I think Abduct would destroy Partings comp. Just pick off the Disruptors and then A-move.

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.

yeah and banelings are fast as fuck on creep.

has not stopped terrans before. and they are PRO players. they should be able to spread their units when moving into enemy territory.

I don't agree.

They're still fine in PvT, at least at the start. PartinG used them earlier, then transitioned out.

How to attack into protoss?

It isn't as if you could attack into protoss in hots.

Make mutas

I'm interested in seeing how vipers work.

Focking hilariously

Hilarious for the zerg or for the protoss?

It's really funny to have 25 phoenixes vs mutaball feel awesome go warp in some adepts to defend a ling attack and lose 24 phoenixes

Hilarious for zerg then.

for those of us who have actually played ladder you really can't split or micro vs disruptors

yeah im sorry i don't have wrists

oh and no i don't expect your gold league ass to micro units but solar is a pro


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

Mass ling maek ravager transition to ultra or muta eventually everything else is shit vs disruptor

Actually, it's possible to split lurkers so that at least like 8~9 can attack(providing of course you're not in a complete shit corner of the map with them), and if you're paying attention, you can even unborrow lurkers that are getting targetted and move them back and replace them with new ones.

That of course requires a lot of attention/APM, but it's certainly doable.

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.


Well. We've seen lurkers absolutely wreck entire armies. So they do have a use. Maybe it should be used more like baneling bomb. You can hold command and they will not shoot. So you can shoot when the army is over them.


I'm not sure Solar's spread of them was good. I don't know enough about them yet to say if they are bad, or his spread of them was bad.

They're more reliable in mid game when you only have 1-3 robo bay units, if you miss your disruptor shots terran can stim in with a bigger army and do some serious damage.

I like Lurkers more since once you've properly set them up, they require less babysitting unless the Protoss is doing a full-blown attack on them.

Don't really watch but does Protoss still need the ugly crutch of photon overcharge? Or did they actually fix the gateway.

Yeah, but whining about it when these people do mistakes that we should do, and they shouldn't is the problem. You're probably someone who needs to mildly presplit before moving towards the protoss base, but solar is regarded as the king of legacy. he should know and should prepare for the nuke by spreading at least a little.]
Sorry if you were offended, but I am kinda fed up with the amount of bitching people are doing.

The issue is restricting Protoss mobility so that they are either forced to fight into Lurker range or zoned out into a severe disadvantage. Zerg currently doesn't have a great way to create the former situation or capitalize on the latter.

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.

Pretty much nothing can punish the Protoss blob for being out of position if Protoss controls MSC well enough to not get sniped.
