My HoTS games in PvZ have been going well when I'm usually losing convincingly. Does it really deter people that much to avoid ITs? In lategame they lose a lof of efficiency (when everything is 3/3) but before it doesn't change that much imo. | ||

The new Warp Prism builds and the triple Forge build weren't the most common, but Daisy and First are showing how effective they are. Maybe Zergs turned away from Infestors because ITs got nerfed, but Infestors aren't the biggest factor so far. Watching Toss, I feel they really came with new builds. That's why I think the offseason really benefited them. | ||

It was pretty funny to see Socke vs Nerchio on Cloud Kingdom. Sockes 2-2 and 3-3 zealots just destroyed Nerchios Infestor play. | ||

Parting and Happy plus First are Code S - level (dont know abou dream and daisy), the rest is leagues under them and it shows. edit:spelling | ||

First and Parting are far better then any Zerg players at this tournament and Daisey and Socke are arguably too. 2. Protoss was NEVER getting dominated by Zerg in the way people thought they were. There were times were Zerg was favoured by never even close to as bad as ZvT. ZvP changes hands on who is dominant very often. Tosses dominated the WCS's and then Zerg struck back with GSL 5. Protoss dominates Proleague then Zerg owns at Bliz cup. Not an imbalanced matchup, just very volatile. the problem is more that it's too often a shitty match up with a silly lategame than its balance. | ||
