Zerg is stupid. I currently have 2900 MMR however last season I was sitting comfortably around 32-3400. My biggest pro is macro, my build orders are solid and tight, rarely missing probe production. My micro isn’t the greatest, but I’m good with an army comp of immortals, HT, archons and zealots.

Whenever I try and play a standard game against Zerg, I come in with a push on 2 bases while my 3rd comes up, and try to deny the zergs third. However whenever I do this, it seems my army comp doesn’t matter. If I make zealots they just die to banes. If I make immortals and stalkers they get covered in lings, and the worst, whenever I make the army I want the Zerg seems to just have 200,000 roaches ready enough to cover the entire map and usually I end up winning that initial battle of attrition, but at the cost of many tech units. In the meantime Zerg can make another 1,000 roaches in 0.034 seconds and easily overwhelm me.

It just seems so futile and impossible to play standard against Zerg. The only build orders I’ve managed to win with recently are a 2 base immortal zealot all in, 3 base archon spam with immortals or if somehow the Zerg doesn’t attack me with unlimited amounts of roaches or lurkers, I get enough carriers to delete everything in my path.

I need to play so damn perfect to beat a Zerg player with just enough iq to hold down D and R all game. Forget scouting, if the Zerg wants he’ll just spawn an army that counters mine. Forget harassment, unless I mass oracles it seems like Zerg has a colossally better economy all game due to the ability to spawn an entire mineral line of workers in 15 seconds.

I’m livid. Zerg has to be imba and if it isn’t, Protoss certainly needs a large buff in PvZ. It makes me squirm just thinking about Zerg, it takes so damn long to do things with Protoss while with Zerg is seems like everything is on steroids. I’ll beat the Zerg army, but then there’s just another one. I beat that army, then there’s another one. Anotha one, anotha one, anotha one, should I just play Zerg? It seems pretty easy and fun just being able to throw away as many units as you damn please and still be ahead of your opponent. And lurkers exist. Please tell me I’m not in the wrong for at least thinking this, I haven’t won against Zerg in a while and it’s starting to make me question even playing this game
