Stalker immortal sentry trades really well vs anything zerg has in the mid to lategame | ||

You need 6 non upgraded Tempest to 1 shot a Brood Lord instead of the previous 4. Is this really a game breaking difference? Weren't tosses getting 6+ Tempest anyways in the super late game vs any late game Zerg composition (Swarm hosts / Broods / Ultras)? Protoss were getting mass tempests because of Swarm Hosts. Usual "turtle" build is mass spore & 20ish swarm hosts with pulls into the defense. You cannot fight this with void rays or carriers, so tempests, because of range  Edit> Or mass corruptors, it's all about abducts, with enough vision you cannot abduct but Protoss is dealing damage. That's basically all | ||

Come to think of it, Protoss is looking more and more like Terran (In vZ, ofc) every day. High micro-based, low-econ army of mostly the same units (stalker/sentry/immortal vs 4M) with one 'dont ling surround me' unit. | ||

The only thing I see that has changed is the fact the the poor Zergs can't defend against mid game pushes as easily any more. | ||

Huge hype leading to hate when the results aren't there. He probably has the best ZvT in the world besides Life but he hasn't proven himself in the other matchups yet. Same thing with Dream. And not gonna lie I'm one of those haters who is enjoying this told you so moment. Not too proud of it. He is still probably one of the favorites to get out of this group behind PartinG but I really wish I picked Myungsick instead of him for my liquibet. | ||

I've been praising Rogue who I consider to be a much stronger player all around than Dark, not surprising this sort of thing happens Edit: Dark is a good player, albeit it overrated | ||
