This is the point where the balance discussion gets left out of this thread.

ZvP is in an horrible state. Not talking about Naniwa who were never good in this match up (he was a beast in PvP and PvT), but i have the horrible impression that Protoss got nothing to counter Zerg's ultras.

It's either a passive game the protoss will end up losing or a two bases all-in which is boring to watch.

Man, seriously. F*ck this match up.

Lol at Protoss has nothing to counter Ultras.

Try every unit


Or you can read what i read after and understand that i meant Broodlords.

Meh, expected. ZvP is too easy for Zerg players and NaNiwa is bad at it in the first place. Nothing to learn from this.

Work out Protoss is doing a 2 Base all-in, defend with ease because Roaches.
Work out Protoss isn't doing a 2 Base all-in, win with ease because Brood Lords.

Seems easy to me.

you are an idiot. Defending 2 base all ins is ridiculously hard if the Protoss knows how to force field. Also getting Broods is very hard with all the pre hive timings that destroy Zerg unless you build 3 millions spine crawlers and defend like a boss. Then once you get Broods 1 lucky vortex can lose you the game.

Playing against Protoss is like trying to throw a paper bag across a room.

Edit: Sick german skills by Kevin by the way . Germany misses you too guys!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

People start talking about balance after watching this? Are you serious?. Nerchio could properly win over Naniwa just by making lings

Naniwa just does not know how to play vs zerg, it was just a bit sad to watch (and I like Naniwa, but this is no good). Anyway, you need a lot of archon vs zerg broodlord, and you need to stay on equal bases. Neither 3 base or stalker blink unders are enough anymore.

Mothership / Archon : Sure, it is good to call "counter" a unit which is only a counter if your opponent make a mistakes. In the last game, you saw Nerchio built some banelings so he didn't even have to split his broodlords.
Stalkers : Lol. No. That's the only decent thing they have, but it's not a counter. Not at all.
Carriers : I thought we all agreed that this unit was not worth mentionning EVER. The last time i saw it was in a Seed game. The time before ? One year ago.
Void rays : What do you need to make Broodlords ? Corruptor. You know, that unit you have to make against Colossus and Motherships.


I'm not even a protoss player, i'm a terran players, and at least, we have some good options against zergs. Protoss have none.

I guess EG dodged a bullet by not recruiting naniwa.

That said, hope Nani can pull it back together and get some motivation coming. Maybe hots will help, god knows pvz is hard.

One week earlier I would be at work and miss most of the games, however as it is now I'll have holiday so I can watch everything, it's great.

Yepp... thats the reason why zerg win every game.

@Carriers: Perhps start playing and watching SC2 again? I see carriers in almost every ZvP lategame.
@ Void Rays: And what is the counter-unit to corrupters?

Maybe just stop talking about balance if you have no information about the current metagame.

You know, I think Nerchio and Stephano are better than Korean Zergs. I think too many Korean Zergs are too aggressive during late lair tech or while morphing their hive.
