Why can't they?

The disruptor shot is too fast off creep.

you can minimize damage by splitting rofl.

instead of losing 10 hydras and 5 roaches to a shot, you deserve to lose

or 2 lurkers to 2 disruptor shots

The disruptor shot is faster than stimmed bio. If you're not split before the shot it's too late for a decent split with Zerg units.

I think we'll grow tired of Protoss being so reliant on Disruptors, especially in PvP overtime. The unit masks a lot of Protoss weaknesses.

No, that was the norm at Wc3 back then, but in SC2 that has almost never happened at tournaments. They say it takes too long.


Actually quite a few tournaments did that and still do, but people tended to complain about it so the majority is not doing it. I think it got bad rep because once MLG did this "you're up 2 games in a series" thing.

This sick thing is, a disruptor just has to kill 2 ravagers and it already paid for itself. The value of those units is insane.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Yeah 8 lurkers killed about 5-8 stalkers before dying. Great trade.

It's a space control unit. Meant to slow and restrict army movement. It's like a tank. Blunt force wont work with these units.


But as you can see from the game, it's incredibly easy to just avoid them even if they're spread out all over the place. They were directly in his expansion, and spread out all the way to the right next to the cliffs where PartinG wasn't even supposed to reach them. But they just didn't seem to do anything, I don't even know why.

I don't care if disruptor are powerful or not, they're not interesting to me. At least in this matchup.

Both shoot free units, but you are right. Locust could be killed.

Disruptors wouldn't be nearly as effective if Infestors were still a relevant unit. Sadly, current zerg compositions can't immediately punish the protoss blob for being out of position.

What MLG did was pretty different to just a 1 map or 2 map advantage though. It was pretty confusing as well, that didn't help.

micro isn't my strength but I am higher than gold league and even when dilligently controlling a roach hydra army against disruptor it is pretty much impossible to avoid heavy losses.

I didn't know you didn't have wrists but there is no need to be offensive to me

You have to split your lurkers so they don't die to disruptors, but then they can't all attack since they're so spread out right? I'm confused
