The video I linked you is a pro player teaching exactly that technique. I am not going to bother to grab another vod or video about it. You don’t deserve the effort.
For ease of access, here it is again:

Anyways, if you don’t want to, emp the vipers or split the viking affected by parabomb form the rest like maru does here:

You can’t? Drop them. Can’t do either? I don’t know then. I don’t care either. Anyways, your mindless whine is so entertaining to read that your fellow terran players started to call you out for it too. Keep it up!
About protoss, if they fight phoenixes vs corruptors, parabomb is the smallest of their problems.
LOL You’re a liar and a teenager. Early bedtime for an adult, clearly… Anyhow… Yes, if the Protoss are using Phoenixes after the midgame, they are in trouble, aren’t they, because Corruptors are faster, tougher, and do more damage.
What are Protoss supposed to use them, expert man? Oh, Void Rays… which are garbage…? So not Void Rays…
Tempests, then? Which take extra damage from Corruptors and don’t have a fire rate to out DPS Corruptors…? So not Tempests…
Carriers? LOL Wait, Carriers ALSO take extra damage from Corruptors, and their Interceptors do pathetic amounts of damage against Corruptors…? So not Carriers.
The MOTHER SHIP? Which… oh, look… ALSO takes extra damage from Corruptors…? It’s almost as if Corruptors are a counter to EVERY single Protoss Air unit…
But, no… Zerg don’t need to be nerfed, right? You’re the expert… right?
Except that it is potentially a problem? Fungal already does that, and always has; the ZvT air battle has never been a problem for Zerg. Even in WoL, it was fine or favored the Zerg. Zerg doesn’t even need PB to win the air against Terran, because Corruptors already beat vikings, except in unrealistically high numbers or when the vikings have support from turrets or something, and it’s not like Terran has great anti-corruptor ground support for the vikings; the best is widow mines, which aren’t very practical when brood lords are around.
ZvP air battles are just a micro war until PB/NP gets involved. Once PB/NP are in the mix, the Protoss loses, because Voids stop being effective, as they don’t have the range to avoid NP, and don’t have the speed when charged to spread for PB quickly enough to mitigate the damage, and pre-spreading is way less effective against it than it is against Storm due to the radius (and if you pre-spread corruptors well enough vs storm, it isn’t actually worth it to use from the Protoss side, not that I’ve ever seen a Zerg actually do that, but I have tested it out pretty extensively in unit testers).
So you dont even know the unit tester… even the biggest pleb knows, how usefull it is. And still, you dont know it. I wish i could say im surprised, but im not.
Ad hominem hi.
Vipers arent used against phoenix, since phoenix are dead until the lategame… btw, imagine pb in zvz against mutas.
Except for, you know, when the terran splits his vikings, the fungals whiff and all your broodlords die. If the premise of your argument is “the terran is trash” then you need to look no farther than that to explain why he lost.
2.25 radius means that units have to split 4.5 distance apart to really prevent your AOE. Vikings are also relatively slow for air units, so you shouldn’t have trouble hitting.
Lol check fistful of zens profile. Hes a siliver not even gold . Yet balance whines on chat about zerg everyday . I bet hes also a beasty qt sub too as well
I want to point out again that this spaz went from “land them” to “Ghosts with EMP”, yet he thinks anyone should take him seriously for anything other than manual labor of moving goalposts.
“I think Zerg needs to be nerfed, and not just because I won this championship.” - Rogue
“I won because balance really favors Zerg.” - Rogue
“I think ZvT and ZvP late game, I would say if Zerg plays perfect, then Zerg should always win late-game pretty much…” - Serral
And, no, I’m subbed to WinterSC, who plays random. So do I. LOL You Zergbois can’t imagine a universe where people aren’t desperately biased, so much so that you don’t understand that YOU are the one that’s biased.
LMAO Imagine being so stupid that when talking about balance issues with a race in StarCraft, you bring up a race against itself as a justification for a unit to NOT be nerfed…
I have seen Vipers die in battles, but it’s always because the Zerg flubbed their micro and moved the Vipers up in front of their army. You’re right, however, that it is very rare for any pro Zerg player to lose more than a couple Vipers in any given series. Casters go CRAZY when a Zerg actually loses Vipers.
Steady Shot (Ghosts) is Range 10 and can kill Vipers (and Brood Lords) in a single shot, but Range 10 also happens to be the range of Brood Lords and Fungal Growth, and the energy of a Ghost is better reserved for EMP, so, yes, Vipers tend not to get targeted.
Yamato Gun is a Viper killer, but that would require BCs be in the air late game against Zerg, and Corruptors make short work of BCs, and any BC close enough to late game Zerg to YC is close enough to be Abducted and instant gibbed by any Zerg army. BCs end up being Neuraled before they can do anything, anyway.
I only talk about Terrans here, because I can’t think of anything Protoss has that can deal with Vipers even remotely safely. HTs have Feedback, but HTs can’t approach a Viper safely. Feedback is Range 9, and the HTs would have to walk into Brood Lord range to do do it.
Tempests, but you need 5 of them and vision, and getting vision means sacrificing an oracle if the Zerg is paying attention for the pro level, and tempests are so awful in an actual engage when/if the Zerg commits that you can’t really afford to have enough in the army.
Tempests also can’t deal with multiple vipers. They can kill one before it casts, but if the Zerg has 3 or 4, there’s not much point, and trading an oracle for a viper isn’t a good trade for the Protoss, since they need to trade particularly efficiently with the Zerg to have a real chance.
This is true. The problem is Zerg don’t have to make any Supply Economy decisions. They have Corruptors for 2 Supply, and they are faster than Tempest and just devour them, because Tempests are “Massive”.
Also true. It’s really excruciating watching Protoss v Zerg late game. Protoss should just GG out and try again, because it seems (and Serral and Rogue both agreed) that Protoss (and Terran) have no real chance in the late game against Zerg unless the player makes a massive mistake.
