Please everyone, stop the balance whining.

Heroes play looks so sexy when it works, and so pointless when it doesn't. It makes me nervous always.

Go Hero (but suppy is cute too)

Colossus not as necessary if he controls HT good enough to snipe some Infestors and has tons of Archons to handle broodlings. I think most pros would rather have tons of gateways and the mobility of having a warp prism around.

Hero is too stubborn with his late game style and Suppy has the perfect counter. You cannot outrace Zerg to a late game comp.

What exactly do you propose he do about it? No Protoss is particularly confident in lategame PvZ, which is why all of them avoid it. You're acting as if there's some obviously alternative that every Korean pro just doesn't feel like using.


2 base allin like the other Korean pros?

Lol...so PvZ isn't allowed to be a macro matchup? Like at all?


Yup, at least not a passive macro. Like Blizzard said, matchups are asymmetric. In PvT, T has to do damage early. You can't let Protoss get 3 bases and both tech paths freely. Same with ZvP, if you let Zerg take 4 bases and infestor BL comp, you are basically relying on the Zerg to bunch up for your vortex to win. If they don't bunch up, the P is screwed.

Am I saying this is good? No. But that is the current meta.

It would have been dead money. What would be their use? He faced BL/infestors basing his play on dodging the BL & harassment while macroing up behind this. Colossi are too slow to dance around like this.

Broodwar reminiscent style by HerO here....... The "Blue" Prism? I think that's HerO's new nickname....... coining it now.... THE BLUE PRISM!!!!!!!

(Spinoff of Kal's nickname, The Red Shuttle, but changed to Blue for Team Liquid, and Prism for SC2)

Suppy really should make roaches against Heros zealot harass. He is overcommiting to getting to the BL/infestor stage. A roach max while Hero was doing his zealot/templar harass and he could have rolled over Heros base.


if he's confident in his brood festor micro what he does is good. however he failed hard :'(

Problem is he is constantly trading inefficient against zealot with lings while Hero gets to work on his economy and tech unhindered at home. He denied the 4th once, thats all. He went from 30 supple up to 20 down in the harassment, and when he finially got his BLs up, Hero was ready. More roaches and continously denying 4th would likely won it.

Same. Maybe then Protoss will get a composition that can fight BL/Infestor and the matchup will have a fun lategame.

Recall is not the problem, vortex is.

Hero tried really hard to give the win to Suppy in the midgame (attacking into spines/infest...) but nice comeback after.
Zest fanboy.

Do not compare Terran's role in TvP to 2base all-inning in PvZ. The two aren't even remotely similar, lol. I don't want to have a balance discussion here, but please do not think that Terran is in the same boat that it was 6 months ago against Toss.
