Photon Cannons even shoot, so imba


I want EMP on mules.


Gawd it reminds me of the Templar + storm + Kaydharin warp in.

"Warp in spells".


i'm ok with a 5s cd on the mule before using EMP, deal.

Yeah, but mediocre foreign zergs are used to beating top korean protosses.


Hopefully HotS is a wake up call for most zergs.


And put Protoss back to sleep. Because there was minimal micro needed for Parting.
Splitting voids ? what's that ?

Face it Protoss is the new zerg

Atleast we know that parting is an awesome player. We'll see if in a while every protoss becomes awesome all of a sudden(and clearly that would be just them playing and practicing really hard, right?). From what I've seen yet, they haven't.


Parting is an awsome player really skilled, so what does that matter ? He needed very little micro to win that battle, and i said this not because it think Parting is bad but because people whine about Slivko's micro yet did not look at what Parting had to do to win those fights.

Because in the least, a boring 1a movefest ended with the better player winning, and thankfully it is showing how great all these superstars that came out of nowhere and have been brutalizing the scene for a year are.

Furtheremore while zerg seems decently weak in HotS, protoss in no way seems as powerful as zerg has been. Slivko just camped against a superior player, expecting his deathball to be greater than his opponents with the end result being the superior player winning hands down, without any effort.


You are right it's forbidden for a foreign zerg to beat a korean.

Insane scouting, you can check his base for the first 6-7 minutes so you don't get surprised by any oracles or stuff like that.

Pretty sure buildings are not fighting units.

pretty sure overseers aren't either.

Pretty sure they would be if they became an "anti-caster" like TmzZ666 proposed. Tell me you wouldn't make 20 of some good feedbacking overseers :D


3radius "aura" prevents activated abilities around the overseer. Don't see a problem with that if the costs are right

It's not like you can kill your opponent by dumping mules and scans on him.

seems i've been lied to

explains a lot

I've noticed that when you dump 10 mules on your opponent and he has no unit, it either makes him leave the game with no gg or fly his buildings for 10 minutes.
I think I'm onto something.

There is no reason to believe deathballs will disappear just because they put in a few new units.

The fundamental issue creating stagnant late games lies in the economic system of SC2 that has always capped economic growth beyond 3 mining bases.

The result of this is that late game economies in SC2 are always more or less equal. The late game then becomes a question of who has the most cost efficient army (and it is this that makes the games boring).

Where in BW you would have asymmetrical economies that forced a passive player with an "imbalanced army" and fewer bases into action, in SC2 the economies just conform and become equal. None of the players has any incentive to be aggressive or to try make the game interesting. All that matters once both players are at 3 bases or above is who is best at preserving their army value.

It's a fundamental issue. Don't expect HotS to fix it. Koreans and stephano are good enough at constantly trading and delaying these stalemate situations that you don't notice them as much, but they still occur often enough.

yup Browder even acknowledged several times that the unit was hard to balance since if it was too useful it'd be totally imba, and his spells still needs to be relevant for it to be more than a detector.
