You let a mine lock and then build a spore.
That feels like it gets rekt more often than not due to the other drones blocking buildings and their dragoon’esque AI when moving away.
It works well vs plain mine drops but not vs the mine+marine drops. The marines dps a drone down before a lock. It also works vs hellion drops and you can pick between spores and evo chambers.
I’ve been experimenting with this style and I absolutely love it. Never had anyone try to morph spores while it was going down tho.
Nobody does it because it gets shut down by a few lings too easily.
Honestly its not about the damage when I do it. It’s about the momentum. But yeah screw lings.
Yeah Stats, learn to play
It’s easy for lings to respond after the unload and if they are there before the unload you are toast. It’s not like a hellbat drop where you can unload on top of lings over a mineral line and still trade well and still kill workers.
Yeah but I’m not playing on the TIPTOP of MMR. So I can meme my way in to victory by unloading in to lings and still winning. btw when are we gonna 1v1 batzy?
BC got nerfed barely go them any more… If you are going BCs in PvT you already lost.
Thors are a solid unit however, Toss has many many hard counters to them. Going Thors in PvT you already lost

This whineterran counts 6-8 Disruptors as…6-8 counters.
Immortals are another counter to them. a hard counter at that
In paper maybe. In PvT Protoss has not the luxury to mass Immortals (you can’t kill 7-8 Thors with 3-4 Immortals). They suck too much to MMM. Hence Disruptor that is a universal ground dominator.
Chargelot stalker archon spam is better for dealing with mech.
Now i am not that dogmatic as to pretend that the only way of dealing with Mech is Disruptor. Sure, there are other play-styles that can do the trick. Each has the pros and cons.
its actually I.A.C. which is the gold standard for dealing with mech. using disrupters, or stalkers, or even to an extent colossus is just toss styling on terran and rubbing it in a little
Colossus to counter Thor/Tanks heavy-Mech?
more of a counter if there is a lot of hellbats/marines mixed in.
or just for style points. the point is that there is a lot of counters to mech some soft counters most hard counters…
guess that’s why most pros go bio… but we are not pros… just regular joes trying to play a game and pass some time
While I agree that Immortal Chargelot Archon is the best way to deal with mech
Just wanna point this fun fact, as a Protoss :
Earlier this season i was having a lot of problems againts battle mech ( Hellbat, tank, cyclone, mines combinaison ) and collossus proved to be quite effective againts hellbat, but then again, I’m not the style of protoss player to favor disruptor, and maybe disruptor base comp would have been stronger.
But yeah, just wanted to point out : Collossus aren’t totally awfull againts Hellbat once you’ve got at least +1
Colossi fry battlemech
I usually get thermal lance colossi, then go disruptor to deal with the standard mech folowup
