So good to see a good game like this, that was awesome, such a good fight. Love the broodling, so good.
But they should last longer , it would be even better.

Stephano won the crucial battle to take the game. So many highly upgraded Broodlords melted those stalkers so quickly. NightEnd played extremely well though with his DT harass, unfortunately for him Stephano will now learn to build a spore/overseer to counter that tactic.

I never whine about imbalance, but this is too much even for me. 5 vs 1 base, no problem for zerg. Nightend choose his engagement rather poorly, but the outcome was just not making any sense.

By the time the DT harass occurred, Stephano had already amassed his death ball army and finished upgrading it. This was possible because he had maintained the economic lead for a large part of the game by going up to 5 (and briefly even 6) bases while killing the Protoss 4th bases several times.

Pretty much this. What happened to Nightend is what can happen a lot when you go mutas against Protoss. You spend so much time focusing on destroying their economy, but it doesn't matter because they still managed to get an unkillable army. It doesn't matter if he can't replace the army because it's not going to die anyway. Nightend spent way too much time and resources killing everything but Stephano's army.

Exactly Stephano had to use his bank and resources to rebuild all those bases/tech structures after the DT harass and this hampered his ability to remax, but he never needed to remax his army after that point.

And I think that is why people are complaining. It is not just a balance in terms of win/loss because like you said, Stephano had the eco lead. It is more like once Zerg gets that composition, it is just WAY to cost effective that you can't even try to trade. But since the zerg is immobile, they can't defend multiple bases. It just doesn't make viewing exciting. It would be like basketball without a shot clock. Sure, one team played better and get the lead, but then they can just hold the ball for 10 minutes and wait for the game to end. Do you think people will pay to watch that? I think the BL/infestors army needs to be more mobile but also weakened so there is a good way to engage it somewhat cost effectively (even if not 1:1, maybe 1.2:1?)

Don't be like that. It will get better, you'll see.
