Protoss vs. Rain is optimistic to say the least.
Like Tinkerbelle, I leave behind a sparkly residue.

I don't know why anyone would recommend that game. PvZ has really become the worst matchup to watch from a spectator perspective. You're almost always going to see one of two things, neither of which is especially exciting.

i think is soulkey went to defend with his initial force he would have fared better

I disagree. I think he failed to burn any FFs in the open field and that's what did him in. Rain was laying them down seemingly endlessly.
Who's the bigger scrub, the scrub, or the scrub who loses to him?

Its when the Protoss is patient that the Sentry Immortal all in really becomes impossible to stop.

I, for one, appreciate good micro, so I voted Yes.

I'd love to see Rain all-kill their entire zerg line-up... that would be sweet.
At the end of the game, the king and the pawn go in the same box.

Why would they not put out a zerg against...anything? No one wants to go for PvP, it's a coinflip, unless you are a genius at the ensemble of PvP cheeses like mvpTails.

After Shy, I can imagine Light or Bravo being sent out, although it's going to be really tough to take down Rain.

Like others have said, make him burn FF's out in the open while he is moving to your base. Try to engage from multiple sides causing him to burn more forcefields. Rain was smart in that he brought plenty of sentry's with him knowing map. It's really really hard to defend even if you get everything to go your way regardless.

Not really, his vZ has been good since BWC. He lost vs Zerg here and there, but this matchup is very solid for him. My guess is they had Antiga, and didnt want to send any zerg on Ohana.

While still solid it is still his worst matchup. Just because it's his worst matchup doesn't mean he's bad at it. Of course they aren't going to send a zerg on Ohana because that's suicide but it wasn't a bad decision imo on Antiga. People are learning to defend in immortal sentry push. Soulkey just didn't.
