Motherships are almost turning into a liability lategame. If a Z picks one infestor at the time and move forward, sooner or later he's almost guaranteed to get that NP-vortex off. If the mothership isnt in range he just fungals and moves back. And the P has to move the MS forward at some point if he wants to have a chance at a good vortex.

Maybe just max out on 50 probes and 150 pop 3-3-3 carriers next time without mothership or archons or colossi? Heh.

You don't understand how Recall works do you?

That Mothership was in the army, Recall pulls an army TO the mothership, the town portal Recall is only in HOTS beta with the Mothership core.

Not the final engagement, I'm not that stupid. When he was derping around with warp prisms wasting 1k mins every time to take out 4 lings and a couple of ITs. He could've played more aggressive and actually got something out of his "multitasking"

C'mon let's keep saying all the mistakes Creator (didn't) make and tell pros how to play the game properly... Let's convince ourselves that battle was fair.

Letting his mothership get neural'ed though... :/


Because really a super slow caster that needs to move forward to drop its spell is easy to screen.

Yeah. I wonder if he could have ran his army down by the zerg's base and pushed there or if naked carriers could have worked with good obs positioning. This map though should be pretty creator friendly.

It is the best protoss army in theory, and yet it is garbage compared to the zergs. Thats the issue.

He move-commanded his mothership into the infestors and clumped carriers for fungals. I don't see how Creator played perfectly; that last engagement was much more disastrous for him than Artosis and Tasteless made it sound.

Yeah but if we acccept that Creator's play wasn't completely flawless in every respect then we can't declare from a single game that zerg is overpowered.


It's not like we all suddenly decided that lategame zerg is stupid based on this one game, it only reaffirms it.

10000 minerals, 12 gates

Zealots do well against 15 broodlords I heard.

He has no gas he can't warp in anything useful with those minerals


He had like 3-4 thousand gas when the fight happened... Pay more attention?

...which immediately disappeared into voids and HT even with his mere 12 gates. So more gateways would only have been able to make zealots.


...which is why slowly building void rays and HT against an army that just crushed that composition isn't ideal is it?

So if Creator instantly remaxes on stalkers while Hyun remaxes with the corruptors he made, Creator has a chance to overwhelm the weakened army.


There was still enough Infestor energy left and Hyun can just back off into his Spine Crawler Wall.
If Hyun overcommits Stalkers would have had a chance but if Hyun play it out intelligently Stalkers are completely useless.


It is a better idea than slowly making 7 voids rays at a time again against a guy who is expecting you to remax on carriers.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Their is no best army. There are only counters. And this one was not the counter of Hyun composition.

And Zerg army pre Broodlords is garbage compared to Protoss. Creator was going for a 3 base timing, Hyun tricked him with only 9 Mutas, Creator missed his timing, lost, end of story.

He ad "infinite" minerals, he could waste more than he did for nothing and it wouldn't have mattered. Gas on the other hand.

Oh, he did have 10 templar.

Well never mind, I have no excuses then. My stream lagged a bit so I guess I missed the storms or feedbacks, I just saw carriers/voids/mothership against 10000000 infested terrans and fungals.


He had practically the optimal composition. Mass carriers backed by like a dozen HTs, a few Archons, couple of Colossi, Mothership and the mass void rays that Zerg and Terran keep telling Protoss to try out vs Zerg late game.

Died horribly.
