Unless you were watching a different video than I was, there were twice as many zealots and they brought in a few of the new walking anti-swarm tanks of the Protoss to beat that zergling rush, then they all pretty much fell as soon as the remaining morphed into the baneling. You set a comparative troop of upgraded zealots and a few reavers (for the tank units) against a swarm of zerglings in the original Brood War and the results wouldn't be so much different.

Not to mention that they said nothing in the video is final and that they have a lot of balancing work to do, so it's really too early to tell how the tried and true Zerg strategy would work in the new game.
