I've seen games where Protoss who start off with a very sizable advantage manage to take out a nascent broodlord/infestor army.

But I have not seen a game yet where both Protoss late-game beats Zerg late-game when they start on basically equal footing.

Protoss used to have the mothership Vortex. But Zerg adapted by spreading their broodlords/infestors.

Besides, at that point in the late game DRG would've won with half the infestors he had. The problem with PvZ is that you can't kill the deathball without an Overpowered infestor, and protoss can't do anything except deathball.

I reiterate my point, I am cool with a late game zerg nerf but we MUST have a mid game buff for that or we are just fucked.

In general?

1) Yes, 2) yes (prefer it to lategame PvZ), 3) yes (compared to lategate, one would think, though I can't be sure.
2) because 3) ? No.

Well, when it comes to MC, maybe, since I like him

Blizzard really needs to redesign the game with HotS. SC2 is pretty pathetic to watch atm.

Coming to that conclusion based on this game is extremely stupid. You have to factor in which player has had the economical upperhand throughout the game, which DRG has had since the harassment at the start.


have you seen the last 50 PvZs?


no, not all, but wcs asia had top 4 as all protoss. dont whine when the fact is that protoss has the upper hand against zerg atm with immortal sentry



WCS asia, with high tiered zerg players such as Ian AK Sen Slam and Fly...( no offence)


right, those players can definitely take on hero parting squirtle rain and seed


lol....this isn't even an argument

WCS Korea though?

At this point in the game, it feels like the Zerg best response in every game is just to turtle to its super death ball.

Makes for boring matches. =(

Why would raising supply for broodlords require a mid-game buff? Lol...colossi are 6, and I'd much rather have a broodlord over a colossus.

There's a handful. Grubby had a couple at WCS Europe back to back. There just aren't any against the top tier zergs, because they don't die to mass zealot/dt warpins at all of their bases.

Because a late game nerfs needs a mid game buff. How many times must we say that? Zerg wins in z v p comes mostly from late game. Fuck our late game and we need a better mid game. And please, everyone would agree colossus is so much better then a broodlord.

I think that depends. PvT is cool when P is going for templar, ZvT is pretty nice and TvT is fun too. PvP is only fun when someone who's really good goes bink obs, ZvZ meeh it's not awful but not the best either.
PvZ on the other hand is fucking disgusting.

Blizzard is listening. They're making changes but they need to make much much more.

Although a big part of me still believes that Blizzard don't give jack shit about e-sports and competition.

50%?

I always do 2 base all in against zerg EVERY game, im not crazy to play late game against zerg, or some cheeses like cannon rush or something.

itd make protoss have a higher winrate, and they already have a higher winrate in pvz anyway since most games end with how imbalanced immortal sentry is

The only problem with the zerg late game is the infestor. But you can't change change the infestor without radically altering every ZvX matchup.

That has been known for the last 100 PvZs lol.

MC cannot have the gas to remax like zerg can.

Based on my observations, the player who creates the most successful harassment is often the player to come over the top in the end. I have BabyKnight vs Ret and vs Vortix from the WCS Europe finals fresh in my memory, where we see BabyK doing several games with successful harassments and then being able to reinforce his army well enough when the end game battles occured. I'm sure there are many other good examples of this.

No, gsl hero vs leenock. Hero harassed successfully all game and leenock got crushed. Then all of a sudden when leenock had been on 3 bases for 25 minutes he made some brood lords and won an engagement and gg. Zerg is far too strong.
