I just hope HOTS does something to make protoss matchups more dynamic. Both PvZ and PvT both appear to have been "solved" if players are of similar skill. In PvZ, it's trying to get an archon toilet against BL-infestor-spines. In PvT it's about having proper HT-Ghost-Colossi-viking ratios and controlling them well. Also notice that these matchups usually come down to maxed armies- that's another thing I would like to see go away.

I really don't think PvT is that bad a matchup now, there's a lot more skirmishing, at least when top Koreans are playing. Agreed with PvZ, but that's as much an issue with Zerg as it is with Protoss

PvT is actually the best non mirror right now.

But yeah, please make PvZ interesting. Buff Stargate, change MS vs BL dynamic, give Zergs better ways to deal with things aside from the Infestor, make both sides have timings that aren't all-in but which are reliable. That would fix a lot.

Glad you made it official. I've been wondering what the best match up is currently.

Armchair wannabe TL mods are the absolute worst, and every thread seems to get first couple of pages of "is this really thread worthy?" kind of responses.

If actual TL mods deem a thread pointless or not worthy, then they will close it down, as they have always done. Why shit up a thread if you dont care/dont think its thread worthy?

Ill be watching this battle report, i had no idea one was coming out. Thread did its job of informing me

Adding agreement with this.
