this series is a perfect example of why it would be dumb to nerf immortals and warp prisms.

Protoss armies just evaporate if the zerg has the right composition.

Give zerg its creep and queen back and call it a day

Well I don't think there was a right storm usage given that there were 19 lurkers and each lurker has 200 hp.

the only real way for protoss to beat lurkers is by going tempest/carrier

storm use was irrelevant

Nah just have billions immortals and get a few disruptors once ur really high supply. I dont think hurricane had many immortals at all for multiple reasons.

in low numbers they work

but against a 5 base zerg that can morph in 19 lurkers at once it's useless. dark is smart and doesnt go lurkers in low numbers

Didn't see the games, but will check the VOD out later. Hope that Dark repeats this beatdown onto Trap and stomps that nerd 4-0 or 4-1.

Hurricane had no economy compared to Dark, he also had a really bad comp.

Zealot/Immo/Archon can defeated lurker comps.

That was worse than a 4-0, Dark just donated a game out of sheer disrespect.

i want to see a Pro tournament replay where protoss can use a ground army to beat a lurker death ball

immortals dont handle a composition with a critical mass of lurkers just like how at high enough numbers siege tanks can fight immortals.

immortals are slower and more expensive than lurkers.

lurkers range of 10 shreds anything protoss can throw at it

5 bases are too much.unless protoss/terran is equal on expand
getting overwhelmed by zerg eco is working as intended.thats how zerg works

I gotta say dude, even as a zerg player the end of game 4 hurt a little bit to watch. There were so many burrowed roaches that you could see them clear as day, and Hurricane clearly saw them but couldn't do anything about it because he didn't have detection. Like, he watched his death in that game come through his walloff and was totally powerless to even attempt to stop it. that shit hurts dude

GGs to dark though, and Trap vs Dark should be an interesting match

yes i understand that part.

I was just referring to your post that about the storm usage and comp

doesnt matter how good hurricane's storm usage wouldve been or how good his ground comp was. there's virtually nothing ground toss could do against a high econ zerg that just busted out 19 lurkers

the splash and range is just absurd compared to what protoss ground armies can do in return

Here:



This isn't super-recent and immortals do cost 25 minerals more now, but this is the best example of immortal vs lurker play I could think of/find without too much thought.

that's not a a lurker death ball

that's 12 lurkers, 5 hydras, and a few lings, vs 14 immortals, 4 archons, 5 high templar, and a few zealots

Dark took the bulk of his hydras away from his lurker army to attack dear's base.
