That horrible endgame composition is the strongest army protoss can make xD

Maek Infestor hurp durp


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.,,


nobody plays airtoss

unit tester, lol


Ok I'm done with you... Whatever.

so, guaranteed kespa player in finals? does hyun count as a kespa player?


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?


He switched in the last few months of 2011. If you watched him at the start of his career, he was pretty trash. He never went above tier one units in the late game and had no clue what the fuck to do after ten minutes. He's come a LOOOOONG way on TSL.

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.

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.


Theoretically a HT shouldnt get the feedback off right? Fungal +spread > Feedback range on top of a faster movespeed?

edit: I mean while we're talking about spltting.

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.


Also worth pointing out that not only will he have team mates there to prep with him, but they are all the right races too for whatever he might face from here on out. Genuinely got a good shot of winning imo.

Creator basically lost when the zergling got in his base as he waited too long to hide his tech.
