Except it's a deathball that starts from the first unit built and is added to all game, unlike the old BL/Infestor/Corruptor where you effectively had to trade away your midgame army.

Protoss is so safe with sentry, MSC, Photon Overcharge and Phoenix it's incredibly hard to break it.

To the P's watching this thinking it's great and funny, you're retarded.

Back to infestors, if you can get some fungels on that ball it might help targeting or atleast to pull back on when Protoss uses that Voidray charge.

As i see it the biggest problem with Protoss is that not only is the race itself the least micro intensive, but it also has the means to bring down any micro potential from Zerg and Terran. I don't know if this is imbalanced or not, but it is incredibly boring to watch.

its insane, the mothership core forces zerg to make zerglings while protoss can take a 3rd at 7-8 minutes with stargate that cant be punished

basically zerg is pressured more than in wol, protoss can be greedier and zerg has the weaker lategame army

Ok guys hear me out, some of you have probably played WoW so you'll be very familiar with the concept.

Viper's abduct= Death Grip

How about if terran/protoss got "Life Grip" which enables you to pull your own units? Could make for some really cool play ^__^

but abduct can also pull your own units!

Not by much actually.

The main villains here are the Void Rays which are now incredibly cost efficient vs the Corruptors. The splash does everything else.

I don't really understand how protoss can get a collosi+voidray+templar/archon composition. That seems crazy expensive...?

Now how does zerg attack a turtling protoss with FF, cannons, and possibly a void ray with a stargate opener (easy to shut down mutas)?

I really don't like this argument. If both players are passive and build tier three armies, one should not be vastly more powerful than the other.

I've been withholding any opinions on balance, but I'm beginning to suspect that void rays are too powerful in ZvP.

And how can zerg be aggressive without just going all-in...

One race has to allin before the other gets an unbeatable death army?

Man, that seems really familiar...

As in it's freaking boring to watch, and yes I agree, the BL/infestor deathball was fucking horrible as well. The whole Protoss going mothership with vortex against Zerg BL/infestor was just as terrible. You really like to argue with people, don't you?
