They are structures, which means zerg can't lose lategame basetrades if they have sh's

Could he have just warped 19 zealots in btw with that 19k and tried to win due to Swarm Hosts were in his base


Meh at that point curious had remade a hatch

Anyway, the swarm host change can't come soon enough. PvZ is just so so so god awful

Ahhh ok :3

Is this the Korean version of All About That Bass? It vaguely sounds like it, and also Wolf said he likes this song and I peg Wolf for a guy who'd love Meghan Trainor.

That was a silver league game so both players A moving was what you would expect.

I don't think that with clumsy units such as the tempest, the void ray and the corruptor there would have been any micro involved that could not have been executed by a plat or diamond player. It's simply boring to see such fights.

I am not disagreeing or anything just trashing that game :D

can't believe HerO lost this game after a forge opening vs a 10 pool.

10 pool vs forge first doesn't put you THAT far behind really if you only make the initial 6 lings and expand immediately after. HerO's initial screw up was not blocking the expansion, because Curious didn't send even one ling to handle the probe in his base, which I was really confused about. HerO even made a cannon just to be safe for whatever reason, making the economic deficit even closer.

Then he gave Zerg econ enough time to stabilize on 3 base before his first poke with the Voids+oracles, and STILL would have done lots of damage to Curious if he had not lost a Void Ray for practically nothing.

Really sloppy play from HerO. Good concepts, but sloppy, sloppy play.

To the people saying that Tempests are better than Carriers in this scenario, im specifically refer to players like Terminator who use Carriers in this scenario to a much higher success rate than i ever see Tempests do.
I like Zerglings... and Banelings... and also Roaches... well, i like ZERG

spores and spines are structures, even if they are not rooted. They are faster on creep than uncharged zealots.

He also had to make extralings to avoid getting cannoned.
Think biggest issue was just being fancy with his strats rather then just doing a fast nexus into 10 gate blink.
Don't think Curious could have done a lot vs that, Even tho the map is fairly open.

Well, I don't know exactly why but over the years here on TL I really overcame my anger towards balance issues, boring playstyles and similar things. I am no longer weeping in anger, but instead feeling bored and passionless whenever a game tends to go in such a direction. It's the action packed, micro intensive, fast paced games that often evolve out of ZvT and TvT (and ZvZ sometimes) StarCraft that get me fired up. The concept of Protoss as a whole stands in the way of me enjoying the game to its full extent . I needed a while to realize that.

Plus carriers can't really protect themselves against viper pulls. Mass tempest will kill something, carriers just get pulled and die.

If you don't plan on microing Carriers are quite better than the Tempests though. Would have helped Hero a lot this game.
Carriers are only good in some timing attack when zerg isn't setup in lategame properly. Once all things are in place they are waste of money. I don't think Hero could have gone them this game.

i think people undervalue carriers greatly. Mass carrier/voidray would have won that game imo.
Tempest are just bad, the last time tempest won against this zerg style was probably zest vs life.
I think Hero had enough time (and stargates) to do it.

I quite enjoy SH games if the level is high enough, I guess I am just very patient :D
But both players need to know what the fuck they are doing, else it's just stupid so I just joke around on LR thread instead.
Want to see a Zest vs Snute bo5 tbh.

Yeah i feel the same tbh.
Imo PvP is the best matchup involving protoss :D
TvP could be great too, IF templar openings would still be a thing.
