This is exactly right. Polt probably has had a lot of practice vs zerg trying to get vikings out in time to match the broodlord corruptor infestor but found it was a worthless battle because infestor is just so damn cost efficient that vikings are basically worthless.

Corruptors are the issue, they should not exist in the game and brood lords should come from mutalisks. Without corruptors it'd be split vikings vs infestor and mutas, which can be outranged by thors. It becomes way more strategical.

Also, blizzard please make ghosts cost 50/150 or something more gas than minerals because late game terran has too much gas.

CORRUPTORS KILLING ESPORTS!

honestly it's only entertaining in the ling bane phase, which the queen's extra range apparently makes less effective anyways

IMO this is what I think Polt should have done:

Build supply depot walls
Build Planetary behind depot walls, siege tanks around planetary, and couple of vikings too
Build ghost academy, build nukes, start to drop nuke harass everywhere
build starports, fusion core, start building dem ravens vikings cattlebruisers

if Violet tried to engage with his zerg deathball, Polt pre-empitively nuke to prevent them from engaging
Then after 3/3 air upgrade finished for Terran, Polt moves out for an easy win

That's how I win most of my silver league TvZ games.
