PvZ 1 trillion bilion million times better in HotS!


From what I have seen so far of Hots, PvZ is actually the best MU now where it used to be the worst in Wol.

PvZ has changed dramatically for the better. It is so much more active due to changes in the mid-game, and late-game is no longer the Protoss dying a slow death to BL/Infestor.


late-game is the Zerg dying a slow death to tempest/templar :D

Is there a point to building colossus against zerg quickly which is progressing rapidly towards getting hive now?

Surely going straight to high templars. would be safer (or doing one of the scary airtoss builds)


It takes longer time to get templars, and without them you lose your third/die to hydra pushes.

Templars seem like the better choice for sure but collosi are easier to control.

Going straight to templar is actually way more dangerous because it leaves you with a window of time where you have a bunch of templar without any energy/storm to do anything with. With no colossus to fall back on that might be a problem.

I'm realising it's kinda logical to add swarm hosts to the roach-hydra-viper composition, since locusts can use upgrades...

zzzz Tastosis commentating like he is teaching Starcraft2 to a 5 year old.
While I commend him for his undying loyalty to the game, he either needs to actually learn some strategy for the game or shove over for someone with a bit more knowledge of the game...


I don't think you get the grasp of a launch event. It's to promote the game to people that aren't already playing it. Tasteless is doing exactly what he should be doing.

For what it's worth, that is how he casts all the time

As someone who knows the game it is annoying, to someone who has never heard of sc2 it is probably helpful...but imo, that is a very small number of people (people who haven't heard of sc2) because anyone who has played just a few games knows anything tasteless says

Mmmh. I'll take your word for that.

It's seems like a lot of resources to commit to such an expensive unit though.

I think you can start building colossi much faster against zerg and skimping on the immortal count. Then attacking before the vipers are on the field.

It depends on what you scout but they are still viable imo

Let's see if Zerg can keep 2 or 3 base all-inning for months to maintain a 45% winrate like Protoss did in WoL.
