Please everyone, stop the balance whining.

This is the only warning before bans will be handed out, effective page 53.

Anyone who plays phantom mode custom game knows carrier deathball is unstoppable. It's just that it is so much harder to get there in normal game unlike phantom mode.


Does full carriers win against full corruptors + some infestors ? I really don't think so.

clearly you didn't watch WCS

That's what he did at wcs too...


If I remember correctly, he was doing timing attacks much every game. So quite the opposite as this game.

he was going super aggressive 3base play while expanding behind in his zvp's, the series vs thorzain was all over the place crazy

he did anything but turtle at least

I don't understand why protoss doesn't leave 2-3 templars in the army to feedback the infestor going for the moma ship,that NP is practically melee range compared to feedback.

Korean protoss always do that, it's part of why PvZ lategame is so static. Nobody can really engage before getting in great position with super slow units.

That's so not true lol, I played phantom more than the actual game back in the day, and 200/200 Ravens (or 250/250 or 300/300 if you're pally/phant) is by far the scariest deathball if you can control it, maxed out BCs also beat maxed out Carriers because of Yamato, Maxed out Infestors also pretty scary.

Not saying going mass Carriers is a bad idea, but it's not the über comp. Also if you go pure counter comp with maxed Vikings or Corruptors, Carriers also melt.

Optimal Carrier deathball is not carrier "ONLY."
Primarily Carrier with HT support and warpprism ready to warp in behind the moment supply drops to 198/200.
1 carrier dead = 3 stalkers ready in 5 sec.
Just go play phantom mode. It is even ridiculous to think carrier is bad ^^. Different from ladder.

As far as I know the Chinese player Ace (not Startale Ace) in beta first used the Mothership Vortex, surrounded it with FFs and then killed everything instantly with Colossi, so Blizzard made it destroy FF and then naturally it led people to use Archons. Also, I think Day9 coined the term.
