so the best late game composition is 20 ghosts, vikings and marauder Medivac?

I guess I should be looking up innovation's games to see this sort of stuff then.

Taeja is great no doubt but 2013 - 2014 is too old to be of use, the meta changes too much.

In fact, roaches have been the only unit required to be a progamer for last 3 years.

The late late game TvP meta isn't really any different.

It's still the go-to lategame TvP. Right now it takes much longer to get there though (or doesn't at all) because colossus builds nowadays are made to survive the terran midgame and SCV pulls. That means skipping gas on the third for a while, getting very late storm and focusing on more units midgame. That in turn leaves terrans open to huge 2/2 timings if they tech and expand too greedily. So it's sort of a midgame stalemate where either side can just die immediately if they make a mistake.

Really I blame widow mines.

Only if you have late game understanding of TvP like Taeja did in 2013 and 2014.
Taeja has always had the sickest viking/ghost imo


Yeah, I can't remember him ever losing if he got to the mass orbital ghost/viking stage. And he was better than most people at getting there as well.


Yeah it was so horrible watching Taeja crush Rain...
I felt like crying imba because Taeja was so perfect at it
