This is a pretty intense change of style regarding casting, when I compare it to the chilled vibe I get from Tastosis every night...

There's actually a good chance Blizzard will do something about infestors, since they want to encourage new strategies based on new units. If infestors are too strong people will keep using them, and Blizzard will nerf until people stop using them, maybe?

No, after he made more, and while fending off the BL infestor ling attack he had them sitting off to the side shooting a nexus with no drones at it. I was interested to see how good they would be in that situation.

Exactly.

A-move Tempests and they will die. They need some basic micro the be properly positioned at all times. They simply do not do enough DPS to trade efficiently with anything in a straight-up, a-move vs a-move fight., so they need to rely on their 15 range to stay alive and slowly rack up kills from sniping stray, expensive units to be cost-efficient.

Let's see...

Infestor ball moving foward.

P army with Tempest:

a) Pull back (while shooting with the Tempest)

b) Stay and fight (and die)

c) Pull back

With tempest shooting speed, you can take at the most, 3 infestor or 3 bl (at most)
But eventually you have to engage. In a battle, Tempest suck, beacuse of the low dps. Z just have to move the ball, drops the infested rines as always, chain fungal to death, who cares the pathetic tempest dps (and a few corruptor will take them down efficiently anyways)? If the tempest use perfectly their range, the will die last, but they will die after the rest of the army got decimated (because infestor-blord not just win a battle, they rape).

FirebatHero got really late blink, pretty late collosus and, from the outside looking in went into tempest production way too early.

I think the way to play HoTS will be something akin to HerO, pretty standard early/midgame as we see now, into warp prisms denying expands and killing drones, while securing a 4th or a 5th, and THEN start building Tempests. HerO's way is the best way to play a macro PvZ, but he's run into a brick wall when it comes to actually killing the Z lategame army.

However, if you do all that economic damage, and you are able to chip away at that ball, sniping infestors especially, you'll wear it down and, I believe be able to kill it.

Tempests are not hardcounter to BL/Infestors. They are just very good at forcing fights and sniping units when the zerg is camping until 3 3 + spine forest.
But if the zerg attack earlier, it's the same as nowadays. Blink, archon, colossus...
