Episode 03 of IMBALANCED! is here! The thread last time was a lot better, with some great discussion going on! Let's do that again :D We spend a ton of time reading feedback and thinking about the discussions raised in the threads each week.

This week tackles the new VoidRay/Colossus build which has been dominating PvZ. If you haven't ever seen IMBALANCED! before, you should probably go watch episode 01 first, so you understand our definitions of it.

Here it is!:


EnjoY~

And discuss!

nice I love using this build and I feel sorry for the zergs I do it to... I feel I've won tons of games (easily) vs zergs who are significantly better than me doing this

thanks Artosis,but remember PvT more imbalanced than PvZ.

phoenix+colossus more scary than void+colossus.

Yeah, well, it's SO imbalanced that it deserves another episode.
You're stupid. Stop it.

Colossus again?

But yeah, I will agree even before watching that the protoss ball of death is ridiculous in its current form. Against both zerg and terran. Lets see what kind of conclusion you guys make.

Definitely feel like this was a good episode. Went over all the problems with the build. Hopefully this actually makes people realize why there is so much Zerg QQ. If i do say so myself, at around my level (2700 masters) this is probably the most frustrating build to play against as it seems there is no good counter. :<

I watched your previous 2 episodes and thought they were OK. Now we on episode 3 and already back to the colossus. Sorry but you lost me now.

waiting for iNcontrol's show: Balanced.

jkjk, I really love this show. Always very calm and reasonable opinions presented.

Edit: opinion after watching show + Show Spoiler +
Kind of disappointed that this is the first show with an imbalance verdict. I think that you are right though, Zerg's need a buff b/c if you nerf the VR it becomes like the scout from BW, where you only get it to BM your opponent, not to win. As for what that buff could be, i don't know

I think the TL admins wanted you to keep all of these shows in one thread - the second thread was in fact renamed for this purpose.

Other than that, love the show.

A bit disappointed that you're talking about collossus agains.

And also, I feel like this kind of build just allows you to build a TON of corruptors
