Yes, we all know corrupters suck vs voids in hots. Thats not up for debate. But you make it sound as if the void ray was designed to counter corrupters. They changed the void ray charge ability because it was "too random" according to David Kim. They end up giving it a charge ability that happens to melt through the most sensible answer to voids that zergs have. | ||

Try Hydra/Queen/Infestor, that should work far better than Corruptors | ||

They end up giving it a charge ability that happens to melt through the most sensible answer to voids that zergs have. The main difference is in WoL Broodlords were so important that people massed so many corruptors (with good reason) that Protoss would not have as good reason to mass Void Rays on a similiar scale. And of course, more stuff beats less stuff, even when it goes against the basic unit design. | ||

He does wacky things and fights back from crazy deficits. Alicia's build, while certainly solid and strong, is just not that fun to watch. Massing an air army and A-moving out just doesn't do it for me. | ||

You can't hate on the man for making them the way they currently are within the game. There shouldn't be any hate directed at anybody or any unit. That's ridiculous. Anyone who is using today's matches as an example of balance is looking at way too small of a sample size. It wasn't like Nestea played amazingly, he made several critical mistakes, while Alicia is pretty experienced with this style. | ||
