    Plague is great, it brings carriers to 3 health leaving only the shield, hugely painful for a carrier masser as carriers have quite low shield, admittingly less useful against terran with restore and heal but i find it can atleast buy you some time.

    You can't count out dark swarm if you're questioning HTs being rigged, its one of the others races equivilant to HTs spells.

    Also, queen spawn broodling molestering HPs works wonders.

    EDIT: damnit and your fast typing

    I've tried to use spawn broodling, believe me.
    There's a huge problem with it tho, it takes a hell of a lot energy and queens are completly defenceless.
    It's not something you can rush, I tried to.
    And as far as Worker rush, it would only work against a noob, since most of the players have a lots of workers and some defences at their main base.

    And Still, I find Psi Storm a hell of a lot more useful than plague.

    i found Plague to be quite useful against Terrans, plague the enemy, wait a few seconds for it to do its full effect, then attack. do to plagues damage being faster than the medics heal, the marines will stay at 1 hp, and the medics will waste their energy if you dont take them away from the effected units, also in those few seconds of waiting you can consume some zerglings, so you can cast Dark Swarm making the Terrans doing very little damage and dieing in one hit from anything.

    but i do agree that the HTs Psi Storm is really frustrating to fight against, and just wish that the Spawn Broodling cost 125 instead of 150 so you can at least cast it twice in a row. but thats just me.

    or if you just want to seriously f$%k with the comp AI you use a dark archon and take a zerg drone then an SCV and get science vessels and defilers so in that regards you are can completely r@pe all protoss.... that method is sure to get you killed if you try it multiplayer because of the severe resources cost.

    Personally, HT aren't even that rigged.
    Sure, I play Zerg or Terran, and it is so ****ing annoying when the ONE HT you missed and didn't have enough energy and you look back at your base to build you Ultralisk Cavern and it charges for enough energy and OWNS your arny that could have won the game.

    Still, Dark Swarm + Plague is ANNOYING, and I use it. Mutalisks OWN M&Ms with the Glave Wurm killing like 3 Marines per shot.

    I still find HT drops so annoying, and too bad my friend starting teching to HT. RUSH TIME!

    BTW - Voted NOOB!
