Come on  because they couldn't make Roach/Hydra cost efficient against deathball Why do protoss get a basic air unit with auto-moving shot thats faster and strongerthan all other basic air units and can harass and take important units out of a fight? Because they couldn't balance gateway units. -_- | ||

Awesome to see PiG finally showing his stuff. PiG is really, really good at the preparation style of play. If there's an obstacle he can't overcome he trains up until he can. Example being iaguz would absolutely destroy him at every tournament last year...but then PiG just worked tirelessly on his ZvT until iaguz couldn't touch him. | ||

Are we back to cheering for Foreigners to win even though we know the style they are using is abusing an obviously bad design? I thought we learned our lesson from the Infestor/Broodlord days. No one should be cheering for this. The fact that foreign Zergs can beat Korean Protoss players with this kind of play is just additional evidence to how broken it is. | ||

That's said this style is retarded, but PiG has controlled well and defended well thus far I'm not saying he is, but the point still stands. We shouldn't be cheering for players to win JUST because they are foreigners especially when they are abusing crap like this. | ||

That means you have to have ground units and static D. When toss reaches late game death ball roaches will melt like nothing and all of your investors/queens will die after that. Without SH zerg can still make static D and cam behind it but has no chance to denie toss expansions. what you said simply isn't correct. roach/hydra/queen/infestor is 100% capable of beating a skytoss push. what part of "skytoss" do you think swarm hosts are necessary to fight? obviously if protoss keeps turtling you have to trade out your roach/hydra, that's how the game works. carriers and tempests are countered in the lategame using a mixture of vipers, corruptors and infestors, and void rays die to queen/infestor plus corruptors, hydras or whatever unit you make for DPS. that's one of the reasons crank lost that game, because carrier/tempest/void ray isn't as strong as ground-based colossus/templar deathballs. the only reason protoss try skytoss against swarm hosts/static d is out of desperation and creativity, it's not because it's the ultimate protoss composition. the ultimate protoss composition is on the ground. | ||

If it was Idra/stephano I would always cheer for them no matter the style they used. l cheered for the zerg even still during infestor/BL days. | ||
