I'm however really convinced you need storm to fight this composition, and, more importantly, feedbacks. It should then boil down to a control battle which is great. | ||

It should then boil down to a control battle which is great. yea, needs better use of templar for sure. the reason i like to see colossus is because even with abducts they can usually roast a few groups of lings/target down some infestors before dying even with vipers out, and it prevents the zerg from moving around as confidently before the engagement goes full out | ||

Light swarmhost styles are entertaining but alas not as succesful so far. I remember Revival and Soulkey playing around with some really cool 10/12 (10 for Revival, 12 for Soulkey) swarm hosts styles with whom they were very mobile and adapted the rest of their army to the Protoss reaction, but it seems they gave up on it. | ||
