no it isn't

im not saying protoss endgame is comparable to zerg but carrier/voidray mothership blows


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


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


Please tell us what counters Hyun's army.


From my point of view... ie my post above
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=382816&currentpage=43#844

It's very hard, but with good vortexes and positionning, you can beat this army.


You're suggesting mass high templar, I don't mean to be rude but do you even play Protoss?

Have you seen anyone try it with decent micro?
I have no idea how it'll work out, you probably don't either, but the idea could be plausible. Just storm vs fungal then


I can see it being possible when the patch hits that makes high templar immune to fungal, but in this scenario if your 30-40 templar get fungaled once they are all going to die to the broodlings, or even forget the broodlings, just chain fungal until they die. you can't feedback 40 infestors fast enough to prevent one of them from landing a fungal.

Why everyone from United States on here spells should have, should of? I heard it's the same pronunciation but how it is that every non native english speaker writes it should have o_o.

Sad for Creator but PvZ is almost as hard as TvZ so no surprise, it's easy to lose against decent zergs.

So much immaturity and ignorance in one post.


I always find it really hilarious when people that probably aren't much higher than diamond call professional players that are also in the ro8 in the GSL "baddies". It actually makes me lol.

no it isn't

im not saying protoss endgame is comparable to zerg but carrier/voidray mothership blows


What is the strongest protoss composition?


blink/templar/archon/colo/mothership

any engagement in this matchup past 17 minutes will invariably favor zerg, but the "standard" comp gives you the best toolkit to combat infestor/broodlord


I disagree heavily with you that the standard composition is better than that one creator made. If you would run it in a unit test map I think you would see that his compositon is much better, with bad or good micro. I don't know your game knowledge but it's not the way it has worked the way I see it. Why do you think every pro gamer for example want to do the risky switch to air toss if they can just play standard?

Answer that last question for me please.,,

Why? He's one of the best players in the world. He's won 14 straight Bo9's in the Fight Club and improved mightily the past year.

If you go watch his games from eight months ago, he pretty much just made 100+ banelings always at the end of every game and then crossed his fingers that it worked.

To be fair, he seems to have replaced banelings with infestors...

Do you not even follow SC2?

HyuN is considered by most to be one of the top zergs in the world, def top 3 behind Life and Leenock (currently).

Just look at his recent results.. esp IPL Fight Club...

HyuN crushing everyone even when they have $1K-$2K on the line.

Fungal undermines what has ever made starcraft fun.

I mean, the responsibility and consideration for your build and how you improvise your control from the longest macro cycling game to the individual units gives the player freedom and LIBERTY, moar liek WINGS OF FUNGAL amirite

I kinda want Ryung to win, get on the mic, and then talk about how Boxer and Jessica never saw his true potential, how if they paid more attention to him that their team might have never died, and then Ryung jumps off stage to punch MMA in the face.

A legend is born.

ryung don't fail me now

not sure you would call hyun kespa, if you did then most esf players are considered "kespa" if they were on a kespa team back in their bw days, so I would say no you don't.

1 fungal doesn't hit 30 HTs.. and you just split them up
