Ladies and gentlemen, it is page 143 and any patchzerg, balance related commentary and the usual bashing etc from this point on will be met with harsh moderation.

well the mothership randomly chasing the zerg alone wasn't that great :-/ And he couldn't even benefit his vortex with archons then.


He didn't know if Violet has neural. So what he was trying to do is land the sneaky vortex. What happened is he kept getting fungalled and stuck at range so he had to use the mothership while the going was good. He managed to get a large chunk of the infestors but against an BL force of that size...

Hahahaha. I called it. Every HerO PvZ is the same. He tickles the Zerg to death then rolls over dead, and people can't believe how he lost.

For what? Hero not getting any archon's into the vortex? Violet played that properly, but he didn't end up winning because of his decision making, Hero didn't execute it 100% perfectly

What, do you only get credit if your opponent plays 100% perfectly? In that case nobody should get any credit whatsoever.

Cute harassment is nice, it will get you pretty far, but you can't engage big armies like shit and expect to win. Sorry.

People still think outmultitasking bl infestor armies makes you the better player for some reason, it's the slowest army there is, violet isn't losing shit because he's bad, he's losing shit because it's impossible to defend everywhere at once

Yes apparently after losing both the greater spire and the infestation pit and being one base below the protoss the whole game isn't enough, you still have to land not one, but two perfect vortexes to win a PvZ.

ok...

Denies 5th base forever while getting his own. Snipes greater spire. Kills tons of drones with storm drops etc.

He really couldn't have played any better....

You actually need a perfect engagement to have a chance of winning it as toss whereas the zerg has to do some basic army splitting.
Don't get me wrong, Violet is an amazing player but when you see games like that you know there is something wrong...
It's good to be back

Hero executed that 0% perfectly though...

That wandering mothership made no sense at all.

Hero needs to learn the carrier transition. His harassment is almost as good as Rain's, but seriously archon/stalker vs 18 Broodlords? Come on.

Carriers suck. Fungals and corrupters rape any carrier army.

i thought they were gonna nerf zerg after wcs?

They were not going to do it before.

makes sense i guess
make the announcement that we will not be doing something before a certain date
at least they didn't lie about anything

oh well the game wasn't that bad violet had good retention on his expensive units and saved a good amount of gas for the final army

still though i would have to say violet got outplayed for most of the game, mostly just keeping his stuff all at the centre and getting his 5th picked off countless times
the throws never bothered me anyway

There is no good way to engage that kind of army, thats the probem. It's not just a magical power all zerg players have that they always take better late game engagements.

To be honest, I thought Hero played close to optimal for a protoss who did not resort to immortal-sentry. Kill the morphing in greater spire, pushing, constant prism harrass, two good vortex... Not sure how he lost. Any insights?
