I think Ret is playing really good actually. But Yongwha phoenix control is perfect and that buys him the time to get that composition and once he gets its over.

Dunno if viper/infestors can make a difference.

I know I haven't seen enough games but maybe the void ray needs a bit of toning down?

probably we just haven't figured out a good way to stop it but it looks insane at the moment


i think it was more ret miscontroled his army, his corupters died to the stalkers this time, voidrays were on cooldown
during the first fight. sadly he lost 3 swarmhost before the fight
/edit oh and he lost his oversears before his corupters came into fight to snipe the observer

Guys, remember that unit compisition, its the new ultimate Protoss deathball against Zerg until Blizzard nerfs voidray or make corruptors good against voidrays again.

New? This is just standard two years ago :p

Yeah, I think if they both used energy it would solve a lot of problems. Even so, I still think the prismatic charge would be OP. Or perhaps when you use it, it should drop the void rays' shields.

How do you engage such a Protoss army now? Since the VR-upgrade in HOTS there is no way to beat a Protoss army head on. At least not with air.

Hopefully there wil be a stat figured out soon to combat protoss before they get to this deathball. Those super-deathball games are so boring. Honestly, after watching this tournament so far, I am not keen to play HotS at all. THe current state of the game is just no fun. Just my opinion though

Let's wait a bit before saying this definitely needs a nerf. Come on this is YongHwa vs Ret... Just think about Rets performances for the past year vs YongHwas and that was with WoL zerg...

These IM guys are good at starcraft somehow :O

On another note what's the improvement of PvZ on hots this feels like a throwback to deathballin roid ray/ brolossi of early 2011


ye they are really good and they just play P or T which seems to be a little stronger than Z right now. I hope for all IM semis :D!

Yonghwa is playing so well o_o. This strat seems very very effective. I think Ret needs to do some more aggressive 2 base stuff else Yonghwa will just set up perfectly.

Im not trying to spur any pointless discussion but imagine how much these swarmhosts would kill if they could shot spikes from underground

Should zerg be trying mass muta here? I seem to recall that being the counter to the old void ray/colossus balls that used to be a problem in WoL PvZ. I guess the switch back into Phoenix would be pretty easy though.

Voids will definitely get nerfed after this tournament.

Eh, I think that was more on Ret engaging into the charged voids and having a pretty bad army comp than anything. Lots of hydras and hosts against 4 colossi, and not backing off when he saw prismatic alignment was activated. Only a couple sentries and the MSC was dead, so it's not like he couldn't fall back.
