Design fail. Blizzard ought to remove the mothership from the game and then give Protoss whatever tools they need to fight brood lord/infestor in a straight-up fight.


I love current PvZ. I don't play anything like the standard and zergs don't know wtf to do. It's players fault, not the matchup.


Sadly, most of us don't care how "you" play. We care how pros play.

You can't just let the protoss get to his archon/carrier/collosi death ball, gotta push out at some point.

Except you can, just sit still dimaga style and ask for draw.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Stephano being that good is an anomaly seriously ..

barely practices, plays basically 1 style 99% of the time, and still owns the best PvZ players in the world. how?

and that's why you're MVP's resident PVZ sniper in Korea, right?

I wish the nydus got more popular

What units is the zerg going to put in the nydus? The protoss player had like 25 warp gates, he could easily handle it.

quoted for the truth


seriously, i'm terran and i'm not balance whining, just from an entertainment stand point pvz is probably the worst matchup in the game... zvz is pretty bad too


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.


PvP is a lot better, since it usually ends early and has constant aggression.

PvZ might as well be played on Novice maps.


PvP and PvZ are pretty similar, pretty good in the early, mid game (although i prefer PvP) and completely shitty in the late game with a heavy tendency to just be determined by one wrong move.

PvT is worst
ZvT is best
ZvP and the mirrors are all ok

Anyone remember way back when San vs NesTea and San went pure archon/mothership before the vortex patch, and NesTea made something like 30 banelings to negate the archons in the vortex.

Maybe there's something to be considered there
SOOOOOooooOOOOooooOOOOoo Many BANELINGS!!

Is he going to kill off a bunch of his army to free up supply to warp in his main/

Yeah base raids before engaging in the middle in order to limit reinforcement warp ins is pretty effective... but very underused.
