i think roach/corrupter will be a good build after this patch, which is a blast to play. upgraded roaches are amazing.

i now have another obstacle in my way when i think about making infestors. they have absurd unit attack prioity (first), and low life/no armor. and now they cant fungal air. they should buff neural parasite if they want to keep this change. they reduced the cost of observers, make NP castable while burrowed. back when i could abuse the burrow->NP bug i felt infestor's were more worthwhile an investment.

i think the change will effect zvz more then zvp. hydras without infestors lose to mutas with upgrades. muta wars it is then.


My games always tried to end up as Roach Corruptor into Broodlords in the first place. I think I'm pretty well off at the moment.

Your never going to win a game with phoenix. I doubt this changes the game all that much, just makes phoenix production mildly more viable.

We'll see if VR really become a counter for Colossi, but I doubt it as they still have to be in Stalker range. We'll see.

I honestly feel like it's also related to thors in TvP, because since they removed the energy bars thors have been toughies to stop.

Umm.... theres usually 2 gates for a few zealots and stalkers....
If i'm correct nony popularize this build vs zerg in the beta.... so it can win the game.. (with some gateway units)
I asked my friend how the ratio at a party was, he replied. "Let's just say for every guy there was two dudes."

Throw in 1-2 voidray may actually work vs an unprepared Zerg. You never know :D

Maybe instead of Fungal locking down flying units it can just slow them down, similar to ensnare in bw.

I'm ready for some chat channels though. Looking like a pretty cool patch, can't wait until we see the final notes!

I'm always one pushing for DRAMATIC changes and this is pretty close, especially with the influx of air based builds in Korea. Can't wait to see how it pans out. Also of note: it's really hard to talk about balance so early and not look silly later on. Anyone remember when pure mech was the most OP thing ever in TvZ? You know what changed? Not a patch but a new technique in muta micro. Remember when Terran was nigh unbeatable yet still a zerg managed to win the BIGGEST TOURNAMENT IN THE WORLD? What happened? Player skill. So we really need to wait to see if anything is a problem at all.

Pheonix can be counter by corruptors easy. It'll change ZvZ match up since mass muta is no longer afraid of fungal growth. I don't use infestor that much anyway so don't really care.

How the fuck do you counter phoenix with corruptors? You do realize phoenix are a lot faster than corruptors? No one cares about not being able to kill phoenix head on, that's easy and only a stupid protoss would engage that way.

The problem is there's no way to deal with phoenix harass properly. There are ways you can limit the damage but in the end, assuming equal skill and high level, a protoss phoenix harass will always be cost effective which is silly.

People saying spores... really? Do you even play the game? They'll damage the shields and then the phoenixes fly away. Would need a lot of bloody spores to deal with them, and that's quite an investment.


Sounds like another flying unit in ZvT, but I can't seem to recall the name. I do know that T had to build turrets to defend against them, though. But still their health regenerated, so any good player would just snipe stuff and leave.


You realize that it takes like 6 minutes for a mutalisk to regen all its health right?

Fungall Growth will NOT be added to the offical game. There is NO counter to phoenix and mutas without it. Any competent player can fly around forever avoiding hydra.


Actually spores counter phoenix just fine. For once Zerg have to deal with a mass of flying units with greater mobility and huge harassment power. Live with it.


you want us to put spore EVERY WHERE on the map ? this is not only the worker harras who make that broken
Just follow July Zerg and make corruptors. They shut down phoenixes reasonably well, and stop the transition into colossus.

In theory a full stack of corruptors can't kill a single phoenix. Speed, y'know. That's what annoys me at least, a good protoss harassing in the midgame had to be aware of infestors, thus actually play carefully when using them. Now he can just run in, kill a few drones and run out without a problem. I mean.. there should be some risk attached to every harassment strategy.

Maybe it is the way Phoenix meant to be. I dont know if you played BW or not, but Phoenix is a replacement for Corsair which give Protoss air superiority in early-mid game. Phoenix is a unit designed to make their oppoent annoyed so I dont think you can comment on that :D
EDIT: And there is of course some risks for Protoss to over produce Phoenix as well. If Protoss make to much Phoenix they will lack ground unit in which Zerg player can emphasize on


well i do agree that phoenix is like corsairs in BW, but i dont see how corsairs can harrass mineral line drones, or units.. basically this made P easier to rush to phoenix, and u see how a mass fleet of phoenix and stalkers could own almost all kind of Z's army composition..

I like everything about this patch except for the fungal change. Hopefully that gets cut before this goes live.

That is a really good suggestion. 20 phoenix shouldn't die because of one fungal, nor should they be invincible. Nice compromise.
