ZvZs are getting really good. Watch some of the latest GSTL matches.

I play masters z and t and the only matchups I enjoy watching are PvT TvZ and ZvZ

Other than the fact that the super lategame ZvP is broken (the whole mothership cross your fingers and hope you hit a good vortex thing), ZvP seems pretty reasonable right now
Is that what you were referring to?[/QUOTE] I just don't like the way macro plays out in the matchup. Since this is an LR thread, I'll keep my balance opinions to myself, but in a nutshell, I only have a problem with macro games, not so much 2base builds.

Like with the tech and resources he had available I am not sure that Stephano could have done much better. Early ling speed, intercept the sentries while they're moving across the map.

Everyone was content with ZvT. There's nothing wrong with ZvP There's a lot wrong with ZvP design wise, but this game didn't really show it. It was a pretty typical 2base blink all-in that's been around for a year. Nothing new to see. I think P is the most badly designed race, I think dragoon is better than stalker. Dragoons can't walk down ramps, stalkers can So very very true

Well his macro in the early game was a bit off, and it hit him like a train when it most mattered.

Guys, stop talking about balance, it's only been one game.

he's right though, ZvP has been so bad for a long time now, either toss wins with 2 base all in or it comes down to whether they can get a vortex off or if the Z can pick of MS

Sentries? Zealot warp ins? Did you watch the same game? Stephano is famous for maxing on roaches by the way. You guys can't be serious.

Everyone was content with ZvT. Lol. I really hope these aren't Zerg tears in ZvP of all things. Thats funny, maybe you're a different Shiori? You're the one with the bible posts crying so hard about how Protoss can't win, how the match-up UTTERLY favors Zerg, how Protoss can't put pressure early game (which was proven wrong in the 1 game stephano took from Oz) , how stephano is terrible and HerO and MC are so much better etc etc etc ad nauseam. Balance discussion isn't for LR threads.

Did you even watch Oz vs Stephano yesterday? ZvP is bad sometimes. It also has the potential to be amazing.
