Dustin Browder: From what we have observed in recent GSL matches, we have determined that infestors are well-balanced in the PvZ matchup, so we have elected to make no changes to the unit or its abilities.

I wonder if Squirtle intentionally skipped graviton catapult so his interceptors didn't clump as much for fungal? I feel like if it was a mistake he would have noticed. Also Squirtle did a great job of not letting Lucky get too many bases. I think that's the real reason he won: Lucky just couldn't remax.

But I still think that a swarm of corruptors wouldve ruined the day..

Wildly flail mousewheel, win engagement easily. So many infestors sitting in the back with full energy doing nothing for too long.

That was the biggest throw I've ever seen.

Mousewheel is banned.

I'm happy to see Carriers win, but if twenty 3/3/3 Carriers were unable to win against a Zerg with zero Corruptors and 70 supply in units that can't hit air then I think Blizzard would indeed be right to remove them from the game.

I'm not sure exactly what Lucky's gameplan was there, but whatever it was, it failed pretty hard.

It was very possible for Lucky to beat that. He didn't scout it though and that killed him. If all those Broods we're Corruptors, He smashes the fuck outta that army. That skytoss army is the most expensive shit in the game and he was so vulnerable during the transition. THat's just not a practical way to fight Infestor Bl, most of the time...

And Leenock to 10 pool here.

Hahaha that was so smart. No Mothership incase half the carriers get vortexed, and no graviton upgrade so that your interceptors dont all get fungaled straight away (since they come out in a line real fast/bunched up).

Mind= blown.

I think mothership is still worth it for recall alone. The ability to do void ray harass seems worth the 8 supply (don't even need to bring it out to battle and risk it getting NPed)

if you fused parting's insane micro and overall skills with squirtle's brains and understanding of the game, you could create a god.

Time for Choya to come out as the ace in a PvP final match.

We have seen Carriers plenty of times in lategame PvZ. And they are part of the ultimate composition.
Its a whole different story vs corruptors though.

In that game no. 3-3 carriers with void ray support would crush the corruptors. Lucky for some reason never got spire upgrades and never double spired.

I think that's it too, after Blizzard changed the interceptors to clump closer together when attacking things It's so easy to fungal them when they all fly out so fast with the upgrade.
