Its a very polarizing composition, its either gonna be OP or UP but regardless of that it produces some really boring game akin to SH or BL/Infestor of old. It's great to watch in TvT (along with all the other builds). Not sure what makes it more of a deathball comp in TvZ/TvP, but I don't think it's irredeemable. | ||

Curious beat it by preempting it though. | ||

Despite the soul train being a kinda degenerate build, or an extremely degenerate build if you were playing on Ohana, I still think the immortal buff was a good decision overall. | ||

Somebody might say the same thing about some race but they would get banned. | ||

Its good enough that it's viable at GM. But, I hope it never is at top Pro level. | ||
