Is it just me or have zergs figured out double (and even single) stargate void openers? Just walk your queens over and bring any sort of unit as a support. I feel like zergs are getting bolder and bolder with this. I just played and lost a game where the queen walk started at 41 workers for the zerg! 41 workers at around 5 mins! Crazy right?

Yes, decent Zergs have figured out how to deal with it. I am actually baffled at anyone who thinks voidrays are OP - they just became a viable unit. That’s it. People don’t realize you can win with a roach ravager ling queen push off 2-3 bases against a Protoss who wants to take his third (among many other options).
I think part of the reason why Protoss loses on this front is because of the indecisiveness to choose a tech path. You either make 1 stargate or 3 IMO. If you split between too many tech trees, you are bound to get punished for it. It is expensive to invest in storm, a solid ground army, voidrays + fleet beacon all at the same time. Of course, if your opponent lets you get away with this technology greed, that’s nice too.
Void Rays aren’t OP. Granted I’m a spectator I dabble around against the AI but don’t play competitively. But I watch a lot of game.
If anything is actually OP with toss it’s the shield battery / battery overcharge. But if the balance people do determine protoss is a bit too strong I’d hope they’d just give buffs to other races where they may be struggling. Battery overcharge has made PvP mirror much much better from a spectator standpoint and I think a game play standpoint. Still a lot of nonsense but you get a lot more macro games in PvP now.
Anyway back to the thesis of this post. Void Rays can be dealt with .
Yeah bro, 2 stargate voidray is just bad and weak at this moment in the game, it is not impossible to win, but I think its better to play another thing rather than void rays, because u can die so easily, either to mutas or queen marchs. There was a time i liked to play 1 stargate voidray and go for disruptors intead of a second stargate, and it was working very good, because queen march die against disruptors, but then I realized, that if u do that, u die against mutalisk, and if u play blink voidrays to counter muta, u die against queen march or mass hydra roach, the only way to win a game if u wanna play voidrays, is to scout like a madman, with 2 sentrys or more, otherwise, ur most likely gonna lose, either to mass muta, or queen marchs.
