Please everyone, stop the balance whining.

Was used in beta and was so good, that Blizz nerfed it. Pretty much nobody used it anymore for two years (in competitive scene anyway) and Slayers'Brown used it in Code A vs IM.Losira for the first time exactly this kind of way - vs maxed out zerg BL army. Although I am not sure - it is possible that the first one was Kiwikaki in IPL3 vs Stephano, don't remember which one was first.

I'm certain kiwi vs stephano came first but brown popularised loads of modern PvZ with that game vs losira on daybreak I think.
Like the late game carriers, ultra fast 3rds and aiming for an archon toilet.


Yep, that's probably true. Especially the part about Brown popularizing the PvZ. I like him since then, just for that reason <3

The first time it was done in a premier tournament was San vs Nestea, Group E, GSL March.

This is a blink timing.

Or it should have been.

Kiwikaki had used motherships consistently in PvZ probably for 5-6 months before anyone else realized it wasn't a joke.

Kiwi used it primarily for recall though, send in army to a seemingly suicidal situation to kill some zerg bases, recall and repeat until zerg died. Everyone remembers the sick game against machine where he took machine for a ride killing most of his bases with blink stalkers until he just recalled out.

How funny it is that if one year ago if someone would have said "in one year every PvZ would end up with protoss getting a mothership every lategame" noone would have believed you.

Noone but kiwikaki. He'd just look you right in the eye and say "yeah that's gonna be me alright."

Since it will be mostly blinkstalkers isn't it normal to get shields? Makes total sense to me at least, that shield is the best with blink, it's not like zerg has emps.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Usually this is true, but it looks like here it's what theyre saying. It's just a huge three base super strong army before broodlords.
