from my experience brood infestor is pretty much dead in pvz unless you get an enourmous lead early in the game, cant hold 3 base pushes and has weaker late game army vs defensive toss, its 2010 all over again

Yeah, it seems zergs are trying everything else besides infestor/BLs now. Maybe their win rate is really low now after the nerfs. But it still seems better than some of these things they are trying.

Interesting that the IT patch had such an impact on ZvP. Been a long time since 11 min roach maxes still worked I guess.

This is weird to me. What's stopping zergs from going fast hive? Are they super scared of 3 base timings or something?

i guess they want to prepare the transition faster, infestorBL is weak in hots and since this is the last season obviosly they want to try out better builds for the long term

No it wasn't. The IT nerf was always ment for ZvP, mass IT spam has never been common in ZvT.

I thought it was like 70% directed at PvZ or something? I mean, it's obviously gonna affect that matchup the most, aside from ZvZ...

I don't understand either... Someone should interview those desperate zergs


If you followed twitter, you'd read pro zerg players (especially Life) saying that with infestor nerfs, protoss is too hard lategame if the zerg played turtly.

Just watch MC vs Curious, Curious did the turtle into lategame tactic, but he got crushed by the mass air + HT of MC.


I do follow 'em and I did watch Curious vs. MC. Still, keep going for drop play and hydras isn't effective either it seems, right?

No it wasn't. They made the egg nerf just for storm.

there seems to be a direct correlation in making hydras (when not supremely ahead) and losing

I might be wrong but I remember a b.net post that discussed this patch and said they are looking at TvZ. But I cannot find it anymore.

But since so many units are different from both races. Doesn't make sense to stay away from from it in WoL. Even if you make roach hydra work against WoL Protoss, doesn't mean it will work against HoTS toss.

Hydras are decent when you are forcing trades and putting pressure on the 3rd (both vs toss and Terran). But if opponent can saturate and keep third up to make max army, hydras are pretty bad.

Squirtle is so awesome to watch, if he doesn't get picked up by a Kespa team I really hope Acer goes for him. Would be a really good fit, plus he'd be able to play for Axiom/Acer in the GSTL.

Well, drop play has worked but it is only really effective if it is a surprise attack or you are really far ahead. When you get scouted, there are just too many ways to counter it.
