Wait. Can't zerg attack? With 33 infestors you just need to land a few fungals and bam you can chain them and keep on dropping infested terrans. Worse comes to worse he has to burn some energy.

Great point. Counterpoint would be look at which race have the iniative to grab more bases.

Yeah. Back to watching some stork vods from '10


No, he can't go out and attack because of storm/feedback...needs to whittle down army as he defends, which he did

Wait for what lol?


more infestors to come out! lol

My point exactly. It's never going to get better for Creator, all he can hope for is to catch Hyun out of position, which I think is foolish to hope for.

I wonder if it's possible to win this by flying into the main for Creator. Keep your mothership at the 4th, recall if Hyun attacks. You still probably won't win the fight, but at least you destroy all Hyun's tech and you force him into an unfavourable position by attacking into you.

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.

Hyun is going to be pretty prepared in Vegas. The best three players on his team beside himself are all traveling to IPL5 and will be able to practice with.

Yes. Because a pro = a robot. How can we suppose a human being can have emotions, frustration, etc.
On a serious note, its from our nature. He was very frustrated from game 3 and throw the gsl away.

Back to talking about the Daybreak game. Rain beat Killer (yes I know killer is a worse player) with Killer having a similar composition. Like 30 infestors 15 broods and the rest of supply in corrupters. Rain beat it with carriers, NO void rays, and about 20 Templar. He just mass storm/feedback the whole time while colossus/carriers did damage from far. It was also on daybreak. So if the VOD for Rain vs Killer is up somewhere, it is a great example of how a toss can deal with it. Not saying it is the definitive answer, Rain could have gotten lucky, but it did work for him that game and I wonder if it would have worked here vs Hyun. Also, PvZ... let's be honest. Rain>Creator.

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.


i guess i consider him a kespa player because he switched over pretty late compared to the others, no?
whom are you, he asked, for he had attended business college

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.


Mass HTs dies to one Broodlord or Roach

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.,,


nobody plays airtoss

unit tester, lol

And zerg cant mass IT because there is no floor. Thats a nice idea on maps like Daybreak actually

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


if you split them up they're just going to get taken out by broodlords... every time you move them they auto clump because of unit pathing, you're going to split 30 up every time you want to move them all at once?

also, if they're clumped one fungal can hit a LOT of ht's, try it yourself in a unit tester.

It's just not feasible, if it was these pro gamers would be doing it.

They are not pronounced the same.

I think it's more of a slang thing. Should have is def more formal/correct, but when speaking casually most people in the US say 'should of'.
