The decision to keep producing lings and not immediately going back to droning when the Oracle was revealed was very baffling. Edit: then again, upon reflection, maybe Scarlett simply - upon realizing Neeb was opening 3 Adept Oracle which obviously is a build order win for Protoss - decided to go for a hail mary ling commitment knowing there would no longer be any way of winning without Neeb messing up. | ||

You're in a pretty difficult position decision-wise though if you get no damage done. I was more thinking of the execution with queens slowly walking across the map, lings sitting in the oracle beam without moving, and no defense at all at home.

I don't think it's the biggest thing (though it certainly didn't help). PvZ was zerg favoured even before the nerf, and disruptors were kind of an iffy solution against lurkers since lings kept on intercepting the balls--I thought regular immortal-heavy stuff was better against them even before the nerf. | ||

By Disruptor change, I was thinking the 4.0 one, not the shot delay. | ||

Yeah, the not picking the lings back up into the overlords (or at least moving them away) after the Oracle's Bean had been activated was way way below Scarlett's usual awesomeness | ||

People were going for Immortal/Archon stuff mainly when players like Nerchio went for lurkers pre-patch (though disruptors were certainly also a common response). The existence of the speed-lurker upgrade might change things a bit, but I'm not sure they'd change things in favour of disruptors, since it also means that lurkers could run away from disruptor balls better.

Pre 4.0, Protoss could tech while still taking a 3rd. I imagine the removal of the mothership core is a big part of why that's no longer really done. | ||
