has to finish before Protoss gets unlimited gas.
Currently, it is relatively rare to see games going into super late game, but once game gets more figured out and super late game 30min+ becomes standard, we might see Protoss OP whines from Zerg.

Ret had his corruptors in an enormous ball over his broodlords, and he KNEW about the mothership. If you wanna complain about toilet being "OP" then pick another game as an example

What an awfully boring game, hope HotS can make PvX watchable.

Design fail.


Actually, I think it's more like if the zerg doesn't split, then he wins, if he splits, he loses. Rather than being in the hands of the protoss, it's in the hands of the zerg. Imagine if Ret had played that better, he would've completely demolished MC. He just overextended


This is true too. I was kinda whispering, "Don't go full foreigner, don't go full foreigner, don't go full foreign- ah dammit!"

I doubt Ret would have won if he did win that fight. Because MC had a huge bank and could warp in 110 supply. So it's not that when one lost the fight it would be over, ret just couldnt lose his entire army because he had a small bank.

Also i am starting to see a lot more back and forward PvZ lately (last weeks) so i think its getting past the point its just one fight (still a lot of vortex vs BL, but a lot of those fights within one match) so i think it is getting better

It's not just about splitting. The first one to make a slight mistake gets obliterated.

a 4-0 would help for the schedule's sake

It would also be a fair reflection of the difference in skill.

The biggest problem in PvZ is infestors. Once a lot of infestors are out, you can't do anything (cost efficiently) until a mothership is out. And that's when you get these types of games. PvZ really went to shit since the big infestor buff.
